Shitpez sights - 13.06.14

[Jim Bell]

Spots on the road, at local meets, and parked up back alleys.

I like pics, its like steeling a bit of someone elses chod.

You sound like every woman thats ever been disapointed with me.

 

Im spent.

 

Let me rest.

 

More fun another time.

[dollywobbler]

Fabulous. A wonderful mix of shite there. Series 1 Rover P6s work so well in dark colours.

[trigger]

Love of the Mk3 Cortina 2000E in the same colour as mine, naturally.

 

Cheers for sharing.

[skattrd]

Top spotting sir.

Is that a Nova kit car? I've never seen one in the metal/plastic.

[RoadworkUK]

A spot of spot-on spotting. I'll take the Jaguar (Lister?) Le Mans, ta.

[Mr_Bo11ox]

I like that beige SD1,is it 'on the market'? Looks in good nick, supa pasic, and a shite colour. Brilliant!

[michiel]

 

Don't know it this was taken like this intentionally, but I love it. And the Zod/Zep shot.

It is indeed a Nova. Seeing the rigmarole of getting the lid shut put me off it a bit. Takes two people (one out, one in) and about 10 mins of fiddling to get it closed properly.

Both those poor beige-rs sat outside the Spanish City in Whitley Bay till the tyres went flat. They always looked in reasonable fettle, but never moved.

When the renovation of Spanish City started, they disapeared. Well, that sounds a bit dramatic. They were probably just moved.

[pandarus]

Just when i thought it couldnt get any better a Panda pops up.

 

Someone likes Vivas. I learned to drive in an HC...it felt huge. My dad owned an ha, 2 x hb's and 4 hc's. I'm pretty sure at least 3 of the hc's were that funny green colour!

!

 

Did someone say Pandapops?

Just for you fella.

 

 

 

 

Jaunty angle!

Very autistic.

[Spiny Norman]

Great selection of old motors, love the colour of the DS, & that Commodore Coupe is a rare beast now.

[Split_Pin]

 

DVLA says 1493cc, the clearly intentional relocation of the reggo to aid cooling to what looks like an intercooler and the big feck-off pipes going to and from hell knows what says otherwise.

 

I'll fantasise that this is a scruffy but stupidly quick motor, with like 300BHP or something

[kinkersaab]

^ whats betting that has a saab slant four turbo in it...derived from the triumph lump I believe...

[Jim Bell]

It had a rover v8 on a twin SUs at that time.

Then injection.

 

Think it's still in pieces now. There's a build thread on Blue Board Forum.

Its an epic little car. First gear is absolutely redundant of course.

[Guest]

 

 

 

I've just quite literally shreaded the V5s for both of those two cars, and I've got the keys to them in my drawer. They were supposed to have been crushed.....

[Jim Bell]

Those pics are at least 3 years old, so they may well be. Shame, as they both looked well enough (3 years ago).

[Guest]

Ah! Are the outside of the old Spanish City then?

[Mr_Bo11ox]

I didnt realise theyre both LHD. Whats the story then?

[Jim Bell]

Ah! Are the outside of the old Spanish City then?

 

Yup. I did say so, a few posts back. I think.

[The Reverend Bluejeans]

 

 

 

 

 

 

That is just lovely. You could park that in Monaco and get respect, amazing when they're worth so little.

[Jack_Harpers_Teeth]

 

Autoshite's GJR 11L's former car "Dougie". Nice to see he's still around with cable tied overrider.

[RichardMoss]

The HB Viva GT is lovely

[GJR 11L]

Alan, that was when I owned him, in fact I'd say it's around 3 years ago. I would, but Ben already said it.

 

Please take 11 lines: "I must read VND's posts properly!"

 

Anyway, thanks for giving me the link to here and to possibly my first Autoshite post in, erm, probably around 3 years too....

Must come here more often rather than settle for whoring myself on the Practical Classics board. Meanwhile, if any shiters should happen to know where PKE is these days, please do tell, I miss the old thing, one of only two truly reliable cars I've ever owned** during the 3 years and 43,000 miles I added to his original 40k. The shell was still utterly free of rot when I parted with the brown one and was so soaked in Ensis V that I'd expect the car to have survived somewhere.

 

**Had 73 cars registered in my name since 1981, the two that I'd trust to get me there and back again? 1972 Dolomite autos both, ACU & PKE.

 

Alan, note that my indicator lens were the correct way on in that pic, there's a thing you don't see too often.

[Jim Bell]

I saw it on Carandclassic? Advertised with a running problem, but that was years ago too. It was a lovely thing. Sure it still is!

What's your current steed now John?

[GJR 11L]

Sadly, I don't have a working old jamjar at the moment, but the Smart's sufficiently bananas to prevent my dying of automotive boredom and my (very) long term ancient shiter is still locked safely away up in the arse end of the middle of the back of beyond. That's my '72 Fiat 500 which is about as much use to me as tits on a fish, but it's a family thing so much as I'd like to swap it for an early Range Rover, it's still got to be reassembled.

[Jack_Harpers_Teeth]

Hello John!

 

Practical Classics? Pah!?! this is where the action is. I have done my 11 lines, you now need to write 12 times "I must post on Autoshite as it gud". Do it before 11 though as that is when everything ends.

Funny you should say that....this I found on facebook;
