Retroshite Meet Dunfermline April 28 2013

[seacow]

Bugger me you'd never know that was there - I drive past it most days!!! Hoping to pop up for at least some of the fun!!

 

We aren't going to get any farmers with shot guns "get arf me farking land" are we

[CreepingJesus]

Know what you mean! I go up the other side of it, going to the college now and then, so I've seen it over the hill. I only twigged it was the venue, when I saw the map link.

Shouldn't be any trouble, it's well and truly abandoned...

[kinkersaab]

I think we might make an appearance. Will have mrs ks and 3wee ones with me so might not be there long, but hope to meet a few of you and see some shite. Bringing te Saab.

[cort16]

Hopefully I'll be able to come along but it'll be in something modern and boring.

[DodgyBastard]

It would be good if you can all make it, i was up there today tidying the barn so i think we're all set. Depending on many people turn up and how nice it is we could head to an abandoned petrol station nearby that has a bit more space. There's potentially 50+ cars turning up, personally I'd be happy if anyone managed to turn up. We'll see how it goes. If it's any kind of success maybe we can try organising similar events.

Oh aye there might be someone going who's interested in your 940.

[DodgyBastard]

Don't worry I've not invited any arseholes!

But I am coming? Maybe I didn't actually get an invite

[CreepingJesus]

Quick taster...

[seacow]

Is it still going on?

[Richard]

The last of us left at about 4:45. photies to follow.

[ayrshirelad]

Well i actually made it to this today for a change! Good to see some of the names in the flesh. Excellent turn out too.

[cort16]

Indeed it was. A nice day for it too. I saw an R8 (Audi not Rover) turning up just as I left. Did it go in the shed?

[ayrshirelad]

Said Audi did go ito the shed. It made it without any hassels. Yet one or two others had a very small gap between bottom of the front splitter or air dam and the sheds door! Said Audi parked next to my Ital which meant said Ital was sandwiched betten a Range Rover and a Audi. Not every day that happens!

[DodgyBastard]

Some of my photos,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There were lots of people taking photos so I'm sure there will be more soon...

[Richard]

It was a great day, not least because the weather was good. Here are some of my blurry pictures.

Some people left before we went into the shed, there were still plenty of cars to fill it though.

The E30 got stuck on the gravel, we had to sit on the boot before it would move.

[DodgyBastard]

Gr8 photos, you managed to get yours to turn out pretty good in the barn. I've posted a link to your retroshite album from flickr on facebook, hope that's ok?

[Split_Pin]

Looks like a great day was had. Very nice BMWs there!

No problem, I can't see where you've put the link though.

 

The interior shots were done using my tried and tested "throw enough shit at a wall and some of it is bound to stick" method.
