A small shite dump, just a few plip-ploppy ones, like

Since I killed my Photobucket with fire, my old shite threads are now fragged, so I thought I'd share some more recent ones from my Flucker stream.

 

I cant be arsed with all the Coopers/clones, but I do love the cooking special edition versions. I have a decent'ish Corgi collection of them. As such, this Mini Sidewalk enticed me down the sidestreet I kept seeing it travelling along from my office window. This is how I like Minis:

I'm amazed there's still an LDV on the go, with Falkirk. Not because it's an old LDV, but because Falkirk S.O. are notorious. You should see the wrecks on their Wall Of Shame...:-o

I remember when a Mitsi wanker would utterly dwarf a Fiesta and terrify its occupants, but that old chugger/new Fester combo makes me think the Ford would be the place to be sitting if the two were to meet head on.

Nice photos mate! I've seen the posh landcrab in the Asda at chesser a few times, looks lovely! I'll be looking for that Mini tomorrow

YES!

Clearly a decorator's van conversion! See how he's painted over the inside oft' glass? Brilliant. He got some splatters outside too.

 

Those ain't Rover wheels are they?

Scrapyard specials from a Coarser or summert.

The Troner is class, is that the one somebody thought had gone missing a while back now? Shame if it's been weighed off.

That LDV is such a sight for sore eyes. When I left the clucthes of the 'Royal Mail' back in 2001, the eldest crock they had on the blend was all of 3 years old. How times change!

... the wheels are from a Renner.

Knew I recognised 'em!

I have a bent 14" rim like that off a Clio kicking around here.

That Wall Of Shame was alarming: what was worse was that it seemed to be a badge of honour to have multiple photos on there.

I picked up a 9 month old Astra van they'd rented once. Never washed or serviced, mercilessly thrashed. The EML came on halfway back to Broxburn and the turbo went for a catnap. At least it didn't end up upside-down in the canal...
