HULLOOOO

[mercrocker]

Good day to you all fellow shiters of the automobile variety....Have stalked this site for many a month and it has wasted many an hour on mirthful frippery.   So, I thought it would be rude not to introduce myself.   I did not choose autoshitedom but rather had it thrust upon me by many frittered pound notes on marriagery, shite jobs, beer and inadequate polishing skills.   It is now compounded by the refusal to buy, drive or tip petrol into anything that has a cat, airbag, digital display or silly numberplate with things like Zs in them....Enough of me what of my shite?

 

Merc 190E 1.8 given to the present Mrs Mercrocker in exchange for letting me euthanise her Microbe.   This car has almost no rust but I am working on that... 

VW T25 camper - Now this is shite.   It would be proper autoshite were it not for the scene that thankfully seems to be giving them a bodyswerve in favour of vastly overpriced and frankly dull T4s.   De-rusted once at great expense all the little brown molecules seem to have defected to un-repaired parts...

Morris Oxford (A60 style) - Either dead or sleeping but its still rusting well, it will only be the fibreglass wing left before long....

Morris Minor - My daily driver, likened to a creepy village verger who likes to be beaten whilst inappropiately dressed.   

Morris Cowley - God knows why but  I rescued this from a scrapyard because I had five quid left in my bank account one month and thought my finances had turned the corner... It is on the road in the sense that its no longer lying on its side.   Actually drives  better than all my other vehicles 

We also (I say we cos this one wasnt my idea) tolerate a folding caravan that we thought would be nice to take on holidays behind one of the old cars but they cried when we showed them....

 

Look forward to bantering with some of you and sharing moments of motoring cackness

[Mr Livered]

Welcome along. Your fleet sounds good - pictures please!

[brickwall]

Welcome to the house. Pics?

[Novanick1]

Welcome to the forum, your fleet sounds cool, can we have pics?

[mercrocker]

as requested....these are not the best pics which are on a cockfiddly old sd card that doesnt seem to work anymore.  Do not be misled by the apparent lack of scab some of these are pre-prod session!

[mercrocker]

Goddam that didnt work....How do I add pics, anyone??!

[daveb47]

[DVee8]

A beige merc in front of a beige house you'll fit in well

[Angrydicky]

Love the Cowley!

[Cavcraft]

Welcome in!

[mercrocker]

Thanks for all your well cumms think I am going to like it here....Angry, you have a class fleet too, esp. that Atlantic !

[Jim Bell]

Welcome in fella. Nice fleet indeed.

[AndyW201]

A smoke silver pov spec 190e? Excellent stuff. The rest of the fleet gets a thumbs up also.

 

I think you'll fit in nicely here!

[Junkman]

Fuggin ace, man.

 

For some odd reason your nick caused my twisted mind to make this association

 

 

rather than link it to some chod from Stuttgart.

[Skizzer]

Oh yes, a fleet to be proud of.  Though possibly only on here.  Which is, after all, what matters.

 

Welcome.

[cort16]

oh, hello

[mercrocker]

not the first time posh US fords have been linked to the name, junkman...but its better than morrisrocker which kind of conjures up barely thinkable images involving wood-smacking, bells, hankies and lewis leathers....

[holbeck]

Nice.

 

I'm loving the Morris action.

[dollywobbler]

I R LUVIN UR PICZ. Old Morrises are entirely brilliant.

[Partridge]

That Merc is too good to be shite.
