Tayside classic car show, Errol. Piccies

[drum]

I took some eBay quality phone pics today. In the process put some noses out of joint of the owners of concourse classics adjacent to the following more interesting veehickles.

 

Volvos

 

Avenge me

 

Rovers

Wrong wheels

 

A wide stance and low c of g. ATCNBE

 

Not two horses

 

Voxholls are shite

Want

Moar

 

This brought back memories, I had an identical xl250s back in '84.

 

And the show stealer

[brickwall]

moar!!!!

[Skizzer]

Mmm, lots to like here.  Rekord coupe wins for sheer loucheness, if I had to pick one, although the tide mark Senator is winking at me too.

 

Top marks for ignoring the acres of TR6s, Moggies and Mk2 Escorts, btw.

A superb selection of well-preserved chod, clearly shot by no less than a true connoisseur. I'd happily re-home the Jupiter.

Barry has been at work here, but was the Calibre a model of cavalier? Brain fade kicking in.

[Richard]

Yes it was. IIRC it more or less looked like that other than the wheels.

[drum]

I had a CF 230 which was A reg but was an older model.

[Jim Bell]

Great pics fella.

 

I would have an affair with most of that lot. Speacially all the Swedish stuff.

I've been trying to source body panels for the maestro with partial success. Front wings and panel bought off eBay a couple of months ago but repair panels for the rear arches are like rocking horse shit. Luckily scored a N/S rear wheel arch panel on the 'bay last week and resigned myself to wobbing the O/S.

 

There was no autojumble to speak of at today's show, just one man selling bits and bobs from the back of a van miles* away from the cars on show. But there it was like the holy grail. O/S rear wheel arch repair panel with Maestro chalked across it complete with green Hadrian sticker sticking out from behind some chrome wheel trims! Result.

[brickwall]

A result indeed. Like finding unicorn poop.

Lovely stuff, those Opel Commodore's are a fantastic looking car.

[derskine]

Shit.

Why didn't I know about this.

[Luckythirteen]

Me too. Had I known about this...

[Junkman]

Rekord coupe wins for sheer loucheness,

 

You're selling it short. It's a Commodore B GS/E, no less.

[mercrocker]

Must be my age, but Marinas are starting to look like that mate's mum you knew you shouldn't have been fantasising about...but still did.

Car park chod was fair to middling at this show
 

[drum]

Your pics are much better than mine!

[davidfowler2000]

It was too bright at times. Some of them were a fooking nightmare to get right.

[ayrshirelad]

Some of the pics i took are in this weeks ccb mag including Mr Fowler a certain Amazon with its owner.

[Skizzer]

You're selling it short. It's a Commodore B GS/E, no less.

I stand corrected, and slightly embarrassed.
