when does the shetland taxi badge happen

Funny you should mention that - seeing as Ford offered them in Taxi spec as long as it's black.......

were the taxi granny's all 1800's, and featured an optional taxi meter?

Not sure, I know they had wipe clean rear seats and floor. I'll check my brochure when I get home.

Do we have a 'Hall of fame' to put this thread in?

[Richard]

I'm a bit concerned that there hasn't been an update. He should have landed at 7:30am and been home within an hour.

40 winks i expect

[inconsistant]

Still a 12 1/2 hour ferry trip to go yet, then another drive from Lerwick. It's quite far.

 

In a world full of people, only some want to fly, Isn't that crazy?

[Sealtainn]

Sorry, been smoking around the island and kids to and from school. Here she is safely home with the Mrs Seals Clio.

This collection was legendary! Well done!

What a hero. Very well played man. Car looks WELL worth the effort. Only one on your island?

Just the end of the beginning hopefully, what a mega collection spread over four days.  Back to work tomorrow is it?!

Not sure, I can't remember seeing one but she is already entered in the Shetland Classic Car Show 2016 and some real treasures tend to come out of the woodwork for that so we shall see if there is another up here.

No thankfully, got the rest of the week off. I booked myself a bed in a shared cabin last night and slept solidly for 10hrs.

She is definitely a keeper, I am making a list of things to do:

New radiator (​​already ordered)

Brake pads as the warning light is flashing on the dash

Replacement front door cards

Replacement drivers sea​​​t

See if I can do something about the cracked dashboard

Investigate why the rev counter seems to be reading lo

Full service

Put the "Red inse​​rts" back on

Double check which alloys were specified when she was new via the part number on the order form

New LCD display on the​​​​ clock due to it "bleeding"

Some underbody rust prevention due to the climate up here

And then keep her lovely and original

Its only a 2 hour crossing but nobody had the heart to wake him up so he went round three times.

I'm likely to be up there with a Transit van later this month if you need any big bits delivered.

[RoadworkUK]

Strewth! Staggering work.

 

Really, really good looking car. Luvverly.

Is it a bit  windy  up there at the minute,  sealtain?     

[Honey Badger]

Epic collection thread Sean.

 

They are good looking cars in saloon form and to me are the best looking Granadas of them all, i do like the Cosworth alloys as well.

Update- it looks as if I won't be going this month after all.
