The Granada's gone now-it was a 4x4 police spec model 8) Which gains access to this

Which is a police spec v6 from 1971 :shock:

Heres the granada in the yard

Fitted with leather at a later date as the police spec was cloth

Even after standing started fine with a charged battery-sounds sweet

great spots man,you dont know how often im looking for shite on flickr and its you pics that come up.i like these grannys, you dont happen to have a picture of the blue recovery van behind it do you?

Posted

That is such a nice car, even covered in grime. So does this yard owner just locate cars and secure them when they are unwanted? Please tell me the Granada isnt being scrapped....

No I dont----yet :wink:

The yard owners son plans to return it to the road. Its a cracking car-very clean in the engine bay/door pillers etc. He's a scrap dealers but hangs on to the interesting stuff.

Thank you very much. :D That looks great i love recovery conversions like that. For some reason i keep dreaming of a Bedford ice cream van with one of them out the back.

wow great pics squire cant remember the last time i saw a Corsair :?

Posted

That Gordini Turbo is really, really nice. I'm really feeling the S1 R5 love at the moment.top spots, as always.

Posted

Love the Corsair,that Prefect looks nice,great patina in the interior.

Posted

That Gordini is fab.. but is that sunroof and aftermarket one? I am not that bothered about such things but they can slightly spoil what looks like quite a solid/standard example...Period modification to some extent so could be classed as still 'retro' i guess.

Posted

Every Gordini I've seen from around that time has had a glass 'roof, so I suspect it's been there from new.I despise that type of sunroof.

Has that Bond been spotted before by someone? I'm sure I remember the roof tile+ brick anti- theft device. Needs to be saved badly....one day i'm going to learn how to weld/do mechanical shit and then i wont have to sit here passively sighing at things like that :(
