Leeds Meet -- Saturday evening diversity

[mk1_4dr]

Last Saturday night was the monthly Leeds HotRod, Yank, Classic and generally anything interesting meet.

This is every second Saturday of the month and even a big American lifestyle show at Newark showground (pictures to come ) on Saturday/Sunday didn't seem to do anything detrimental to the numbers.

I got there late, a combination of working late and SWMBO'd not quite grasping 'rush' : ;D

I had a little natter to one of our newest local members steveandhis244 -- guess which car is his....

 

 

'lil minx

 

Told you it was diverse

 

Bull-nose - looked rough, but the cage and buckets said ready

 

Steve's 'giffer-spec' 244

 

Reincarnation

 

Savoy/Fury/Belvedere? -- Its a Savoy (i think)

 

Hard looking and sounding Morris thou'. Subtle and different.

Standard fare - mini and an old ford

 

Pretty little rod

Awesomely prepped mk2. Not been used in anger though going by the lack of any signs of use

These P1800's give me the horn, good job SWMBO'd likes them too. This is a peach; right colour, gorgeous interior.
