HMC Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Streatham 1989. Action packed scene; VDP metro, xj40, decaying mk2 escorts and mini, plus a body kitted rx7 and a very confused man with a bunch of traffic cones.

HMC Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Streatham 1989; under construction. L and LX escorts showing trim variations, and a very tired Datsun van that lasted another 18 months before being scrapped.

paulplom Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 My 1st work van when I was serving my time was an orange one like that. 2.0 pinto iirc and a 1985 b reg. It didn't half take some hammer, by two wanna 19 year old wannabe boy racers. I remember it getting a new passenger wing fitted and sparyed 2 shades too light. the drivers step also crumbled and was replaced. When it died it was replaced with the newer model transit in blue and also a petrol. 1990 it was, almost 30 years ago ffs! Tenmil Socket 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EssDeeWon Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 A few spacecruisers in the Steatham 1989 shots. Forgot they used to be quite common cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMC Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 @EssDeeWon my logic was that it was the same one - the photographer’s as they were always parked and not driven in the shot but as you say, they could be different silver space cruisers.

Yes quite possibly, I remember silver being a common colour, however you could be right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
