An old boy has been driving this round locally for years:

 

 

 

Same car park

 

 

 

1955 Bantam

 

[Lord Sterling]

That van is great. A true definition of Autoshite. Is that a Montego next to the Bike?

[barrett]

The Thames is utterly perfect! Having not seen a window-ed version for ages, I never realised how much it makes it like an Econoline.

By the bike is a 1400 bubble shaped Sunny

Wedding across the road

 

 

 

Off Ebay as a spares car

 

 

A few years back

 

 

The Farina was absolutely mint

 

 

Not mint but still cool

Some great shots there, the Allegro chop top looks suprisingly good, the wheels could do with improving, i.e. not so mismatched. SS wheels for example...

That Camaro takes rust to a whole new level, how long was it there?!!? I presume its been scrapped now, its funny how at first it looks as if the panel has come off but its simply collapsed.

What is the red oxide-mobile in the flowering garden? Must've been there for aeons.

The Camero is still there but photo is probably a couple of years old now so is going to be in a worse state.

There is also an HC Viva in the garage, I didn't feel brave enough to trespass for the cause (what with Cameros bing murders cars)

sliding doors = what's not to love ?

[simmo]

This was stuck in M4 traffic with me last Sunday

 

 

And the rest of it was in the pick up and trailer

 

 

Some of the old man's motors

 

 

 

 

[simmo]

Dad's old CA

 

 

We bought the TS185 new in its transit crate, was originally destined for the states but a load came here for reason

 

 

Limited edition bonny special (jubilee)

Bump for a real thread

[simmo]

LHD rover 3.5 originally exported to Japan but then returned some time later

 

 

 

We had this ex BT van for years

 

[Torsten2001]

I wonder why the Rover went to Japan as a LHD?

[Milford Cubicle]

Isn't there some kudos attached to owning an LHD car in Japan?

[simmo]

I always thought it was a sort of status thing, all the Mercs seem to be LHD

 

It had carbs but tons of emmissions junk on it
