2 Deloreans and a golf - what a carpark trio 8)

Posted

Nice batch!

 

Particularly liking the windscreen wipers on the "Porsche".

Posted

DeLoreans in parked with doors down shock :shock:

 

What's the camper in the background of the last shot?

Posted

I would never ever want to park one of those scratch magnets in a car park.

SL, I was thinking Sherpa? Early one by the looks of it....

That huge car park looks fantastic for spots.

Posted

Woah. 2x 260 gullwing coupes.

 

 

Like.

R registered Sherpa - could not get a decent angle for a pic so I left that.
Posted

I think one of the DeLoreans often attends the Papplewick Classic Car meets. Nice spots all the same... Sterling for me please.

Posted

:shock::shock::shock:

 

Where are these? I want to live in that yard!

Posted

Some seriously Top Tat! I'll take the red Datsun, the blue Hunter and the CF please.

Posted

i want that red cf van!!! would love that to be hauling my vauxhall crap about.

Posted

That yard is amazing!

 

Im liking the Mini in 1974 condition! Is the owner a collector or are they being broken?

Posted

What a collection... Do we have to go to Stondon, can we go here instead? :lol::lol::lol:

I am putting the Mini and wolseley on ebay for him. As well as an 80's Mini

and a 38.000 mile 323 mazda to go on retro rides for sale. Part of a clearout.

Camry for me please!!! Whats happening with it?

Posted Image

Thats a shame.... I might be interested, if he'll sell it. Any more photos of it?

Posted

Go on Mr.B, you've got a lovely new workshop to fill! Be a shame if it goes for scrap, unless it really is fubar-ed. And even then, wont one of the banger boys have it?

 

What's happening to the Datto? Looks pretty solid

Camry's been off the road since 2005 and is a non starter. It seems to turn over a bit fast so thoughts are cambelt may have gone. Bodyworks a bit crispy in places too. So thats due to be fragged in the next couple of days as its worth more that way than selling. 120Y's Awating mot work allthough I expect the right offer could buy it.

GR8!

I love it when places like this are discovered, an autoshiter's, and banger racer's, dream come true!

You don’t know what Bo11ox is prepared to pay...

 

Shame though, looks to be the fancy-spec model. I wonder if that green one down near me that was for sale on RR is still available?

Posted

Wow! Great pictures Mr Rootes, that yard is amazing. I remember some similar yard like that here in Belguim. There is still quite a lot of shite around and about as I've been seeing of late.

 

Usual request, can I use the Rover 800 pics over at the R800 site?

 

Thanks,

Yes no probs :D

Hmm, I imagine the weigh-in value of the camry is about £150-175? I kind of reluctantly accept that this the smallest amount of money you can argue a car price down to these days no matter how shitty it is. To be fair i'm off on holiday for a fortnight starting tomorrow.... i'm not getting a vibe that the moons are lining up very well for saving this one though I did check the availability of front wings (you can still get em!!!!!)

Posted

To be fair it not just the wings it needs other bodywork too. Its the potential snapped cambelt thats the killer :cry:
