chaseracer Posted December 29, 2010 Author Share Posted December 29, 2010 That's been quite some house in its day. Do you know where it is CR?That is Sharpcliffe Hall, near Ipstones in the Staffordshire Moorlands. Still partly occupied, amazingly. Remember when Capris looked like that? Tim, where's that incredible fire victim with the AC Aceca (??) out front? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrett Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Tim, where's that incredible fire victim with the AC Aceca (??) out front? Yep, that's an Aceca! I've seen photos of that place before, but never that one, and I cannae remember where it is. It's been on here before though I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddyramrod Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Mine, but I don't think that excludes it, especially as neither the house nor the car are mine any more. This is the house I grew up in from four months old, and where my father lived at his death in 2005. The copcar was my consolation purchase (off ebay, blind) which turned out to be a much bigger project than I expected or could handle. When I finally cleared it out I sold the house to my stepson as a project, and he's done a lovely job of restoration and sympathetic upgrading. So it's still in the family. I put the car back on ebay after two years; it went to Wales and was back on ebay within a couple of months. I suspect it's dead now, but at least I can say I had a black-and-white American police car, believed ex-LAPD, which is something I always wanted. cros 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrett Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Ah Mavisbank that's the place!I've only seen a couple of photos of that place before, but this guy has loads on his photostream.This one is the caravan where the owner lived after it burnt down - that white coupe is a 1st series Bond Equipe GT Mavisbank House (11) by Royan@Flickr, on Flickr And here's that Aceca again. Check out the rest of them, they are all great. I'd like to see more from before it was gutted but still being used as a yard though.Mavisbank House 1980s by Royan@Flickr, on Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
