  2. I'll have the '71 Alfa, assuming the chassis hasn't collapsed.

    This as it’s identical to my old one and I feel nostalgic now I’ve seen it. It’s a bit more money than mine though, I think I paid £525 secondhand for mine in 1979

    Look at how proud I am of it. That’s my first camper in the distance too 20 years old and the world at my feet

    I’ll be interested to see how much the blue Westy goes for, although the last but one photo, where the rear bodywork meets the sill, would put me off a bit, magnet time.

    The sliding door repair looks a bit iffy too as you can't really see the sill underneath it in any of the photos.

    I thought maybe you’d be after one of those Yankee gas guzzlers, drive it back n forth outside Greta’s gaff :thumbsup:. I do like the Impala I have to say.

    Should have been my first car but in blue. A guy jumped in and offered him more behind my back :mad:

  10. I caught Greta doing donuts in her Corvette the other day :rolleyes:. Told her off, she said I'd ruined her childhood.

    Everywhere the restoration skills and detail are visible it's a wreck. Check out the welding you can see in the engine compartment. I'd have no confidence in any part of this one.

    The red classic range rover - mainly as I have the same one in the same colour but it terrible condition.

    Like the Feugo Turbo simply because not seen one in decades, and the red ish Imprezza is the pick of the bunch.
     
  15. I think I'd have the Po-po car.

    Driving down the motorway at 60 watching a queue forming behind you... priceless.

    No one jumping for the Marina/Ital Pick up?

  17. I'm quite tempted by the Bentley Continental. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to afford the petrol to get it home.

    Be interesting to see what this 96 makes. One of the best cars I ever had

    The Sebring Exalt looks like fun, a lightweight kit car with a 6 litre V8!

    I've always been a fan of ridiculously large engines in small light cars since I had a 3 litre V6 Marcos as the world’s most unlikely company car. When we go to Goodwood, TVR Griffiths always go well on the track, they are tiny, and have a Ford 5 litre V8 and a fibreglass body. They also sound magnificent.

    All fun and games until you’re upside down in a hedge, on fire. Not for everyone, especially not Greta.
