DRIVE IT DAY APRIL 27TH.. YOUR PLANS

Got something to say, but it's not classic related? Here's the place to discuss. Also includes the once ever-so-popular word association thread... (although we've had to start from scratch with it - sorry!)

Off to the National Arboretum near Burton on Trent with the Dodge WC51 Weapon Carrier and the Willys MB. Always a great turn out of classics.

Thanks luxobarge for pointing me at this topic.

People often say, “Pigs might fly”, to describe an unlikely occurrence. In point of fact, “Pigs” often fly over Britain and crap all over it, as they go. The Met Office make up stories, that purport to predict passage of said “Pigs”, whilst their real purpose is to hone the lie telling skills, of those hoping to make a career in politics.

In essence, if it is fine on Sunday morning, I will take the V8 for a spin. If it is not, I will no doubt curse the f****** pig s^it and leave the car in the garage :!:

Pigs do fly. One was hovering over fields by me at 2-00 am this morning!

I do like that TF :!: I'd very much like a TA or TB; not because I prefer them to the TC, D & F but they are eligible for VSCC events. I'd very much like an M type.

I thought my 1974 BGT V8 was low mileage, at just over 47000 until, I saw the mileage of your P6 :!:
