B reg ford capri 2.8 injection black looked mint at tesco in calmore totton Southampton

The sun was bright the weather warm (mygrain just held at bay) just popped less than
1/2 a mile to the village car show enjoy!(Blackhalls anual car show for charity on sunday)

Please note that the caravan wa from Bemish and two curators as caravaners in period dress.

Apparently Bemish are going to be dismantling and recreating the Londis shop from the
village at Bemish along with a cinema which belongs to someone my dad knows.


















































































And this belongs to Brian of Blackhall tyre centre behind the co-op who is a no nonsens
old fashioned mechanic







Sunroof? no Smoking hatch to let the smoke out the top, and let the rain in as it's not
an austin if it doesn't leak apparently!

@ the ultra shiny Fergie! I'm also attracted to the (Antique Gold? Too young to be Harvest or Limeflower, not yellow enough to be Sandglow) Allegro.
As for the caravan, I can see the appeal of that, indeed there's a field full with the things just along the coast but, for authenticity, there should be a Transit pickup and some horses nearby.

love the allegro, i 1 had the same colour fergie is nice too

These all appeared on farcebook today. Seeing as John has a fetish for them I have shamelessly stolen the pics to re-post here
I am fairly sure they are named correctly (kitten / fox) but i'm sure i'll be corrected shortly if not.

It would have been reckless of me to try and photograph it whilst driving. Heading south, on the A34, last night, was a car transporter laden with 1950's American classics, seven all told. Amazing!

Terry, that green saloon is one of mine! Only it isn't, because mine is still its original shade of osmosis-prone turquoise and it's seen here, with my red estate which was there to help TEK to wake up after his winter rest:



Any chance of knowing where the doppelgänger is please?

(Not an exact replica as the real TEK has a full set (including spare) of original wheels, that green one has mini steels in their place, quite common as mini people often borrow the Reliant alloys to make their overweight, steel bodied shopping trolleys look better! )

All the images were posted today on the "Unloved Classic and Retro cars" group on FB. No notes on where they were spotted but if you are genuinely interested (and no a member) i'll ask for you

Sorry Terry, I should have noticed earlier that the images came from the book of face, you said it clearly enough after all , so I'll build myself a FB user ID and go in to observe. Here's hoping that I don't suffer too many bites from the vipers as I walk all over their nest..

john on the book of face??
