keefr22 Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Earlier this week, on the way back from the tip had to give way at two different roundabouts to an immaculate Mk2 Cortina 1600E and then a Trabant 601....!! Then next day stopped on the other side of a dual carriageway, a 57 Chevy, followed shortly after by a fully rally prepared Mk2 Escort coming toward us.

Pete in Lincs Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Out near Spalding today, In a garden near Holbeach I spotted from the cab of the truck, an early Mustang soft top in what looked like barn find condition. In Moulton seas end is a garage that seems to specialize in GRP car restorations, they had at least four Elans in the forecourt area. In the village of Lutton, on a driveway, what looked like a freshly restored Mk1 Cortina estate. How rare are they? Near Sleaford was a red MGB on early Dutch plates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
