I've seen a couple over the years but not recently. Pretty. Today I was in Cambridgeshire. Two spots, both on Trailers. First was being towed on the A14, a Mk 1 Cortina 2 door shell. It looked like it had been stripped, rebuilt but now has surface rust all over it. Tsk! Second was an early Land Rover. A Mk2 I think, in RAF blue with RAF Police markings. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bentwaters81tfw Posted November 14, 2018 Author Share Posted November 14, 2018 Daimler Sovereign circa 1968 on the M5 south of Worcester on Monday last. On a Channel Islands plate. A couple of sports racers on a transporter as well, but I couldn't identify them properly, and an MG TC heading Northbound. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in Lincs Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 On Tuesday I was up in the Leeds area. On a road somewhere West of Leeds I saw an old Atkinson artic. Similar to this one but still working with a trailer on the back. https://www.trucksplanet.com/photo/atkinson/borderer_venturer_searcher_defender_mk2/borderer_venturer_searcher_defender_mk2_17976.jpg I thought @richellis might like it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richellis Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Comfortex work one, on good weather days, fully restored but expected to pay for it self. It’s blue and pulls a matching trailer was it this one? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smithy Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 No photo I'm afraid but today a 69 Mercedes 280S. It brought a tear to my eye as that was the last classic I had in Melbourne before moving here and I miss the old girl something chronic. It was in good nick - not quite as nice as mine back in Oz but very tidy. I still wish I had decided to bring the old girl over here. I've had a lot of classic cars but the Merc was the best everyday car out of all of them, beautiful to drive, comfortable and it even had the almost never seen factory installed roof-rack. I was tempted to wait for whoever owned it and ask what they wanted for the old girl! Fun thread by the way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Rivero Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Hi to all. This is what I got in my shop yesterday! a 1965 Mustang, V-8, automatic transmission. This is what I got today!!! Is the "Nevado de Toluca", first snow it gets for this comming winter, most of the year does not have snow and it is gorgeous! has an altitude of 4600 metes, my town is now at 0°C and we had reain the past two days. Have a great day! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in Lincs Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 @Miguel Rivero That is indeed a lovely looking Mustang. It is of course the not quite so desirable 'Notchback'. Although I like almost any early Mustang. I suspect it was restored a few years ago? But it's nice to see it looking so original. And your part of Mexico is now colder than England! What a crazy planet this is! Thanks for posting the pictures. Pete 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Rivero Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Pete, you are correct this mustang was rebuild some years a go and I will do tooning and bakes. It is in a very good condition and restored. Yes crazy planet we live in! Have a great weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatfingers Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 On the A64 north of York today... A 'proper' Mini on an L plate. It was in great nick and was being driven by a young lass pootling along at 50mph. When i overtook it i realised just how small they really are!

Mr T Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 On the way back from the Great Sheffield Art Show saw an 18 plate yellow Mustang driving very carefully on the M1 northbound. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
