Gotta love the perspective on that one :lol:

Will you ever cease to amaze us?
Please don't.
 
Absolutely gorgeous shots Rue, the Dinos and Pagoda SL are almost enough to make grown men weep.

I've nothing like as special, but this was on a dealer forecourt I went to recently, so I had a look around it:

Big fan of original Insights. This one is missing its rear wheel aero spats, as you can see.

Thanks mate! :)

How much was the Insight going for? I reckon the originals in good condition might be worth a bit further down the line.
 
After commandeering my friend's iPod Touch (Mine doesn't have a camera), I managed to get some pics from the Burger King's classic car show held every Friday.
Please excuse the crap quality.

I think the first unknown is a Monte Carlo, and the first Unknown B is a Bel Air. Can't really make out the others.
 
On October 21 I met with Poolhaas at the Zolder circuit in Belgium. Racing was a bit bland to be honest, but the side show with exotic cars was just brilliant.

Went to an auction at Haynes Motor Museum today, and managed to take a sneak peak in one of the side doors. I probably wasn't allowed to be in there but when you see the pictures you will understand why. And btw this is just a fraction of the car collection they have here (I will make them quite small):

I like the haynes collection, quite a few neat cars, the Bricklin, Gary Belchers ancient V12 T bucket and loads of quirky little british cars
Like a fool I went to goodwood breakfast club yesterday, at 11, so there were about 10 cars left! Or maybe that's all that showed up! anyway, it turned out quite fortunate as this legend rolled in as the stragglers were leaving. Ray Christopher's GTD40 mini!

Sorry for the bad quality (what's new?) But my phone camera wasn't cooperating.
 
Lincoln Continental Mark V '78





Definitely not the prettiest Continental, but it is the biggest. :drool:

I'm good friends with the manager of the dealer, and he let me go out and start it. Being my first time starting a carbureted car, and being 32 degrees (Fahrenheit, 0 degrees Celsius) outside, I had some trouble getting it to start. He actually said I could drive it, but I didn't really want to, being 19.5 feet long, and all.
