^^ What he said ^^Does anyone ever watch that 'Chasing classic cars' on Discovery?? I'm not really into the older cars, but I do appreciate the beauty in these machines, and find that programme quite entertaining, especially to see what sort of prices he gets for the cars he has.
this was a week before our honeymoon in that area 2 years bac. We would have loved to go...
Thankfully the polishing bit has calmed down a bit these days. Back in the late 80s/early 90s, they could do anythign to the cars as long as it was clean. So you had 30s Alfas with snakeskin upholstry but not a spot of dust anywhere. I mean anywhere. The judges used to use a modified broomstick handle to check for soot in the exhaust pipe...
