The Rangey has been great, and I agree that classic Rangeys are stunningly good cars, and if I had the cash I would fix it up, but as it is the previous owner may be buying it back from me.

Anyway, one insanely thirsty V8 in the family is enough for anyone, so I'll stick to the Chrysler/Jensen route rather than the Buick/Rover route for the time being!

How old was the Rangey BV, out of curiosity..?

Wasn't this one was it...? Would look rather ace parked next to the Fabboceptor...

Sadly no, although almost as knackered. A 1990 one, so almost modern by my antediluvian standards.

Unpleasant details here:-

That is epic for five hundred sovs, just fabulous. Naff quotient is just nudging far enough over the top to be coming back down to 'ok' levels.... when the good people of Blighty elect me to teh dizzy heights of PM, I shall install you as Minister For Ace Old Transport.

Ding dong squire, ding dong.

My pleasure chief.

Skimming through all fourteen pages and looking at the pics, I'd be so tempted to put a thin white stripe down the side and FIRE! on the bonnet in big white letters! Which reminds me, in the compound alongside the railway at Aynho Junction there's a six wheeled Rangey Fire Tender, been there for some years and gets moved about every now and then. Looks like a Dinky toy missing it's box.

(With apologies for lack of any references to 1969 / 70 Jensen Interceptors...)

I suppose white isn't everyone's favourite but the contrasting red interior hits the right spot for me...

Wrong Star Trek show - Seven of Nine was in Voyager. "Make it so" is a Picardism from TNG. [/geek pedant].

Besides, this thread is for perving rusty old cars, not cyborg space babes in skin tight costumes. Tut!

Are you still in need of an exhaust manifold for this?

Thanks for the link! I had not looked into the JOC forum for a while. That reminds me, I must pay my JOC sub - I am late again.
