But not a very good one.

Coming up as a 1990 Chevrolet 5700cc

It was badged as a Chevrolet and sounded pretty fruity.

My GF also managed this picture with a 2CV flat bed going past. 2 for the price of one.

Looking at the badges, it's not trying to be a Ferrari which is always good!

Could it be a recreation of a Chevrolet endurance racing car (Sebring, Daytona or Monza)? I don't know enough about GM's mid to late '60s racing activities, apart from the fact they weren't 'officially' doing anything from the end of '63 for a couple of years. That killed the Gran Sport stone dead.

Nothing like that I'm aware of during that period.

Only thing I can think of was the Bill Thomas Cheetah's, but it's not even a close replica of one of those.

Interesting thing.

Looking at GTOs on Images ,the rear window is not even close to a real one's.

TVR Taimar Turbo (guess how Iknow...) at the SS Great Britain yesterday.



Overfinch-badged Range Rover in Marlborough this morning, next to a 65-plate RR Sport for comparison.

Maybe that's why my 5-year-old preferred it! But he has been raised on less than brand-new cars.

Nice old Land Rover seen in Newcastle under Lyme today.

A series 1, so ten or more years older than its plate !

[Pericoloso]

By coincidence one of these coming up in my local auction next week in Suffolk.

Yes, yes, I know it's not a car but I'm putting it here anyway.





1961 Lambretta - LI if my memory serves me correctly. The owner said it needed taking apart and cleaning. It really didn't. Immaculate.

And apparently he has heard all the Unexploded Bomb jokes.

Was cycling along a lane near home this morning minding my own business when something came up behind me just as I was approaching a blind corner. Sensibly, the driver had the patience to wait until he could see to overtake. I was a bit perplexed, as from the sound I couldn't work out what it was (as in, car, bus, truck, 4x4).

I almost fell off my bike when it overtook me...Ferrari 500 Superfast, one of 8 RHD, in stunning condition. This is the car, courtesy of Tom Hartley Jnr website..
