Ooofff.........that lovely Saab 95 has some hairdriers bolted to the V4

[Ardennes92]

Owner said not overtly fast but about 120bhp at the wheels makes it interesting enough, good turnout again this month but didn't get around the "modern" part of the field

[Mellow Yellow]

I could fill the thread with Pics from the Goodwood Revival car park, here's a few:



Studebaker just as whacky from the rear:

Coolest of them all? SV too:

That's a first for me.
I've never seen how the engine bay looks in a Karmann Ghia.
Also never seen turbo on a SAAB V4,not sure how strong the gearboxes are ?

[quote=Ardennes92]Few more


Don't think I've seen (m)any Zs on an H plate before ... J was the earliest they came here I think. Series II hatch as well ...

I know it is an import though ... so might be a '70 but with the later rear hatch ...

I reckon the designer meant the roof to be on the other way round.

Not when it was new, I think that was very early 80's from memory?

I remember buying the mag just fro the Muira feature

Ah right, thanks

Think he said that the Saab had a competition box, so had 🤞 it doesn't break

Not too many Sunbeam Talbot TI's remaining

Was it a real Ti though....?

Difficult to tell from that photo, given it's a non-standard colour and it hasn't got the Ti front spoiler....among the more obvious things.

Just spotted this.

Here's a beauty I spotted just a little while ago. A really rare RHD Cobra.

I can't believe that nobody has commented on this!

[rakeruk]

Here's another. an MG GTB Le Mans. Saw this at the Belgravia Classic Car show (which I didn't know existed until I passed it one day)

Conversions were done by all sorts of peoppe. I think Intermeccanica were the 'official' company.

Ford never built a Mustang Wagon, but many think they did.

It's not actually. It's a one-of-<1000 Cobra, but a 1-of-??? pre-AutoKraft RHD 289. Registered february 1970. AC made the narrow-fender 289 until late '69.

Mea Culpa. One of the even rarer Genuine ACs with a 3528 cc Rover engine!.
