COOL CLASSIC CAR SPOTTERS POST! (Vol 3)

[Its Just Adz]

Popped round to a friends this morning, pleasantly surprised to see this in his garage.

[Dapster]

In and around Highgate this weekend









This looked like it was being worked on rather than being left to die

Spotted in Ludlow... sporting a V12 badge.

Is he looking sulky because she's got pissed?

Rohypnol.

Annoyed to not get a photo, because it's so unusual to see one, but I passed a 1976 Vauxhall Chevette 3-door hatch on Saturday. For something that was once so numerous on the roads (I'm a '70s child), and later on my dad's driveway being repaired for some friend or relative, it's years since I saw even one. I was far more enthused about spotting this than any number of MGs or Ferraris.

Not this example, but I saw a very tidy one of these, in this colour, heading into Coventry this morning.

I had one of these once, same year etc, well, 34 years ago - but it was nowhere near as nice as that one.

Spotted in the workshop where my Impreza is being fixed:

I love it when people do this.

It's so funny.

There's a 3-door Chevette I see regularly in Swindon, I think I posted it on an earlier version of this thread once. Seems to be a daily driver - it's driven by an old boy who often seems to stop on one quiet motorway bridge with a thermos and watch the traffic.

Thanks for that photo. Paul is a very clever bloke who contributes a lot to the Midget and Sprite forum that I follow. An absolute ninja it seems on diff rebuilds, but posts lots of informative and interesting stuff.

Pair of convertibles in the local indy this morning...



One a little more bespoke than the other, wearing 335 section rears...



Couldn’t get a good shot whilst it’s in the workshop, and some of the details are a little awkward, but...



Apparently started life as a Strosek and was then converted by Jurinek - 1 of just 14.

Not my thing, but something different and interesting I suppose.

[PomBstard]

Nor mine, or Bruce's for that matter. Has S4 front and rear, but S2 engine, which has only done about 35,000km, and auto box. Conversion does look quite well finished, and is indeed something different
