I was expecting the car group shots but the architecture kept me (and Photoshop!) busy for a while!

















And this one's especially for Crankedup:

Superb photos, as usual thumbup
I can't believe the sun wasn't out though. It was scorching down in Reading.

I soooo wanted to go to that meet! Ah, well perhaps it will happen again?




What is this car by the way? I bet Crankedup would just love to get his hands on it smile

Oh WOW!! what a great looking car, the house is'nt bad either yes

The featured car is I am ALMOST certain a Wolseley from around the mid 1920's. Looks to be in very original condition just needing a bit of a buff up.

Great shots John.

Thats not a 'For Sale' note on the windscreen is it?scratchchin

You're right Dave - it's a 1925 Wolseley Tourer, reg OM 2385, totally unrestored (so it says on the windscreen, which is not a For Sale sticker I'm afraid!). They also have a 1909 Wolseley Siddeley, purchased new on June 9th 1909 - and the only known survivor of the type. I'll send you a piccy!

Ha,ha!! I like that wink
I think that is what an auctioneer would call "ripe for restoration"

If I got hold of it, it would be stripped down, a big V8 dropped in it and turned into a hotrod smilesmilewink
