Ford Model A



1930s car & caravan



1935 Ford V8 roadster



Ford Consul Mk2



Austin 7s

Here's a classic.  A 1934 Lagonda M45.



Arriving at my brother's house:



The cockpit.  Not too many dials but a real pig to change gear (and no, that's not me with the beer gut !!) :



Liz pretending it's ours :




he had kindly offered it as a wedding car for my nephew:

A Morgan 3 wheeler - taken at one of our local monthly gatherings of "interesting and classic cars" here in France :




Not a classic but nevertheless, an interesting mode of transport.  Photographed outside our hotel during my recent trip to Scotland:

Beautiful vehicles.

Where about in Scotland was the all terrain photographed ?

G`day Folks,

 Here`s my little MGB…..it`s not in the league of those classics shown earlier but I thought you might like to see it.

 These pics were taken by my son a few years ago when we exhibited at a local British car show.

 It`s a Mark II 1969 1800cc 4 speed manual with electric overdrive.











  Well there you go folks…….enjoy

:cheers  Gormo

Nice car Gormo.

I like all the chrome work. Well kept. Who is the dodgy looking geezer in the second photo, blue shirt with a camera bag on his back. I'd keep an eye on him.

Thanks for sharing

Toto

Nice car Brian,i had a white MGB GT 1967.Love the wire  wheels,that's what should be on it not those horrible Rostyles they  stuck on in the early seventies for the american market along with the  raised rubber bumpers.Very happy memories of mine,i met the wife in  it.Haven't got the car now but still got the wife.

The snowtrack was taken at Alyth, near Blairgowrie Toto. :thumbs

G`day Toto & Alan,

  Toto I don`t know who that bloke is but he was no problem. I`m the bloke in the third picture in the maroon shirt with my gut hanging over the side mirror.

  Alan I`m glad to hear you kept the wife…..I have too…..40 years next year!!! I bought the car as is during my mid life crisis. The previous owners were a lesbian couple who had just had a baby so the car had become useless for them. Don`t know how they arranged the baby and don`t want to know!!…..Anyway the MG is my little baby now. Unfortunately the weather has to be perfect to enjoy it so it spends a lot of time under wraps in the shed but when it comes out it`s a lot of fun on the road.

:cheers  Gormo

Sorry Brian that's not a REAL MG, :It's a no no   it's a BMC  product badged as an MG.

This is a real MG built before the merging of Austin, Morris, MG and a few others as the British Motor Corporation, later British Leyland and other manifestations finally sold to some German group.



and a later model

The last sea going paddle steamer, the PS Waverley, originally built in 1947.

 Well Mike it wouldn`t be the only car company to go down that route. You can`t get too fussy about the company history when you like the car regardless. I always had a soft spot for the B`s and they are also the most affordable MG. Once you start looking at TD`s or TC`s or anything in that vintage and older, the price increases dramatically. You may think that`s because they are genuine MG. True…but also there are fewer of them therefore the price goes up.

 So for one on a limited budget….the B will do me.

:cheers  Gormo

This one is for Gormo…, and those that have a thing for MGs' or MG power…

The JWF Milano, powered by MG, built in Oz ! Quite similar lines to a D Type Jaguar, as a lot of sports cars were in the 60s.





I have many pics of racing cars from various Historic race days. If you would like to see more, let me know ! ;-)

Cheers, Gary.

I have loads Mike. Give me a day or two to shrink some of them for the forum. Range from steam to buses, trucks etc.

The first of many.

Burrell GP Engine



Bristol Bus



Southern National



Royal Blue



Hudson Essex



Bournemouth Bus



Austin Heavy 12 Van



Rolls Royce Sedanca de Ville



More later.
