Some brilliant finds like - such a good feelin when you find summat like that

Imagine how many other cars are locked away yet??? Even lock ups and garages everywhere there are bound to be a few surprises - wish I had the authority to go around checkin them

Thing that scares me is like that RS500 - if someone knows nothing apart from the fact its an old D reg Sierra - they'll not think twice about scrapping or crushing it

 

Near work is:

Mk1 Escort
Sierra Sapphire
Morris Minor
Rover SD1 (x2)
Old Jag's
Few others too

 

fucks sake, would love to have seen that

 

nothing there mate

link not working

 

onslows cortina is sat at my work

 

the mk2 crayford went to the guys daughter (who said just chuck it over there out the way) nearly chocked

 

Whats the story behind it?

 

the guy that owns them had a workshop that got sold off and he had to shift them,
ive poke to him about selling it, and he said to make him an offer
but i wouldnt have a clue on how much and ive nowhere to store it

 

if you dont have it pm me

 

had to pick this up from a lady whos husband had from new,passed away in 2002 and she was paying for the lock up
not knowing where it was or what was in it 28.000 on the clock and every invoice (even bulbs) xr4i

 

im not intrested mate

 

omfg

 

Oh fuck

 

sorry but the cortina aint worth fuck all. Just because it was in a mildly funny show in mid nineties dont make it gold

 

got to agree there

 

found this in the back of my lorry once, but it was for a customer,
does that count?

 

very true but some peaple have diffrent minds to things like this it means nothing to me but someone out there may pay good money for it

 

not worth fuck all mate, its a replica of one they made forty years ago





seriously note, they are such a nice car, love em

 

true, I love Hyacinth as much as the next bloke and would love something to remind me of her

One of the daftest things I've read on here, why don't you just ask your MATE

 

Here you go mate, Right Click and Save As

 

has ginge! been telling porkies AGAIN?

 

this was my barn find, bought for 300 quid, 19 months ago,

been stood 5 years, got it running, then broke it, and made 1100 quid back on it

 

A Lad on another forum I've just used posted pictures of this..

Said it's been stood outside his house for 4 years, obviously a rep but still!

 

If its a genuine 1600E I'd have the engine,box (if a series I) and diff off ya !

 

theres a black 3 door near us, its sat on a drive down a cul-de-sac, its been there for at least 8 years that i know of, blanket over the front seats & dash, tyres half flat & perished, moss/mould growing out the window seals etc...
i've spoke to a few people who have tried to buy it but the old couple who own it won't let it go!

 

That looks fookin lovely.

Whats the story with it then?

 

God knows mate, apparently the bloke has gone to America?

Don't know anything about it what so ever. Looks pretty decent too!

 

WTF!!!!!!

 

What's up?

 

RSVAN- Its a replica.

If the guy has moved to the states, give me the reg number pls

 

It's still there m8, go and help yourself,
It's @ Dropmore Park in Burnham, Bucks

 

found this when i went out on break down a few months back






the old boy still uses it

 

I don't have the reg number, but I think someone else is onto it.
