Thanks Mark :) was that pic of our car taken outside your house in Waltham Abbey? I think we fitted the centerlines in 87 so that will have been around then, or shortly after.

I have a similar set of Brighton photos, will check the date later :thumbright:

I think it was taken outside of where Blue used to live in Waltham Cross

I think you may be right about it being 87, the centerlines on the front of mine were Blues which he lent me about that time. I'd forgotten the Brighton was still going then.

Oh ok, I did think that initially. I do get Abbey and Cross mixed up :lol:

We went to Waltham Abbey back in June (not far from Blue's old place) to the Royal Gunpowder Mills, for the Herts Auto Show... now in Essex #-o :lol:

Twins - I love the colour ! But I am a sucker for green

Hmm, I was never that keen on the green. Hence it got resprayed by ‘89. A Kawasaki colour I believe. Maybe suppose to be similar to Sassy grass green?
So the white 4 door Valiant was Dennis the Menace. Owned by a Paul ? Had a Koffel engine (or just a cam?) I remember he had an issue with it.
And Dinger’s car - the right way up 😀

Here it is at a later date in super gas, was this when it had the Koffel engine?

Multiple barrel rolls and he wasn't wearing a crash helmet!
Keeping your foot in it with a broken halfshaft was never going to end well.

For a 4 door.
