Jeez,what a long day.Out at 9.15 back at 8.45.. :shock:
Fuel receipts for £90 (all Shell V power @ £1.10 per litre)
3 cars there and the snapper took 350+ pix,
Not too sure how many will get into print though.
There was a non-running 56 Chev there that didnt get used much as it was too heavy to push about,
so mine and a custom car front cover feature car(39 Ford) got lots of attention.Lots of static shots and a few tracking ones of me overtaking the ford(taken by the guy hanging out the back of a Mondeo estate) 8-)
Long, cold day but interesting and a good laugh at times.Had a nice meal on the way home(on X`s)did 250 miles and must have started the car 25 times during the day and plenty of static shots with 4 headlights on and a big jam on the way home and the car was faultless. :thumbright:
The feature will be in the Feb issue of Practical classics and also................................Wait for it......................




































MAXY PANTS :D :D :D :roll: No kidding..
