Miscellaneous '89 pics
Some from the Pod, some Chelsea Cruise, and the last one from the Enfield Pageant of Motoring. All 1989. I think

It would be brilliant if you had a shot of it Rob, you couldn't miss it, it was black with a sky blue roof, a beam front axle, five foot ladder bars, it was 20" over stock height all around and a pro stock scoop and with the small block and two inch pipes through Thrush reversed mufflers, it made a great noise.
Subtle eh?
I made one Chelsea with it I think and ran it around Greenford and Wembley for a while, before the steering proved too dangerous and it became another of those unfinished projects.
it must have been in the early eighties when the car was bought by the West brothers of Slick Willy Willys Coupe fame, they put the engine in their pick up truck and I understand it ran a 15!

Just checked on multimap! It's Parkgate Road, off Albert Bridge Road (the next bridge west from Chelsea Bridge)

used to be able to park pretty well anywhere without fear of getting clamped or a ticket. Shame the chavs of the day in their hot hatches put an end to it.
Lets hope history doesnt repeat itself

Thats a nice pic of your Satellite there Adam. Digital? Must be a few years old?
I notice Olly's roadrunner had the trunk finish panel in Neil's early 80's pics, but didnt have it by the time I knew it mid-80's.
You must have had a window in the wall of the garage level with the cars window, and got in/out Dukes style

Rob, I took that pic the day I sold it in 1999, on my first digitronic cam, an Olympus D340. It remains the only car that has brought a lump to my throat as the new owner drove it away.
Went to a good home though, Mark Lloyd (now drives the "Lloyd's Dodge" 65 Coronet) and his family loved it too. Mark sold it to a woman who still has it, last I heard, and it has apparently cast its
on her too.
Just to prove the Tardis-like qualities of my garage, here's another pic taken the same day, with my Coronet in the garage. I don't have to climb out of the window, but I'll admit it's becoming more of a tight squeeze to extricate myself via the door. Must cut down on the pies
