Not quite the same viewpoint but Chelsea Bridge Road has changed almost as much as the cars and clothing fashions

Re: Chelsea Cruise pics around 1979
Awesome, really brings back the memories and the excitement - I wasn't old enough to drive 
so used to get the Underground to Sloane Square and walk the rest. I remember most of those cars, and particularly the burnouts!! Good times

Re: Chelsea Cruise pics around 1979
Is the white heat Capri taken at the Trinity road bust? I was caught up in that as well...

Re: Chelsea Cruise pics around 1979
That's what I was thinking! I was also there that night (again not in a car!). A friend of mine had an Anglia estate and I remember him getting pulled over - basically anything that 'looked' modified. They had inspection lamps, a 52-seater coach that bussed in inspectors, police etc, talk about a massive waste of public money!!

Re: Chelsea Cruise pics around 1979
I was expecting to see me somewhere in the crowd there or maybe my jacked up Mk2 Cortina in the background ! Happy days and great to see those pics.

It sure was mate, I think just about everything got pulled over that night, and I didn't even know you then.
