Took some Autumnal shots of the old girl today, before it gets some much need TLC before spring....

On the way to the airfield I saw this lot lining up to play.....

I'm sure they trembled when they saw my flying machine turn up.
Not wishing to shame them (Or drop rust in front of them) I left to take some piccies (for my benefit and because I want some half decent ones just in case....)

Not too much to report other than the head unit is great, the thermostat still needs changing, and the tyres are consistantly neutral and handle wet and dry roads with equal aplomb. Long list of minor jobs for the next session of work, but the second cam looks fine, the springs look......springy and I'll be looking for the electric fan set up from a more modern twink or similar to wack onto it. Ebay here we come :)

Better weather in Essex than Norfolk then :( Looking clean Rob and also looking like it's running on space savers! Bloody hell those tyres 'look' narrow.

You worried about your plate on display or not>

Classic Ford asked for a piccie, hence the omission in the first one.
Yes they are skinny, but then my lawnmower has more grunt, it does nt need bad boys :)

I have only ever seen this pair for sale mate, so snapped them up a while back. (Same day as the dyno run at APT)

Love the pics Rob, the car looks so clean:coolgleamA:. So what's this about Classic Ford wanting a pic of your car.
