"Santa cruz electric shotgun holder and cartridges" now i'm starting to get worried. "Interceptor nudge bars" :roll: :roll:

You could start WW3 with that lot. Bet they haven't got a whistle :lol:

Super pictures thanks.

I wonder if the "Seven" is a Robin Hood 7 kit car rather than Caterham? The original Robin Hoods were based on Dolomite running gear and had polished metal panels like that.

The Chevy pickup is an SSR: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_SSR - I've see a yellow one and an orange one here

You're probably right Richard, I forgot to take note, hence the question mark.

Not too many, I noticed a couple of Corvettes, and an old "Olds".
There was plenty of the usual Brit / Euro stuff to see, Rollers, E type, Stags, Mini's, V Dubs etc as well as some modern BM's, Aston Martin, Mitsubishi
The selection does vary each month.
Just me looking for something a little different to post up.

There's always plenty of Bikers attending too.

I spoke to the owner, he'd owned it for 10yrs, it has had a re-spray and looked good close up. It smelt nice inside too.

Looks to have been a good show.
The Fairline was ahead of its time with it metal folding roof. Great to see it all in action when the roof goes up or down.
