Just a few pics from the show - it wasn't cold but it was a little breasy and just a few spots of rain - enjoy.

Nice TC, would look better if it had a pair of underiders on it though, even if it didn't have any from new.. Grille's not original.. :?
If a link was changed to "ebay linky" then that was probably Sam, because she's sad..

Love that grill, and am seriously thinking of doing that with my TC's grill,
Lovely car you have there, you obviously cherish it.

Not my TC it belongs to Chris Kirman - he's had it about 10 years and is 2nd owner, early suicide suspension, no wing mirrors, no headrests. He let me drive it part way to the show, pulls beautifully, just need to be careful going into the bends. The old slow in fast out seems to be the quickest way round. What they must have been like on cross-plies I don't dare think about.

My Harvest Gold Coupe was in the oven over the weekend, baking the fresh paint on.

The Mk3 is with a new member it came off Ebay 'Ooop North' anyone know it?

Gary

What's wrong with the TCs grille? It'll give me something to wind Chris up with, next time that I see him.

Its a mk2 on one, its got no access slot in the top centre and the silver "band" around the insert is too wide (again mk2 on)

Compare it to your's Chris, yours looks correct.. apart from the centre..
