Re: Festival of the Unexceptional
Not this year mate. We've agreed to do the mopar nats at the pod this year... thinking about dipping my toe into the American scene... fancy something like a 70/71/72 Dart Swinger or a second gen Barracuda? Not sure yet... Haven't got the wedge for a '70 superbee which is what I'd really like!
Only reason I asked was I didn't see the purple coupe on your list in your signature - thought you might've moved it on!

Re: Festival of the Unexceptional
Well it turns out the purple coupe was actually midnight blue but faded, its the car that i'm taking to the show at the end of the month, i'll take plenty of photos BTW.. i was into the American scene for over 30 years sold my last Yank about 4 years ago will buy another when something catches my eye, mostly chevys and pick ups but a few sports and saloons in the mix.. last truck was a chevy silverado SS supercharged and really quick, but expensive when i kept breaking it, took a bentley in part ex when i sold it and started on collecting Marinas if you need to import something drop me a line i've done it a few times and have some great contacts
