I went to the restoration show at the weekend, despite the torrential rain in the morning it was a good day. I got a few cheap tools from the autojumble but failed to get some parts that i needed for the Toledo but i don't think i did to badly considering it was my first jumble ;D here is some of what i saw:  Capri, I've got a set of those wheels!  loverly honda s800  moggy  mint mk1 astra in the for sale section  cx  r8   tina  MAXi |

That's a 1500SE just like mine - think it belongs to a member called Dollyboy - is for sale at the moment. The Triumph Dolomite Club won joint first best display! Put on a cracker by the sounds of it!  That lime green Gilbern is an Invader - always liked those. 2000 looks cool. Thanks for the pics! ;D |

First time we haven't been for a few years. I read elsewhere that it wasn't as big as usual? If it was that wet I doubt there were many stalls outside? I like that Gilbern too I'm pretty sure the cresta? is an FB Victor but then last time we talked Victors I got it wrong so someone correct me if I've screwed up again  That Marina is just what we need for a winter car. SHabby (= cheap) and an early K plate one too! |

That turd-brown marina is very cool, K-reg must be one of the very first too. Small clutch and non-assisted front drums FTW!

Yeah the Dolomite stand was pretty good certainly the stand with most going on. The 1500se look pretty nice i was tempted, luckily the student loan hasn't gone through yet ;D
I also heard it was smaller than previous years, there were a few stalls outside they did seem quite drenched.

Yes, that is a very early one (you can tell by the shape of the 'vent' in the front valance) with clutch judder as an unoptional extra......
