I need to pop round with a Camera again sometime as most of these pics are about 6 months or a year old. This is the mate who owns the garage that my other mate in the other thread bought the Herald off. He's not a "right rich b*****d" or anything, just a mature guy who's been collectiong and working hard for his money for a fair few years now. Nice selelction, although a lot of them are sold on now.
Scooby Doo camper van. Another scrap one. Failed its MOT and the bloke who'd brought it in swapped the van for the price of the MOT and just walked away from it. When it was finished someone made him an offer he couldn't refuse for it.
Early Rangerover. Bought off eBay which a knackered (diesel) engine. One set of shells and a few bits later it was a great runner. Got sold again though.
Him and his son are into their 4x4s and do a bit of off road racing. This is one of their conversions. I thik he replaced it with a Ford Explorer!
Bentley Turbo R. Such a sweet car. Gorgeous. "a keeper".
Long term Stag project. Litterally a nut & bolt rebuild. When he does stuff he does it 100% Total respect. Mind you its not got much further yet. He's been doing it for years.
Every retro garage should have a retro Sun or Krypton Tuner, right? (Ok this ones a Bosch) I want one...
This is what £1000 worth of Jensen Interceptor looks like! Rough! But its coming on slowly. Very slowly. If I had money and space and time I'd con him into selling this one to me.
Old bikes, now sold. He's got one of those Harley Road King things and this 'busa to play with though.
Trying to find pics of his Triumph 2500 PI estate and the XJ6 Coupe (an amazine true concours example). Will post them if I find them.
He also had a Mk3 Supra Turbo he swapped for a Gen 3 Camaro and a Dodge Ram pickup which was pretty cool. No pics though.
