Various car show pictures...

I'm in the process of uploading most of the picture I took at car shows over the years onto Flickr, for anyone that's interested:

So far have about 500 or so pictures on it. Also have pictures that I took on my travels.

manta mad

good bit of looking on their :cool:

Good pics, too many to go through in one sitting though. Maybe you should group them in to sub files of 50? Spotted my T/A in there too!

The guy who owns this (he can be seen in the photo too, but I'm not pointing him out;)): http://www.flickr.com/photos/48434822@N05/5029958875/

....owned this as well:



He owns I'd say at least 20 other cars which are parked up and rotting into the ground. Some of them were concourse when he got them, such as a W126 560 SEC once owned by the Arab family and a 190E Cosworth owned by Buckingham Palace security, all left exposed to the elements and rotting away.

Seeing that Daimler makes me dread what else he sent to the scrapyard in his clearout, to be honest.

That Lincoln has been posted here before IIRC, parked in an underground carpark covered in dust? Theres many lads like that with lots of cars rotting away, a friend of mine has a Merc 280C and a BMW 635 just abandoned in his yard, not owned by himself but another guy. The cars werent too bad when they got there but are hanging now. The 635 had white leather,but a leaky sunroof has destroyed it.

That's the car.

You should actually see some of the stuff this guy has though. During the good times he was just buying up cars, parking them and have rarely started or been driven to this day.

Do you know where that Jag is? Scrapped late models such as that aren't all that easy to come across and I could do with a few bits and bobs to complete my 97 xj6 (x300) Anything I need would be ok from this particular model. Thanks.

I think it's in one of the scrapyards along the Red Cow. Someone has destroyed the car with a forklift since though, so I'd say there's a lot less usable parts on it now than there were.
