Nice Time-Machine :)

 

Imagine doing that in this country with our weather!

 

"Yeah, Hi, I'm looking for a blue 1965 Ford Rustbucket Estate, last seen being taken to the St. Albans scrapyard in 1981."

 

I wonder if I could find my Dad's old Hillman Hunters? He used to get through them like socks!

 

I remember the days, sitting in the back with my brother, holding on for dear life as my Dad drove drunk around Devon on holiday. Such a loving, caring father....

 

I can hear him now, yelling at my Mum to "Throw that bl**dy map out the window woman!" as we got loster and loster on the way to Gloucester. Fond memories :D

There is a video similar to this I saw a few years back but I haven't been able to find it since. I think it was from a lotus owners club (Lorus Esprit?). Anyway I think the guy had his car in bits and he was in hospital and the car club co-ordinated it whilst he was inside to get everything sorted, painted, the lot. He came out of hospital and went to a track day as a spectator and his finished car pulled up in front of him, pretty amazing stuff. If anyone knows the vid I mean please link it.
