What is that wreck? steve

That LeBaron looks tiny next to those trucks! steve

Plus leather seats, wood dashboard and a bigger 998cc engine. steve

Chatted to the owner of this Riley Elf. He re-restored it recently and is now enjoying it. He also owns a Wolsely Hornet and a Mini Traveller. steve

Did the owner of the Imperial wear a fedora and carry a violin case maybe? steve ?

Thanks @1972coronetJohn. Olly has had a some problems with her skin this year which aren't fully cleared yet. Thankfully she is much improved now, especially since she's been allowed back outdoors. We live in the country and she likes to explore the fields and the local wildlife! steve

Olly assisting with the gardening this morning. steve

Nice one. Haven’t seen one of them for years, due to the dreaded tin worm. steve

Sorry for your loss Dave. Been there and know how it feels. steve

Is that HO 1/86 scale? steve

It looks like what a toy generic American car from the late 1950s would be. steve

That is really great work. I find these cars fascinating as there aren't really anything similar over here. One question, just wondering, does anyone ever build 1:1 road legal versions of Modifieds? Thanks steve

When I built that kit in, I think it was, 1966, it was marked as Airfix on box. steve

What a beauty! steve

Nice. What make? steve

The Cyclone is better looking. steve

Examples of these fly over my house quite frequently. Odd looking things. steve

Very nice Mk 1 Cortina! steve

@The Junkman Steve, UK registration numbers are allocated nationally by the Driver & Vehicle Licencesing Agency to the vehicle, not the owner. (Personalised plates are allowed but have to be part of the number plate register.) No numbers are duplicated. Each year new vehicles are given as part of the number, a year designation; there are 2 per year, every 6 months. For instance, the reg no of my Peugeot is WF55 XYP. The 55 means it was first registered in the second half of 2005. However, kit cars, rods and other 'specials' can apply for an old, out of use, number either from the vehicle on which the 'special' is based or another 'dead' vehicle. All that said, the car pictured not only has plates of dubious legality due to size and font (these are specified in the regs), it doesn't have mudguards/fenders. Also technically illegal. steve

A rare beast over here, especially on the High Street of a small market town. steve

Link not available in the U.K. ? steve

A great score there Ace. Best looking steam loco of all time in my book, especially with those drivers. I had looked at the later MTH version but the price was out of my reach and anyway, my layout is too small for one. Good luck with your layout project. steve

That Valiant. Hmmm...one flat, plus missing a hub cap and a petrol cap. Needs some TLC? steve
