The Junkman Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Old British sports car day. TR-3, an Austin Healey Sprite, and most notable of all an MGA. What was notable about the MGA was it had British Columbia plates, a minimum of 1000 miles from home. Single driver with zinc oxide dabbed on his face. I have to image the space taken up by tools and spare parts had to at least equal that taken up with his clothing. Courage and confidence personified. Oh, and all the cars were various iterations of red. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best results are usually around the east side of Santa Rosa and around the wineries and vicinity of Healdsburg. (When a lion looks for a zebra to take down, she hangs around the water hole.)

Earl Marischal Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Seen at the local Leisure Centre last evening. Triumph Toledo 1970s (slightly) upmarket small saloon. Pretty rare these days thanks to the dreaded tin worm. steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodent Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 I have been in Sonoma County, CA all week, and we ventured down to Marin County today. Sightings have been much poorer than usual. Some Jeep dealer must be having a BOGO special on Grand Wagoneers, because they seem to be the "cool" $100k SUV now. Take that, Land Rover! Coolest thing I have seen was today in Point Reyes Station. A tan early '80s Toyota Starlet with a surfboard rack and board on the roof. No pics, the sketchy-looking owner was nearby. On the same street, was a nicely preserved Westfalia Vanagon Syncro. No pics either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unrestored to the point of being untouched. The dash pad and interior were severely worn and sun-baked but still quite the catch.

As a 19 year old import auto parts employee, I sold about $1000 (in 1979 dollars) in engine parts to someone who was trying to rebuild a gullwing engine after an ill-fated trip to Tahoe that resulted in overheating and a blown head gasket.
