Re: Classic Cars

Am I right in thinking the silver/grey Jensen is an Interceptor, whereas the black one is an FF?

Re: Classic Cars

In the back of one of those picks I think there's a Triumph Acclaim!
One thing that irks me a little is that how many classics are restored as race or rally cars or customised somehow. There appears to be few of what I would call 'driveway' cars.

I know it's not a car... Scammell Routeman.


Ford Ranchero.

Yeah - FF has two vents in the front wing, Interceptor has one.
FF is physically longer too but you can't spot it as easily.

Re: Classic Cars

Have you seen the prices of 2dr Mk1 escorts nowadays?

I used to trade cars in the early 90s and remember giving a lad £50 trade in for his wreck of a (genuine) Mexico against a car he bought off me.
I then rang the scrappers and they dragged it away. If only you could go back and put some away for the future.
