Didn't those ones still have leaf springs?

I think so...

Was mindlessly browsing the classifieds earlier and saw a fully forged Skyline for sale, under 7k with 3000 miles on the rebuilt engine (and amazingly, stock on the outside). I was so tempted :|

If I had room for it, I'd buy it

Not quite a daily encounter as it belongs to a friend and work colleague:

Jack's Hill?

Edit: duh, it's acutally visible in the sign.

I've been meaning to head up there when they got something on for ages now

You should.

 

[geekman]

Love seeing stuff like this still being used daily.

 

[Nasher]

It's amazing how they have spent all those decades out in the hot sun and the paint still looks ok. Cant say that for modern cars with their water based paintjobs :/

 

[Cookeh]

Paint looks okay? Completely faded single stage with horrific oxidation - are you looking at the same pictures as me?

I'm with Geekman though, love seeing older cars being used; especially old trucks, those things will run on till the end of time.

 

[Yaayuh!]

 

[Housey]

SD1 Vitesse?

Terrible lip

 

[IAmATeaf]

I love those old Rovers but my God the one above looks hideous.

 

[Nasher]

I remember when those cars seemed huge.

I think it looks great.

 

[Mobius 1]

Unfortunately no photo.. but I was following an Aston Martin DB6 earlier.

The fumes were making me lightheaded did all cars that age smell so bad ?

I still remember the smell of leaded fuel!

I remember four star (the red pump) is that the same stuff ?

Aye. That would give you a stinking headache

 

[Dav4]

I remember my uncle putting leaded fuel from a red pump in his Volvo when I was a kid. What happened to that? I vaguely remember unleaded being available at the same time. Could older cars use unleaded once leaded disappeared?
