Post pictures of your pride and joy

Post pictures and stories about your cars both present and past. Also post up "blogs" on your restoration projects - the more pictures the better! Note: blog-type threads often get few replies, but are often read by many members, and provide interest and motivation to other enthusiasts so don't be disappointed if you don't get many replies.

:D Hello Phade, I get the feeling that we've "met" elsewhere in cyberspace. Good to see your cars on a publicly accessible forum. ;)

Indeed we have :) I thought I would share my rides on here as well and I have only just found the Practical Classics Forum too. I have also spotted several other people from VZi as well. :)

This picture, Rich?

I was tempted to Gimp an image of Anna Friel's face into the car, which would surely add to its value, but now I can't be bothered.

It was easy Rich, I just took a pinch of my magic pixie dust from the leather pouch of the stuff that always lives in my pocket, sprinkled it on my keyboard and recited an ancient spell that's been handed down through generations from the time of King Arthur.

Or maybe I clicked on your link, saved the image location that came up when I did that, clicked [ i m g ] from the top of this "post a reply" window, then pasted your link between those IMG boxes. Can't remember now which way I did it.

I've just tried speaking to Ms Friel but her phone-answering slave told me to **** *** and shove my **** ** my **** or he'd come round to the office and stab me in the head. So maybe that's a no then? :?

Mine usually comes from a shady-looking gent who hangs around outside the toilets in the village pub on Friday nights.
