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.

I watched your Volvo at the Gathering a few weeks ago and it was incredible! 8-)

I could hear it coming a long time before I saw it. That is after I realised it was a car and not a Messerschmitt 109 on full chat!!

Not practical, but a classic definitley, as I am not a member of the "Classic Car" forum it has to be posted here, sorry for all of you who think this is car porn but, I have to agree! Photo Courtesy of Mike Alsford.

I'm only 16, but here's my dads aston martin DB7 that he's building up to concours (whilst still doing over 15k miles a year!)
This is at the autumn concours, which we scored 82.5 out of 100 :)
It's come a long way from worn suspension, rusted struts and aircon catching fire in central france 6 years ago... :P
Plus the wheel covers are very controversial, but he's very attached aha!

Mmm, nice Princess. I'm surprised to see that it's Pageant with an O-series on that early a T-plate. Mine (RIP. AVG 99T :cry: ) was only registered a few days earlier (the 5th rather than the 9th) but was finished in the earlier, slightly darker Tahiti and had a 1798cc B-series. If only the old boy mine came from had waited a few more days, I'd have saved a fortune on Valvemaster by not needing any.
:D

Here is my pride and joy, currently laid up and looking very naked awaiting a rebuilt V8
