Mopar Muscle Association UK

Scanned some pics from this little get together at Syon Park in Isleworth, West London, back in April 1989

Bridget with the dark blue Pontiac Silver Streak (MYRLS license plate) used to live a few doors down the road from us in Mill Hill, so we cruised round the North Circ together and met others in the pub car park before going into the nearby Syon Park, which I seem to remember had a car museum & butterfly collection

Her other claim to fame is she used to be one of Adam Ant's main squeezes, before he went all looney-tunes

Not many muscle cars, unfortunately, but not surprising at it was a Pre50-organised meet.
Should keep the fins'n'chrome fans on here interested for a few mins tho.......


Oh and some might recognise a young looking Stewart & Milton Homan, peddling their wares. Maybe not tho, as some of the pics are pretty dark

Great photos, we used to go to that show too. Wasnt it a motorcycle museum?

I owned the pink metallic 59 Oldsmobile convertible from 2003 to 2006, it was at the NEC in 04 on the Classic American stand with your car!

Is that the Garrow bro's standing next to the gold 57 Oldsmobile?

Great pics Rob,

Love looking at all the pics of the eighties and early nineties...... Takes me back.

Great to see all those rounded shapes and then the one solitary green B body in amoungst for good measure

Great stuff

Nice pics Rob. I wonder how many of those cars are still around (apart from yours obviously). I think the Homans have still got that 53 Eldo haven't they?

I remember the 54 Ford in the background of the 59 Dodge pic terrorising Wandsworth on Chelsea Cruise night. I believe it had a hot 427 (Ford).

Thanks for sharing

Thanks Andy, I wasnt sure if that show was a one-off, I think we only went there that one time.

Not familiar with the name Garrow, but there's a few faces there I still see around these days.

Also remember drooling over your Olds at Billing in Aug 04

Some pics from there & the NEC later that year, in case you need reminding

...and one from the other end of the stand.... you can just about see your Olds, to keep it on topic

Great pics, regret selling that car!

Robbie and Gavin Garrow, with the pink 59 New Yorker convertible?

I thought Andy would recognize some of those caddy's...

Is that the convertible in my pics Andy, that they're puttting the roof up on?

yep, that's the one! the 60 Lincoln next to it is in the Canary Islands now i believe

as far as i'm aware they've never offered that car for sale

The two tone green 56 Chevy Bel Air is currently for sale at Dream Cars though they didnt own it when your pics where taken

The gold 57 Oldsmobile 98 Coupe is at Wheels Day every year

Mate of mine owned that '54 Ford in the '80's, I was considering buying it, ex John Bonham car, 427 side oiler, 4 speed, 4.10's. A genuine late '60's street racer, it had all the correct period parts but was really tired after years of abuse. Often wondered what happened to it, I haven't seen it since the last time I drove it....
