Robtwin's Friday NEC pics

Post by RobTwin »

It's always a tall order, trying to get round all of the show in one day, and Friday morning's wet weather meant we didnt get there till 10.30ish, plus we needed to look round the autojumble for some weatherstrip & gasket material for the Polara's rear lights. But after that, we got round most of the stands we wanted to see, eventually stopping off at the MMA stand, manned by Mr & Mrs Sinny, plus Simon & Dave. Also met Stu & Gareth there, and Jon Connolly, which was nice :)


Here's a couple of pics what I took.... :coffee:


Edit - if these pics come out a bit small on what you're using, and want a bigger view, click on the pic and then on the magnifying glass at the top right of the pic, in the photobucket preview :read2:

I have no idea how you can take and post such crisp and excellent colour shots on the site; they are excellent!

You must show me some time :read2:

Rats, I'd have liked to have seen that! :lol:

Twin cam Fiat was a popular choice back in the 80s when a couple of our mates had moggies - think I'd prefer the Lotus myself!
