Some of you have probably seen most of these before, but they are still worth a look. some of our younger members may not have seen them, I add more over the next few days, if you have any please feel free to add them.

Not quite the same viewpoint but Chelsea Bridge Road has changed almost as much as the cars and clothing fashions

I remember that one, I was there in my first Anglia, possibly The first time I ever took it to Chelsea.

Awesome, really brings back the memories and the excitement - I wasn't old enough to drive

so used to get the Underground to Sloane Square and walk the rest. I remember most of those cars, and particularly the burnouts!! Good times

Brilliant pics - I remember most of those cars. I used to go in my Humber Hawk, or my cousin's PA Cresta. Happy times!

Is the white heat Capri taken at the Trinity road bust? I was caught up in that as well...

That's what I was thinking! I was also there that night (again not in a car!). A friend of mine had an Anglia estate and I remember him getting pulled over - basically anything that 'looked' modified. They had inspection lamps, a 52-seater coach that bussed in inspectors, police etc, talk about a massive waste of public money!!

It sure was mate, I think just about everything got pulled over that night, and I didn't even know you then.
