Looks like a good meet - indoors as well!  Is it just me or is this very wrong? Low-pros so don't suit older cars. I like fat sidewalls!  WOW! Is that a Bond Equipe estate?! Never, ever seen one! |

We've just got in! Was a good day but the small person refused to sleep this morning and having been woken up early so she got grouchy early afternoon  I was about to say that to take a photo of this:  would have meant standing next to our car  But then I saw you found it anyway  I took a bunch of pics too so will stick a few up later.  |

I think if that 1300 was beaten into submission with 'the stick', those multispoke r1mZ would work quite well.
I keep having dirrrty thoughts about a 'Toledo Sprint'.... I'd want to bosh in a dolomite rear end too, just for added WTF.

Here's some of my photos. Possibly a couple of repeats of Matts.... I'm pretty sure this 2000 Mk1 we parked behind is the one run by one of the C&SC guys.  GT6 looked nice in sliver on "common" minilites  A blue Acclaim  I keep thinking of Lenham with this fibreglass attacked Spit but I know it wasn't them. Who was it that could make your Triumph look even more like a dick?  One for Rmad though not low enough of course!  This Mk1 saloon looked tasty on Revolutions.  Genuine (I think) Works Rally Vitesse  Factory prototype 4 door Herald recently sold through Ebay. The auction was pulled when it reached 6k so was presumably sold for a higher offer.  TR4 Dove was made/marketed by the same dealership that our Herald was bought from.  Injected TR8  And finally the bizarre tail end of the Bond estate.  |

That C32 Laurel is for sale, someone on the Datsun forum got the number for it if anyone is sufficiently interested.
Back on topic, that Bond estate is barmy! I assumed from the front that it was just the normal front grafted onto a boggo estate, maybe even a DIY job, but no!

Been done, with a 3.9 EFI (now 3.5) Rover V8! Light blue car, in convo with the person who currently owns it at the moment. We're trying to sort our axle ratios out ;D FYI:  Contains a V8 as well! And I wanted those wheels so badly! They looked great But god-dawn - so many cheap sets of Revolutions about! MW motorsports were selling new in box 5.5x13 4 spokes for 200 quid for 4, and there were a few 14" ones about as well! Got some good bits though, so will be doffing those on tomorrow....some useful things being carpets ;D Didn't make it in the '8 though, got half way through wiring up the Kenlowes then decided not to bodge it and use proper fused relays and sheathing (which I picked up today). So will get that done tomorrow.......did mean I didn't make it down the pod though Great show though, loved rifling about ;D Laid back too, even the stands... |

OK, no problem. I'm not exactly in a mad rush for it. Is this caoming off the complete 1300 lump you've got? |
