Happy new year to You, too.
Seems a lot of stories are waiting to be told in PistonPopper's Journal?
How many of the cars in the pics were actually Yours?
If I had to guess: the Starsky&Hutch KA, the Carlton saloon and the Skoda pickup are among those.

Just scanning through the pictures I guess about 14 or 15 are/were mine. Sadly not the HiAce camper van pedalcarjoe I'm afraid. That fox mustang with the Capri rear hatch looks great, did they come that way over there? No, thats not how we got them here chandlergti, infact we didn't really get them here at all. It was a bit of a struggle getting that rear hatch to fit properly, as the rear of the Mercury Capri is far more rounded, whereas the Mustang was fairly straight and had corners on either side of the hatch. Added to that the Mercury Capri has some awful looking third brake light bodged onto the rear of the hatch. Getting it all to look like it was meant to be there took two or three days of faffing with the bodywork of the hatch. Looks OK though doesn't it? |

Ok is an understatement. Always loved that hatch.

One of the cars pictured looks very much like one once owned by the Queen. I’ll dig a mag out and double check but feel free to have a guess while I do so.
