I think personally, that Woody needs a thread of it's own.

Yes , that car spent about 4 months in my garage this year being repaired and put right ! ,the owner ( Tony ) is frightened of it tho.  Thanks for the comments of my cars peeps, I should admit the Minx is the wifes tho ,and she did put in a lot of help restoring and modifiying it too.It runs a 2.0L Vauxhall engine and auto box linked up to the coloum shift. |

Ah cool, he bought some recaro seats from me a couple of months back, and we got talking about cars ( as ya do..!) and he mentioned a friend with a sceptre with a redtop in it, lets face it there cant be many about.. looks stunning, i had a 1961 singer vogue a few years back, regreted selling it and keep my eye out for a good one ever since..

I love all of those cars. Am I right in thinking the Sceptre was featured in SM years ago (in green?) or am I thinking of a different car. I also have a vague memory of it being at the Knebworth Nats in primer before that?
Awesome cars, welcome aboard.

Wow! Those are a whole bunch of awesome cars. And a seriously terrifying scooter! I'm loving all of them, especially the Sceptre.

That is some superb work been done there mate. 2 doorin' the Sceptre must of been a feet on its own, that's a superb job let alone the mechanical upgrades! Looks wise, the Minx is probably my fave though. It looks like a standard, well restored car bar the lowering but with modern turn key performance, excellent!  That goped looks bloody terrifying, you wouldn't catch me ridin' that!  Brilliant though! ;D Finally as nickbrad said, the Woody needs a thread of its own. 'Tis nice |

Bump - found it Ollie  Saw these motors at the weekend, and the pics just don't do them justice... the Sceptre is flipping lovely, as is the woody. The Standard however is much rougher than in the pics ha ha! ;D |
