well, its simple. starting next monday, we each have 1 week (5 working days followed by a weekend likely as not to have no shows lol) to get out the camera and snap some retro. unless theres a pic it doesnt count. its kind of the end of year competition to see who can spot the best over a given week. ive been thinking about this for 3 weeks now. theres rules, and points rules: the spots cannot belong to you or your friends. believe me that screws my chances! 70's mini and stag owned by workmates! scrapyard vehicles don't count. aim for daily's. points, roughly until someone thinks of a better plan 1 pt: 80s/90s wagons/ prewar(ww2!) vintage (cuz its not really retro but its old) ('92 camry etc lol/ ford Y) 2 pts: 70s wagons (viva) 3 pts: 50s/60s rides/80s rides with retro mods (oxford/slammed astra etc) 4 pts: 70s motors with retro mods (dolly on ats's etc) 5 pts: 50s/60s vehicles with retro mods (sled mercury etc) 6 pts: pre-war with retro mods (ie T rod etc) bonus point on top of category point if it comes from USA or Italia for the craic lol who's playing?

Hey, Great So what would this get me ... Opel Admiral late 60's/Early 70's, does not belong to me or freinds, appeared to be in daily use, has some mods (note wheels) and picture was taken by me in Holland a few weeks ago.

I see this quite often my way home from work, Obviously as it's now dark and i'm driving in the opposite direction 'new' photo's are a challenge. Can i still claim my 6 points? ;D

no u cant claim points yet lol! both posted pix would be excellent scorers, but it has to be during the given week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jack i think we could make an allowance for that, provided you drive past it during the competitive week, and perhaps take a pic in the dark with a daylight one from 'stock' to back it up??

You think driving along a twisty B road at 60mph holding a camera, in rush hour. Waiting to take a photo of a car going the other way at 60mph is a safe thing to do? Think i'll pass.
