Really? Discussing how we should be spelling topic names?
The car is awesome and that's all that should matter. As someone said when the RR collective saw it in the flesh at Queen's square - "Don't ever change a thing". The chap gave us a smile - people had been asking him all day when we was going to restore it.

Nice to see one that looks properly used and not mollycoddled and only taken out on perfectly dry days with no chance of rain! And it looks bloody cool too!

Can I just make one observation here, if it was you that took this photo, it is BRILLIANT. This is not about the cars per se, the best thing about this photograph is watching the next generation of car fan. That right there is a memory photo of the future for the guy's son. "I remember going to shows with Dad when I was a kid, we'd just sit on the bonnet, and watch whilst people loved the car." Awesome. This goes down as one of the best photos I've seen for a while. Cap is being doffed to the person that took it. [/quote] Thanks. Yeah, I took it, for pretty much the reasons you've said. I've taken my son to a few shows and while he loves it to a point, it's not long before he wants to be doing something else or going on a fairground ride or something (not at the Gathering, obviously). Sometimes I wish he'd slow down and live in the moment a bit more, but he is only young still. I was as impressed by this lad's evident enjoyment of the event and interest in what was going on around him as I was by the super-cool nonchalance of the dude whose car it clearly is!
