Hi, here goes my first post in this thread, hopfully many more to follow as I know of a few retro cars locally. Ok I took these a few years ago now but only just found the memory card they were on, First pic was taken at Oakley scrap yeard in Buckinghamshire, he always has a few old retro cars stuck up the back. Not sure what it is mind.  I took this picture at Hughes scrap yard, it was well out the way from the normal scrap fodder, I think it was actually removed to be restored as it disapeared one day .  Isn't that top one a kit car from back in the day based on a vw bug called a nova? sure it had a pop up cab.......if it isn't it looks like one! Lol |

The 'white' kit is an Avante. There are some nice ones on google images. don't know much about them or whats underneath but it won't last long parked in the long grass.

The Pinzgauer is a very similar looking beastie but much bigger- but you are right, they are both of Steyr Puch origin (I think the rights to the Pinz have moved about a bit, seem to recall BAE built them for a while). Well, except the tractor. I think that's a Zetor, but don't quote me on that A quick google and I'm pretty certain it is a Zetor, probably of a similar age to the Haflingers. |

I don't know anything about the VW, thinking about asking if he wants to get rid of it, not really sure on what its worth though?
