Nice pics! Cheers for sharing them. ==== I felt a bit sorry for this fella. Maybe entirely misplaced to do so as he might not mind, but I noticed he had a few doodles and messages fingered into his lovely vintage dirt over the weekend. I can understand the temptation to write a message in a dirty car but the dirt on this thing was really part of the car and its personality, and now he's had that element of the car vandalised and it will remain visible probably forever (it would be quite hard to restore decades old grime I think), as well as the grime probably scratching the original paint underneath.  |

I don't doubt at all that the owner wrote the messages himself or at least people he was with did. |

Don't think so. Otherwise he probably wouldn't have rubbed it off by the Sunday. Still, he did seem very chilled about the car and let us try it our for size (extra small) which involves standing on the seat to step over the door so I don't think he was too precious about stuff
Great set of photos. I like the gentle sunbleached filter on them, very groovy
