Jimmy Hibbert's Willy's has been around a while.

JapChris's totally out of this world (geddit?) Dan Dare Coupe. Excellent detailing and a cohesive theme throughout this gem. Note the flying saucer rad cap emblem.

 

5th pic:
Nice lineup of roadsters. well, except for the coupe... And the late model... and that one's a pickup...

 

6th and last:
Nicely distressed old style lettering on this stock car style Poncho.

Any one of those cars looked 60's....!

Thank you.

 

Very cool. Thanks for showing those.

 

Thanks for the pics, Mart. Do you have any more shots of the 29 RPU?

A metalic green Falcon with a matching steering wheel? I think you just made my day. Thanks for the pics.

 

Neal, there are a couple on this page from my site:
Page from Mart's site.
It's Matt Farrant's rpu, a real nice car. It's still running only 2nd and top on the early Ford trans after lunching 1st at the Nostalgia Nationals. Runs a crate Chev motor on an adaptor.

That 57 Fairlane KickS ***!


Growing up in the sixties, that's all I remember seeing.....my uncles had 57-60 Fords with straight axles and such.......

What is that a four door?

 

2 dr post, Rad.

 

Were any of the Watford Rods there? If so, you have any photos of their rides?

Great shots, thanks for sharing

 

Oh, the roll bar threw me off in the first pic...........*****ING 57!

 

Great pics, man what a Fairlane!! Where'd this take place, Mart?

 

Gotta dig the g***ers, -especially the Falcon. Cool pics, Mart.

 

It was at Shakespear County Raceway, Stratford On Avon. Apart from the hangover sunday it was a great weekend....nice pics Mart, will get some developed tomorrow & post 'em.
Denise i did see the Watford Rods bunch there! sorry no pics though.

 

Thanks for sharing, Mart -- your usual good and interesting stuff.

Love the name of the venue. Yanks of my generation were brought up with a pounded-in reverance for the Bard comparable to that of the Holy Trinity. You lot are obviously more comfortable with old Bill.
