Really cool rat VW breadvan at Shedfest. Love the aircraft seats and loads of details that you will see the more you look. The majority of them are humorous which is great to see as the car scene can take itself a bit too seriously at times.

An absolute beast. Renault Clio at Shedfest. The reason for me liking this is because I had a red 1.9 diesel as my first car. Mine was the "Versailles" edition which still to this day I don't know what that means other than it came with a leaky sunroof. But this one plastered in decals, red steel wheels and isn't in the scrapyard in the sky so beats mine.

Riley Elf MK3. This is a mini but Alec Issigonis, the creator of the original Mini designed one to be a more luxurious variant of the classic.

Jaguar XK120. I keep seeing this cool machine about but it's not been stationary for long enough. Cool blacked out chrome. This thing looks like if Cruella Devilles brother had a car.

MK2 es**rt van is slowly coming to bits.... still. 98% of the interior is out. Heater matrix and piping, windscreen wiper motor and mechanism, door cards, wing mirrors, dashboard cover (weirdly the dashboard body is welded on) carpets etc. Pretty much all the wiring loom poorly labeled up and out. Also pretty sure I've found a 4th colour that it's been painted 😂. Plus found some very retro crisp packets in there from the 80's. if you get 10 minutes that would be great.

Honda Civic first generation. This car is probably very undervalued on how much this car has probably influenced a car you have driven or currently own. The Civic's success helped to popularize the subcompact car segment and inspired other automakers to develop similar models. It also helped to change the way people thought about cars, making them more affordable, efficient, and stylish. Minus what may be considered the boring facts, today it is also extremely cool. This is the first time I have seen one in person.

Few snaps from tractor fest at one of our local boozers. Still can't wrap my head around David Brown going from tractors to some of the most iconic Aston martins ever made. David Brown is the reason they are called DB5, DB6 etc. Also here are some Massey Ferguson twins and a Fordson Major. Can't beat a good tractor or several.

Slowly but surely getting there even with just a few hours per week. Once the hydraulic fluid is drained the master cylinder can come out. All the wiring has been disconnected from the engine bay and then the interior which I think can be smashed out in a day. Then the heavy stuff such as engine, gearbox and suspension. Does anyone know where to get some rear doors?

Mini Clubman. Stunning colour and absolutely clean as anything. I still think that the British Leyland restyling was an odd choice but it's still a cool design but I'm not old enough to see how I felt about it back in the day. The iconic mini front had gone which came with things like not being as aerodynamic. Was this a marmite design? I don't know?

Honda crossroad. Now this is an odd one. On the market from 93' to 98'. Apparently the only vehicle honda sold with a V8. As you clearly can see it's a rebadged Discovery. Bizaar knowing Honda is renowned for its reliability. All the other Japanese car makers got into the sports utility boom but honda didn't. This was their attempt at catching up. We all make mistakes. Not really much more to it than that!
