Didn't get time to take many myself, so here's just a couple to start off the thread. [frame][/frame]

First post and photo of the thread and my very own pulling machine gets in it!!!

Stunning car, rebuilt to perfection and admirable standards, I'm not convinced even when new they came out the factory this good. Inside wheel arches and chassis underside put my exterior paintwork to shame.

it certainly wouldn't win any concours prizes!

Any idea what wheels these are? They remind me of the ones on Garry Ellis' famous custom convertible.

Thanks to Louise M for the Tea, Coffee and cakes on the Messageboard stand on Branch Avenue. Oh - and the Pimms.... .

Very nice photos Jon, our branch stand looks good there we managed to fit 11 on at one point And the skip scavenge was started by the ni branch not us But being students... All but one red seat seems to have been saved and given to people who will find them useful

I fear the measures may have been a little on the strong side though. I'm still not entirely sure whether the AGM was just a lot shorter than normal or whether I passed out for an hour

I think Dan was at the front of the queue, looking for items to fit to his newly purchased boot rack

Why is it that only the shiney restored minors get the photo treatment i like to see lived in and used cars with history

That's shocking, on the one hand someone can do what they want with their own stuff but they could have left it in a big FREE pile, not in a skip. Was it just rear seats or was there other bits of use?

seats, seat covers, bumpers, door cards and a carb

Can't remember anything else being fished out.

4dr rear door -really good quality.

Ianin tebury- was this your landrover?:[frame][/frame]

Yes it was indeed. Makes a great camera platform amongst other things. Goes on the road too!
The poor old things not looking at its best these days, I think it was towards the back end of last year when it was last washed. Must try harder!
It was also my 1935 Raleigh bicycle too, one of the few items on site old enough for the '40's theme!

I think the only thing left in the skip was a red back seat. everyone ends up with a good spare back seat when a Minor gets scrapped as they've never had the use, and not many folk want them... I got some blue door cards for my wife's 2 door to replace the ones with overspray on them (it wasn't me btw!) and a limeflower doorcard for passing onto another branch member with a teal blue trav. I don't think much got wasted.

Nice to see all these pictures. Being stuck with the stall, I didn't get to see much of the show.
