Charlie is our 65 saloon, purchased from a fella in York and kind of a rolling project for me. That said, she's in pretty good shape!
After our first big trip ended in radiator troubles, our next big outing is to the National from Liverpool, followed by a scenic tour to the Edinburgh Fringe via the Lake District!

Nice car.
I particularly like that last shot, it could be mistaken for a period shot with that backdrop.
Best wishes,
Mike.
PS: How about this?[frame][/frame] Sepia makes it look like it was a nice sunny day, many years ago....

1954 Series 2: 4 door: "Sally" -- Back on the ground with (slave) wheels, now being sprayed by me, slowly......
1970 Triumph Herald 1200: "Hetty" -- Driven back from Llangollen in Wales (twice.....)
1952 Morris Minor MM highlight with sidevalve engine still fitted, wants work, so joins the queue for now......
Like you say, the car is in pretty good shape and I agree with Mike about the period shot and like the "retouched" pictures he's created. How about some period number plates, the reflective ones don't quite look right, do they?

You're right, it's black on the back! Just not a spending priority atm
