Rikard Posted May 7, 2006 Report Share Posted May 7, 2006 I think its sad seeing old lonely cars sitting in a filed somewhere, rusting up and disintegrating with no one to love them...... Im sure Erik will agree lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im sure Erik will agree lol Yes, I agree with that. They should still be on the road, and they would be if their owners had bothered to look after them properly.

Andymek Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Two RS2000 shells there. What a waste! At least half a dozen in there Chris Pic was taken a while back, and since then there's been some fantastic bits of kit come 'n gone RS Turbos, Series 1 & 2, Sierra, Sapphire & Escort Cossies as well as Anglias,Cortinas etc ...A classic ford collectors heaven!!!

erik Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 I don't particularly like it, assuming that is a MK2 Jag. The grille seems to have gone so I can't tell. FbF by any chance did you just post that to wind me up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcy_Boi#133 Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 FbF by any chance did you just post that to wind me up? Hope so! IT could be a Daimler 250 or a Mk 2 Jag, either way it's past it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FbF 656 Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 its a mk2 definatly, jag badge is still on steering wheel. and eric, no i didnt post it to wind you up. i think its a really nice photo of a nice undistirbed mk2, if you get wound up be rusty cars then your more of a nob than i thought.

mcrew Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Eriks right, that is a waste of a lovely old jag. It wouldve been far better off it had been stripped and raced! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erik Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 I don't get wound up about rusty cars, I like to see rusty Granadas/Sierras. But ha ha, you can't race that particular Mk2 But some of the body panels might still be some use to a Mk2 RESTORER! (A restorer is someone who returns a rotting/damaged classic to a roadworthy state, rather than just stripping it, painting rude words on it and thrashing round in bumper cars in a field).

erik Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 (edited) I didn't mean to offend you, but up here, bangers are little more than bumper cars in a field. Not nearly as advanced as Hotrods, Saloons or even Minis. They are good to watch though. Edited June 27, 2006 by erik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
