Some of the totrods were beautifully built. The red '57 Chevy was gorgeous. There were 4 year olds there cruising round in cooler rides than mine!  Unlike bike rallies, where kids are let loose by their parents to scream about on mini motos being a real hazard to everyone around them, at Billing the totrod drivers have to have a warning flag on an aerial on their car & be accompanied by an adult when they're cruising. Who needs to drive fast when you look that cool though. |

Yeah, didn't manage to get a piccie of it, but it was a Fiat Multipla with a cardboard photo of a supercharger taped to the bonnet & cardboard tube sidepipes.  I'll post a full photo gallery just as soon as Lunatic sends me his pics. Hint, hint.  One of my favourites, Nice old Daimler with a big block Chevy engine in it. |

You just handed me a bag with 4 donuts in. You didn't say I had to share them. Anyway, you had half a donkey in a burger. |

Better pics than mine -that's not allowed! I'll have to Photoshop them to make 'em all fuzzy & out of focus.
Someone posted this pic on the NSRA forum. I didn't see it, but Shaun mentioned it. Look out for it in BritChopper soon. Apparently it took 12 weeks to build & it's the guy's daily driver. Wonder how far he drives in it?
