Is that about 1920s? It really is something.  Cool

Bet that knocked the owner back a penny or two.

Getting ready to be "out & about"............

A similar-era Bentley undergoing work at my pal Chris’ business Bespoke Bodywork in Church Crookham.

He & Dan have made up a wooden former for the mudguard which will then allow them to craft the metalwork into the lovely flowing lines of a Tourer.

Pure talented artwork.

Sorta qualifies as an oldie out & about.
I deliver to a car trader, who often brings home the more interesting stuff. His taste is a bit naff -lots of modern Mustangs, PT cruisers, modern "hemi" pick-ups etc, plus stretch limos & the like.
This 90s style street rodded Ford truck was on the drive this morning. Not my taste at all, but nice workmanship.

Out for an evening walk in the Hampshire hills & this chap's just gone trundling by. If you've got it, use it Smiley

Half past 10 at night. I've just got back to my car after a long stroll across the downs. Stood admiring the night sky & tractor guy's just trundled past again.
That's proper hardcore vintage tractoring Smiley

Well if anybody should know a Chevy ...  Cheesy

Andy, the side view of the truck made me think of ice-cream. Must be the colours.

Lovely sunset to enjoy.

Perhaps that chappie on the tractor just goes around and around. That could have been his 20th lap while you were strolling on the downs! Maybe he is doing it to:

a) get away from the football or

b) get away from his wife.  Grin
