Title: Today's Krispy Kreme Donuts rod meet
Post by: Manky Monkey on July 18, 2010, 06:18:11 PM
Taz & I spent the morning at the Krispy Kreme drive-in donut shop in New Malden, on the outskirts of ol' London town.
On the third Sunday of each month there's a rod meet there. Glorious sunshine & the promise of hot donuts brought the motors out in force.

Nice early Chevy sported a crate of moonshine & a violin case.
Unusual bonnet louvres.

Any colour you like, as long as it's ...pink.
Well preserved old Vauxhall.

Very smart model A pick-up. Not seen this one before. Nice detailing & sounded like a very modern engine under the hood. Had a tax disc but no number plates, but it drove away at the end of the meet.

The Krispy Kreme meets run from early morning till lunchtime-ish.
The carpark's not particularly big so expect to park wherever you can on the roadside. The drive-in's on the corner of a busy road junction so remember to watch for cars when wandering about with a camera.  :P
Burn outs aren't compulsory -but seem to be positively encouraged.
