    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f11rFHzfCqA. Mine is the blue 69 mustang. This has been filmed in 4 parts but was later in the day as most cars have left. Nearly £2000 raised for the cause.

    Nice, very nice. The star of part 1??? The first shown little Austin7, what I would give to have the one that I owned back again. The second Auastin 7, why oh why did it have the bungee strap across the bonnet, in my eyes it ruined the car. And Rostyle wheels on an Austin Cambridge esatate car?? no, no no . The red Jaguar XK was nice.

    As for the Morris Minor van with the ????! engine, it beggars belief. Plus the 100E's in bright colours with bumpers removed, Beetles unnatural as well. Good classics from my era totally destroyed.

    Unbelivable! i share what i think is a great show with some stunning cars which people spend their hard earned money and spare time on, and just because they dare to be different you all think it's not ****.

    Surely it's a matter of personal choice and opinion, some of us, me included, think a true classic car or bike is one that is as near original as possible. If however someone gets satisfaction converting their vehicle from original to a one off, putting their own 'identity' on it, then that's their choice. It certainly is not mine, but why should I care, if they want to spend their hard earned money that way, who am I to judge.

    No doubt about it, it looked a fabulous event, but everybody is entitled to an opinion, mine has been stated, I'm sorry if it didn't meet with your approval.:smile:
    Constructive criticism SHOULD be welcomed.

    Nothing constructive about the critism just seems people cant get their head round something different. Most of the cars would be crushed scrap inc mine if someone hadn't taken the time to restore them. There are a lot of original restored classics around but it's nice to see something different. Personally i loved nearly all the cars and appreiciate the effort that goes in to them. Certainly don't see them as destroyed classics.
