Have some dismal 1959 shit. It was the last year you could buy this from Ford.... 103e.jpg Despite being called Popular it was a hateful thing.

Strange Marina thing. Obviously last used for a gypsy funeral...

Spotted this thing today at a car show. The LHD jars a little but otherwise it is pure Onslow....

I had forgotten about the Pennant. Lovely things, by far the best of the little Standards. Mate had one back in the day and despite an unfortunate shade of dog-dick pink it provided many memorable jaunts....

Strange how at home that P38 looks in a field of scrapped, older cars. As said, though, some of that VW trim will have survived and be valuable - the only things that can destroy some T2 and Beetle interior parts are Dubbers. Really do like pics like this, more so than car show ones!
