  • Family Album - Bring back the 80's

    Bored this afternoon, ventured into the loft and dug amongst the photos, bit of a mixed bag for you all to have a laugh at, please feel free to take the pish ..........thats what we are here for

    Son

    This would be about '86 , very low mileage Escort Linnet and my mates DT125LC



    Prob about '88, Mini Sprite , wish I had it now they are worth a bob or two, used it while OEC was being restored, sure this was an RSOC night treasure hunt thingy ..



    Burghley House, 87 ? , bring back the 80's ..... Jak, the future wife then



    Another she'll kill me for ..



    My first RS2000 , KEC284T , Riviera base model with early seats installed



    Used it everyday, rain or shine ...





    Drayton Manor RS Day



    My 1300 Sport, mint car, one previous keeper a vicar, when I bought it the 'Sport' script had been taken off and it just said '1300', he didn't want to shock the parishoners







    My first car, 2 door Avenger with half vinyl roof, I was 16 at the time and my dad used to take me on the back roads learning to drive, the good old days



    WTF ......



    My DT50M , 83 or 84 , near Sellafield where I would shortly spend 23 years of my life being bored , not to be confused with Sommerfield



    OEC running 7.5's in about '91, used the car for work most days and concoursed at weekends



    This was after I had sold OEC then bought it back 6 months later, think I must have liked it a bit judging by the photo



    My only Mex, sold to Ian Harwood, I gave £300 for it and thought I'd been done



    The Mrs, wearing team colours



    Think the old Datsun in the background dates this one, my mate on his 900R



    K7RUD (L275HKS), concoursed, Gold Cup winner, put me off concours for life, couldn't wait for the season to finish , think Eddie ended up with this car





    En route to Europen RS/XR show, 96 ?



    Made a change from Escorts, my first TR7



    Garage has seen a few motors over the years









    Couple of belters to finish off, who remembers The Smiths and Bros ... ?
