In the parking lot at work. It's beautiful.

My grandfather had the cheaper version, identical to this guy, a 1970 Newport.



His was a 440. Beast of a car.

In Guelph this am.   A procession of MGs.
All looked immaculate. All with the tops down of course and all the T series driven by old farts like me...although I’d never wear a tweed flat cap!

2 TDs , 1 TF,  1 TD, 1 Magnette, 1 TF, 1 TD.     
Not a wire wheel amongst them and surprising to me, not a TC  in the line up. There may of course have been some that I didn’t see.
I guess a meet somewhere.

This setup was ginormous! Can't imagine driving around in something like that in my leisure years.  :P

Well, it was sitting across the street from a boat storage yard.  I could store my whole life in there and still have room for a game of basketball.  :D

Looks like it could be hauling cars... maybe even a small race team set up?

Not sure where to post this, i did not personally see this but the story is funny.

Someone spotted this bent Ford F450 in the Edmonton area, shared the pic (and a video of the guy actually driving it this way down the road) on facebook. About 50 comments in another guy post a picture of the exact same camper and trailer setup bent the EXACT same way on a older Ford F350 he spotted in the same area a few years back. Turns out its the SAME GUY! He managed to not learn from the first time he bent his truck up! Note the long trailer tongue extension for the trailer, apparently he hauls some type of very heavy tools in the trailer (he sells them). Wonder what his insurance company will have to say lol. First pic is his "new" truck.

At least he is using a pickup to tow stuff. Now if he would just have put more weight in the sleeper part of the camper it would help level things out.  :rofl2:

Just saw a Golf R pulling a camping trailer (not a tent trailer).
Looks like he is putting his at good use.
Wonder if he takes the car to the track

My neighbour and his lovely E-Wagon I always talk about.



New supra racing with me to the office (looks real good in real life IMO. White is stellar)



Funny Vman...I saw that white Supra on Lexington and thought the same thing.   Looks really nice in real life.

Is that E wagon the dude with the Deutschland "D" country sticker on the back??

That's pretty much a standard setup for a race team with two cars.
