Just needs a matt black bonnet and a number on the doors to look like 1970 again!
Really like the spotlights, very RAC rally.
Great pictures of a car in it's natural environment.
Thanks,
James.

Those snowy landscapes look familiar.

Here is one of warmer times which I just found and posted on another thread, but it definitely qualifies as an on-the-road picture - halfway to California from Calgary.... This was the maiden-voyage of the old girl, so I hope I can be forgiven for not getting that bumper on right. Don't ask me what I did wrong, the next time I got under there, she fell into place.

I attach another one taken FROM the Volvo on the same trip.

Took the car out to a Cars and Coffee event, and it was mobbed by people appreciating something different, and the Gas Monkey Garage guys from the Discovery Channels Fast and Loud Series couldn't resist taking a look also..

In the next couple of weeks I am going up against Gas Monkey Garages Aaron and Casey with their entries at the Ultimate Street Car Challenge Qualifier, and it will be aired on MavTv later this year, and here is a video of what the Ultimate Street Car Challenge is.

I guess these guys and their programmes are on satellite TV, as I've never heard of them............. After the YouTube preview certainly something to turn the sound DOWN on for me, can't stand these roaring voice presenters.

Its on Discovery Turbo. One of the better one of those type of shows I find. Although they do tend to slam and bag everything. Some nice cars all the same.
