The " BEST PIC " of your car
« on: October 20, 2014, 07:42:09 pm »
i was impressed with the photo of Bobs Inter on the Rugby ground , please put it up here Bob , it made me think - what is the best quality photograph of your car ? I loved the photo David Sparrow took of my Trojan for his book  " The Colour Bubblecars & Microcars Family Album " . He obviously liked it too as some time after I sold the car Mike Shepherd found this commercially available postcard with the same photo . Do you have a particularly good photo of a car you have owned ? ...... Nice pics coming in  :)

Thank you, Marcus.

If you like planes and microcars, perhaps you'll enjoy this pic of the Science Museum's Bond Mk A (in their storage hangars near Swindon).
