What other cars do you own?

It’s the same as this one I’ve just spotted on eBay .
No idea, it's one of their customers.
This was my last fun project, which sadly now resides in France. Is legacy lives on though in my latest build
That's utterly gorgeous - immaculate.
In fact, it looks way too good to be an original - is it a Lister Bell, Hawk or similar? If so, what motor is in it?
Thanks @Chopman . It's the simplest way to tell an original / recreation apart. Lancia quality
It's a Hawk I built from new with a tuned Alfa V6 making close to 300 BHP and weighing approx. 900KG.A pic of it starting the Costa Brava recently

There's just something about them that I cannot quite put my finger on, but as a rally fan from the early 80's on - they are probably my favourite car ever (although a cobra comes close).
I'd probably even sell my van to buy one
For a brief time I co-owned one of Tony Ponds Sunbeams and ran it at Goodwood, more car than I could handle for sure! Remember well in early 80’s a Capri Brooklands 280i being rolled at Goodwood chicane, owner was fine but inconsolable........
I remember sitting in one of those at a car show when I was about 13 - dogleg gearbox if I remember correctly.
There were so many escorts around at the rallys that it was great to see a few Manta 400s, HS Chevettes (aka Shove-it) and sunbeams around.
Then came the mighty Group B monsters...

This is my weekend motor, nothing special, but I've always wanted a Mustang V8.

But this weekend my bro has borrowed the T6 and I've got his E63s, looking forward to the drive home I must say

I had a 71 Bay!
My wife and I got married and used it as our wedding vehicle, even the wedding cake was a bay window VW.
A good year for Bays, you get disk brakes, but keep the wrap round bumpers, low indicators and more importantly the small rear lights.
What's the plans with it @JimVee?
It’s MOT’d to March 2019, needs some tidying up internally and externally. Runs nicely, all electrics work, will give it a full service, only issue seems to be binding brakes but will refresh them. Underneath is rust free, just got the front seats and a full bed in the back.
Idea is to repaint but not sure whether to stay with original blue and white or go red and white like the T6. Matching pair lol.
Not sure whether to go camper style ie cooker etc or just tidy the interior and keep as is.
Wasn’t going to bother with a Bay just yet but it was in the next village and too good an offer as the lass needs to pay for a wedding. Got to get the 73 Beetle done up and sold first though before going too mad with the Bay.
Very nice vehicles there @Clivebase
