My brother and dad each have a Vauxhall Viva and a Bedford Viva van. Recently someone told them that someone near us has a field full of old cars, including a few Viva's. So once I get back to my parents next week we are taking a trip there...the hedges are too tall for Google streetview so this is the best show I can get. Oooh to dream if there was an MGB V8 in there Very Happy

Looks exciting!......hope you manage to get in, these types of places are disappearing as regulations get tighter......strange though, as using broken or abandoned vehicles for spares donors is a great way of re-cycling!

I did Rick, most of the collection was long gone. All that was left was mainly some ADO16's, and some other BL stuff along with an invicar! Most had literally rotted into the ground though.
