I saw a picture of a friends Pop that was at the Mopars as part of the cruise down there from OW, it's the brown fairly stock looking one.

Great photo's as ever. Cool

It's been a while since I've done an update on the Fairlane.

After venturing out on that freezing Sunday after Christmas up to Wells Next to Sea hubby has been busy smoothing the rear lights, bonnet & boot, fitting a new light switch that actually works and playing about with the wheels.

End result:

Taken at Billing over the weekend.


Our daughter sitting on the rear bumper at a local breakfast meet a few weeks back. Rear lights look better without the crusty old alu plate someone had added.


Gone is the bonnet mascot and boot catch for that mid 1950's Kustom look. Still needs a little more work to get it looking really nice, but we're geting there. Cool

I love the new hub caps.

Thanks, we found the side on view poosted on the Retro Rides forum. The guy that took it has produced some excellant photo's. When ever I try to do arty or classy shoots I always end up with one of our kids joining in and pulling funny faces. Confused
