As Oscar Levant stated there is a fine line between genius and insanity. The posting should have been accompanied by this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Pride-Foldable-Travel-Bucket-3Ltr-Holds-Liquids-Ideal-For-Travel-Sickness-/351339167038?hash=item51cd723d3e:g:Ni4AAOSwv0tVAG7Q

I'm struggling to see any evidence of 1927 Chevrolet or 1924 Austin in either of them!

To be fair Ken Barrow has shown a great deal of skill and perseverance to produce those vehicles.
It's just a shame he diddn't apply that towards renovating genuine vintage cars.

Well most wedding planners are not really interested in the accuracy of their props, so we shouldn't be too surprised by these.

The seller is perfectly honest in his description:
"its quite hard to determine the real cars from the pair here"

Can you spot the parts from real cars?
