Cannot picture me now in flares and a curly perm and Bay City Rollers gear.  What if you are the same age as your car do you go about in nappies?

Hi Rick,
it dont stop there 
My uniform is a copy of the one M Spooner (Brandts chauffuer) was wearing when he drove the car in the 70ies, got 2 pictures with him wearing it.
Got my sunglasses from their original owner, who bought them new in 1972 
The girl next to the car, is Lärke, she was also in pictures for the Classic & Sportscar article.

Only when being paid....
I.E Victorian fairs etc, they normally ask for a cap, shirt, waistcoat etc...
Occasionally wear a top hat on an engine, just to stop the cinders landing on ones head...
Cheers

No, only adopt similar poses to those around when my car was new.
