Thanks guys. The rain on the windscreen is typical of the best view in such conditions as the wipers just smear it and reduce visibility! Sad

Fortunately you can always open the windscreen if it becomes dangerous. Rolling Eyes

I love these shots..a new angle on photographing old cars. I'm sure i have an ancient shot somewhere of my own, Tried it myself today. Was I driving at the same time? You might think that but I couldn't possibly say.

I'm the same, I almost never turn into a gummed envelope when I take photos when driving.

Nice ones Rick I like the wooden floor. Here is one I dug out of the computer taken in about 1984 in my Austin 10 Cambridge whilst in the Lake District. On that occasion my mate Lenny was driving. Not bad, that means that I have been restoring, driving and photographing Austin Tens for more than half my life now.

Another one in (I think) a Ford Zodiac taken in the early 80's.
