Re: My DICC pics part 2 (56k warning)
Easy tiger!!
The 2.8 was gonna come but its as low as a dacshounds undercarriage as it is and with all the camping gear, Andrew wouldn't of stood a chance!! Dave's Cortina Estate isn't on the road yet and Jon's Cortina is unwell so he didn't want to risk the journey.
on a lighter note tho, some great pics there chap, just love the one of the cracked sidewall or was it a pic of the wheel? some lovely motors there and had a great time (even if i was suffering this morning)

It was a 3.0s on triple carbs...
sounded like a bomber plane, the road runner sticker in the engine bay was a little tacky though.
Think its an MK car

Thanks Daisy..
I just try to get some images that aren't just "another capri" pic, so I get low or go close, try and capture the little things - ford logos, holes in brake discs just visible through a wheel, carb linkages, etc...
Can't fault the camera for £60, though dont buy tesco value batteries, they lasted about 6 minutes.
