New Years Day 2022 @ Walton Bridge
Posted: Sat Jan 01, 2022 3:29 pm
Hi all,
Well, I went for it again. Braved the possible rain which never really came for a change, so that was good, as I actually chucked a bucket at the Cappa the other night to get ready for this meet... So this was arranged by the 'West London Classic Ford' guys. So I set off having had a reasonable lay in, as this was not a crack of Dawn meet and got down to the Holding area for the off to Walton Bridge itself. So here are the motors I met up with here...

There were a few more motors behind me, but for some reason I seem to have already lost these pics...
So off we set to Walton Bridge, to a filling car park and got nicely parked up all together....
As you can see, I ended up in a Cortina sandwich....

Who doesn't like a Granada or a MoreDoor Escort???

What about a very well turned out RS2000 MKII then....

Yet another cracking MoreDoor Escort...

If the MoreDoor isn't your thing. What about an Estate then??? Especially this very tasty one!!!

And what about Inkys Tow Truck.... I really like this.... (Cheers for getting us all together)

2 absolute STUNNERS here.... I think I'd go for the 1600 Sport if I was lucky enough to be able to have one!!!
Pic 10. Nice close up by jon taylor, on Flickr
While we're looking at the Escort's. How about a sorted original Harrier??? Love these!!!
Pic 12a. Nice by jon taylor, on Flickr

To be honest, I'm running out of nice things to say about the Escort's which came along. They're all stunning. Look at these 2.....
Pic 13. Nice by jon taylor, on Flickr
Close up time for these!!!
Pic 14. Close up by jon taylor, on Flickr

A couple of Cortina's beat us to the Cafe. But I was able to get a very nice Latte in the end....
Pic 11. First at the Cafe by jon taylor, on Flickr
These are nice, these are the ones I saw at the Black Swan the other week.... Looking amazing still....

OK then. Time for a few of the others who braved the weather...
