First drive out since last year

Post by Fordoholic Nick »

As title I got B112 out for the first drive since prob last November. Ran very well and almost forgot how good those 45s sound although they deffo prefer to be opened up than sit in traffic :lol: :lol:

Took this photo before parking back up in garage...

Aw Jason , I bought a tin of our spam ( might be the same stuff ? ) , ugh , right up there with tinned corned beef . I guess if you were starving it would be a welcome sight. I do like tinned lambs tongues but I havnt seen them for years and pressed ox tongues pretty good too. Huh , no wonder I keep getting fatter 😀

That's a lovely car Andy, bet it turns a few heads too. The black wheels really suit the colour of the car.

Hi Nick,
Yes it's a big old boat :) Although when you drive it it doesn't seem big.

Not had any noise complaints, but I haven't driven it before 10.00. When it goes out on a Sunday at 07.00 I'll have to escape quick, although the neighbours either side love the car :cheers:

Hi Paul,
As with the Capri, people that like cars look and those that don't won't take any notice.

I always said when I got one I wanted silver wheels, but you're right black wheels suit the silver paint and to be fair I prefer the black on any colour Mustang :cool:
