How ugly is that yellow Ferrari ???
Some nice looking old Ford's, cool Dolly Sprint and Frogeye too. Do love TVR's, shame they were never very well screwed together though.

Yeah its not very nice at all lol.

There was an american car there, cant remember what the make was and didnt take a pic, but it had a 6.6 v8 and did 10mpg on a good run and 8mpg driving through a town.

Don't worry about what the make the car was Jezza, if it was old and American 10mpg would be normal! They all relied on straight 6 or huge capacity V8 engines to produce fuck all power but buckets of torque to drag the heavy bodyshells about. They didn't do cornering either!

Probably the most amazing car there, for all the wrong reasons is the early 60's Vauxhall Victor next to the Sunbeam Alpine. These things were the biggest rustbuckets ever made, so there's no excuse for not having your G in good nick in a show twenty years from now.      6.6 litres = 427 cubic inches = AC cobra which went, but yes, was shite on the corners! Dibs on the yellow Ferrari.
