A 'period' classics pictures thread (Mk III)

[Yertis]

Can we please keep this part of PH politics-free? Posting this kind of stuff will have the lefties descending en-masse grom NP&E to tell us we’re all bigots or something.

Agree.

Back on topic, Marseillan Plage (between Agde & Sete, S. France) in the late 1960's.

Its changed a bit since then…

That's quite an enterprising service from the RAC

Even with rudimentary technology there were often ways to accomplish clever things, given a little thought.

I thought I knew, 60’s/70’s Italian classics, clearly not!



One for the cars, I didn't know existed.

Should have added 'ALFA ROMEO GIULIA GTC'.

Loving the Ariel. I wondered if it might be a VB, but from the little I can see of the exhaust it's an OHV engine.
I'm going for an early VH500 "Red Hunter".
Whatever it is I wish it were mine.

As it's Le Mans weekend.

Just over 40 years ago and we arrive at the circuit in my RS along with my convoy buddies in their MG Midget and XK120…..
