I bought my Pop from Richard Conway in Torquay at the end of 2001 when it looked like this http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m149/timetraveldvds/pop.jpg I got it MOT'd and on the road in 2002. Engine was Daimler Hemi with Viva front and Capri rear http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m149/timetraveldvds/pop001.jpg http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m149/timetraveldvds/pop002.jpg Then in 2003 I took it up to Valley Gas who fitted a stock I beam on a lowered x-member http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m149/timetraveldvds/pop003.jpg http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m149/timetraveldvds/pop004.jpg I swapped the Hemi for a Rover V8 http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m149/timetraveldvds/pop005.jpg Then a mate of mine came round and started drawing all over it. A painting restorer by profession Richard Hearn did a good job of copying some artwork from some 60s Hot Rod Mags http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m149/timetraveldvds/pop006.jpg http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m149/timetraveldvds/pop007.jpg It's been off the road for the last 2 years but will be back out early next year.......... http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m149/timetraveldvds/pop008.jpg http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m149/timetraveldvds/pop009.jpg

just posted on another thread earlier that i didn`t like gassers, this i could live with though, some go the high is good so higher must be better route which to me ant right, this however is spot on.

Remember first seeing this Pop at Thorney a few years ago always looked like it was a barn find and had been used n abused many years ago .......Spot on
