i keep looking at the pics hoping to see more i like but i have come to this conclusion... for me personally i only really like pops in black, original ratty black, matt black or shiney black... no graphics no or fancy paint jobs just black
wierd because i wouldn't choose most other cars in black, guess i just think their shape suits black...
no particular order,
Mr Torquer, speedfreak, Gary McCormacks Fordson, pinball wizard, TOE 911, ALS GASSER, orange apeal.

It started for me in 1979 following the build up feature in Hot Rod & Custom UK
Fast forward to 1999 and I finally have it sitting in my garage
Forward to 2009 and its still sitting in the garage, but now I have all the parts I need...it may have lost its registration along the way, but this is the same car I fell in love with 31 years ago.. It will be next in line after the van
Anyone got any more photos of it in their collections?
Firstly, thanks to those who rated my green Pop enough for a mention
But when it was silver and red though ? ,will i never never hear the end of it,thanks guys![]()

So here are two vans and two cars,and strangely,there is a black and bronze thing going on.

Excluding my own Pop, my top ten (couldn’t narrow it down to three!), in no particular order…

I'm chuffed some of you have put my car within this lot. As for picking a favorit, i dont think i can. It's easy to judge a car on looks but i think a few Pops would make my top 10 because i know they get used, and used pretty hard. I even like stock Pops.
Gary McCormack's van always did it for me though. I wouldn't of changed a thing.
