    There are one or two old cars around where I live. I will post images of them as I spot them as I am out and about. So I thought I would start a new thread where people can add their images if they wish. I will start with this fire breathing monster. I have no idea what it is. Maybe someone can chip in with a little knowledge about the car.

    For the first time in a while, I managed to get out with my camera. We saw the Ford model A club (I'm guessing) out and about. It is nice to see these old cars being used instead of being kept in a museum and polished to death. There are one or two other brands in here as well. We saw them parked up at the back of the local pub. So, here we go. I will post pictures. I have no idea about these cars otherwise.

    Hi Gary,
    It is an Austin 10 of about 1940 vintage. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austin_10
    If you scroll down quite a bit you will see one like this one. It is in really great condition for its age.

    Yes, they are A models, Gary. I agree with you. It is good to see them being used a daily drivers. Makes me wonder where they get parts from when they need them.

    You have to give the owner credit of owning this car, and not caring about it getting dirty.

    Most of them would clean up OK. It must be great to see so many of these old beauties on the road.

    Now for the other brands. Austin I think. Small enough to fit on the back of a trailer.

    One for Rayallen. I will be very impressed if you get this one. So without looking at the plate on the front of the car...... what model FIAT is this?

    Another angle to help you out.

    Good luck

    I couldn't read the plate beside the number plate. I could read the number plate but that didn't help.
