Now that really is rusting into the ground.

One of my favourite 131's in the best colour.

Does anyone on the Forum have a useable S2 Super Panorma

I am going a bit OTT with it, its rust free now ;D I can't decide on a colour :-\  the velour will be the beige/gold :) hope to have it done before 2014.

A few years back when i was still sourcing Yanks from South Africa I was contacted by an old farmer that wanted to sell his "Collection" of cars, this is what i found? Although solid you can see what the sun can do, never bought anything as he wanted to sell them as one job lot. G
