    Just hit 1900 msgs, another 18k + and I'll catch up. My brother in-law starred in a movie with that name ( The Legend of 1900).

    according to the stupornet...its probably pretty accurate...only time i ever saw one of these oddballs was on Top Gear UK...

    The Aston Martin Lagonda is a full-sized luxury four-door saloon which was built by Aston Martin of Newport Pagnell, England, between 1974 and 1990. A total of 645 were produced.

    Smarty pants Sean told me to tell him a car type and he'd text me a picture of one from the show. He failed. I told him to get me a shot of a Nash-Healey and he was ashamed to say he couldn't. He's quite a big talker.

    Hillbilly or 66G have one though, I'm sure.

    There was one in the mix. Looks kinda' like a big Austin Healey or MG, but I'm not into British sports iron so didn't take a pic. It was older than the 54 American Pickers bought. Whole lot of other odd stuff was there so don't count Sean out yet. Got a free show preview at the hotel, both the Buick and Olds pace cars, the Tucker, Toranado, and a Merc Turnpike Cruiser owners were staying there too Had a great bull session out front late into the night Never caught up with the owner of an 82 Rolls Silver Spur from Florida that was there too. That Rolls would make a great replacement for an early 90's Town Car, I like it. My friend Steve Plunkett from London, Ontario brought another of his sweet Cadillacs and joined in the bull session, still wanting my 55 Caddy woody wagon. 55 Cadillac wagon.jpg

    Never heard of ( Lucas, Prince of Darkness ) or why Brits drink warm beer when they own Lucas refrigerators? It's a running joke about how unreliable their electrics were in the past. Lucas electrics.jpg

    Past an present. I'm getting most all of my parts from Moss Motors in Goleta Ca. They are pretty good about warranty's but its still a PIA to swap them out.

    It goes to show why the British military won't use their strategic weapons if it's raining. That Bugeye Sprite's awesome.
