The small amount of rust on the wheels suggest that the DS hasn't been messed with. Is it all original, Roy?

Ah, the Citroen H Van, another classic French vehicle.

As a Citroen owner, I can't help but curse them for making such distinctive looking vehicles that I want to own but cost a fortune to keep on the road....

Some more from yesterdays daunner .. some two wheeled chariots courtesy of Area 51 custom shop in Clydebank. Not a lot of room to get into proper optimal positioning but, hey ho, one does ones best with the chance one is given, doesn't one, what?

The wee italian sandwich/coffee van has been parked outside a Coffee Shop next to the old Sandy Road Clinic in Partick all week - I'm surprised it wasn't moved on as it was clearly within the ZigZags at the pedestrian crossing any time I've passed it

Spotted a few old cars lately. Shame about my shit phone not letting me upload any pictures. Got plenty. Contract runs out next month so hopefully I can get them uploaded here.

Spotted an old Routemaster being towed along the dual carriageway at Stepps today as well as an old Triumph Spitfire and a VW Bay Window.
