It just suddenly seems like a worthwhile pursuit............I do have a thing for Corvettes and early Mustangs, or are they too new?..

There’s a guy in our village with a 1950’s Chevy pickup. Not restored just as is complete with the odd dent or two. Sounds cracking bloody great motor it just growles as he drives of. I am a tad jealous if truth be told.

How did you find yours was it imported by someone who deals in that sort of stuff?

Pretty much every week there is an impromptu meet just up the road from me. A mix of high performance and custom, US vintage and modern muscle cars. That's always fun to walk around.

Theres some names from my past,I've seen The Cramps,King Kurt and the Meteors. Covered in crap at the King Kurt gig. The Meteors gig you took your life into your own hands down at the front. One band I did see and left thinking what a awesome gig...Stray Cats

I like some of the classic American cars. Actually really want the current Camaro too. An affordable 6.2L sports coupe? Yes, please!

Eleanor is the pinnacle of an awesome Mustang.

I can listen to Rockabilly, Imelda May more was my gateway into it.

But the cars are fantastic looking machines. There’s a Raleigh that happens each week in Kissemeee Florida I saw once, it’s a spectacle to catch if anyone has the chance. Some of the love that goes into restoring and looking after those cars is amazing.

The cars are amazing and we have found the people are really lovely that we meet on the scene too.

Love em too, not fortune enough to own one. Love the American car culture programmes, Chip Foose, Boyd Coddington and the Gas Monkey guys have done some great work on the 40's to early 70's cars. A 63Impala, as driven by Nero in SoA is my favourite, but I love the Ratrod stuff on Sin City motors too, although that's an acquired taste. Steve Carell is a genius with this genre of motoring.

Musically, do like the early Rock n Roll too, but then again I like Slipknot too, pretty much all music I can listen to.

I am. Love the style on a lady but unfortunately it doesn't look good on me. Used to love going to the Dice Bar in Dublin which is a great spot for the scene. Know a good few people into it and also love the old classic cars. Have a few friends in the classic car scene.

Brighton - even Hove!

Saw a 57 Plymouth at a vintage rally I went to and he had a leather jacket and d.a. and she had bobby socks and an A line skirt - very 50’s.
