Hello jesper, welcome along, you do like taking photos! you have loads.

How did this happen? Was a close one by the looks of things.

I'll show pictures of my cars in that section!

I heard of this forum on www.2cv.nl, I took a look and
it just looked good...

The driver/owner of the car in question has never admitted that it was
a close one. The rest of us - travelling through Scotland after the WM
in Kelso - thought differently. An oncoming Astra didn't want to stop on
a passing place and a misjudging of dimensions caused this.

The gentleman in the Landrover had to be persuaded to get the Acadiane
out of the ditch. After that, we could continue the journey.
Nobody and no car was hurt in the event.

Neil,

Yeah its Noel restoring the car how did you guess? Just got pics today of a new frame with suspension attached. Its moving along.

aha!! i just recognised the industrial units from the picture you posted up. That & i took a lucky guess!

Excellent! start a thread in 'Your A-series' about it, we love to see projects coming together!

I will be picking up the car on june 13th. Flying out to New Jersey and driving it back to Chicago. Don't have many pics now to start a thread but I asked Noel to take alot thru the rebuild process. Should have more when I pick up the car. Can't wait to drive it!!!

I bet you can't!

How far is that? sounds like a real mission for it's first outing!

Can't wait to see it.

Hi there,

I've just been going through the websites email inbox (we rarely check it, by rarely, i mean never! we couldn't even remember the email adress!) and I noticed you had already joined under another username and had trouble logging in, sorry about that, I'm glad you stuck with it!

Actually same user name just had to re-register no big deal.

June 13th to pick up the car fully restored and a rebuilt engine too. Plus some extras, Noel has his hand full!!and a 14-15 hour drive home, good trip for its maiden voyage.
