Now here's a question; if you could go back 50 years, how long would you go for? Knowing what you do now of course - no mobile phones, internet, credit/debit cards etc.

You'd have the the money you have now but 2018 inflated. Two grand for an E Type? I'll have two. Nipping down to a BMC dealer and paying cash for an 'S', because you just would. A £10'000 house would be quite something. You'd actually have to go to the pub to meet wimmin. You'd see some epic live bands, watch the RAC, and cruise down to Monaco in January '67 to watch those cheese eating surrender monkeys* get a bit of BMC two finger action. It would only cost you 200 quid tops.

I'm not sure I'd come back tbh. :lol: ...bear in mind most of us working then were only on a tenner a week if lucky !!!!!!.. foxy52











*Sorry to our French mates, but we're still a bit pissed about that.
…...bear in mind most of us working then as young men were on a tenner a week or less !!!.. a pint of beer the equiv of 4p.. fish an chips the equiv of 6p and 20 fags the equiv of 11p or less.. seems light years away !!! lol foxy52

Arden Accessories, Not Arden Engineering.

Sometimes I wish that people would occasionally look at the main site. :(

Those cowboys ^.

The company Mini Van might return to the road on day, with every single accessory stapled on.

Greet Birmingham, old Tyseley Cinema on left hand side.

Do you know anything about the railway bridge in one of the photos above Costa? Could it be the bridge where the '63 great train robbery took place
