Whilst at the Scottish Transport Extravaganza on Sunday I spotted a couple of interesting cars.

First up in a 1961 Austin Seven in very original condition.

Note the dot on the door lock

Plenty of original features still under the bonnet

The interior has a full set of Karobes plastic covers attached and what looks like original carpets.

The other car was this Almond Green Austin Mini. Looking like a bit of stocker from the outside apart from the exhaust, but under the bonnet it's a bit of a goer (nudge, nudge, wink, wink).
