The "What ever happened to?" thread

Got loads of pics smudge ;)I've sent the DVD to Dano today, he's going to get some pics stuck up in the history/photos section so keep your eyes peeled. But to keep you going…..

Gaydon '04



Gaydon '05



Gaydon '06 - The only pic I took that year, which Glen and Ross will no doubt thank me for! :lol: No one wanted to take ownership of the 'supplies!'

Shortstuff………I heard something about uprated lighting looms, or lack of!!

I used to go to a few south west meets with Daisy and mark83, when the meet was at the Taunton beefeater?

Used to really enjoy that, remember meeting some nice people there;)Also remember driving to a xmas meet there, (hours drive for me), carb icing etc, and there being just 3 of us!

My friend brought Daisy's/Darren's white mk1, but it wasn't running very well by then, and he had it taken to a Bosch specialist with the original Bosch diagnostics machine, and got it all sorted. Pretty sure it had a cam as it went like stink! He had it for a far few years sorting bits out and then sold it. (not sure who to or where?)

I'm sure daisy/darren still has the cab, but haven't seen him for a few years now

I still see mark83 on the regular, and we are both still developing our mk1's.

Bring back the south west meet of old!!

He moved to the states - I assume he's still out there? I think he posted up when he got out there with a pic of an old Camaro or similar that he'd purchased.

He was a top bloke ;)

What happened to 'markwon?'

He was one of the original members and must have been responsible for one of the bravest, most epic resto's of a MK1 ever!  :ocf_emoticons__notworthy:

I wonder if it's finished?
