Just wondering, if you replaced every part on that car would it still be the same car?? And keep the Reg the same?

I'll try one of your own trademark cryptic answers as I have indeed contributed some posts on the vehicle to the FCF and know what it is.

It has a link to the great cities of Scotland Edinburgh, Perth, Dundee, and Aberdeen

There that should be obscure enough not to give it away.

Austin Atlantic, it broke a lot of records when it was first put on the market.
That left front wheel looks odd, too much camber.

A nice cryptic link there Neil, of course one does need a knowledge of certain aspects of Scotland to understand it!

I looked back and found a video Neil posted 10 years ago which is a pleasant 3 minute interlude to accompany a cuppa!

Occasionally I amuse or irritate myself in equal measures, by setting myself a challenge to determine the location used from a few clues in the footage. The video of the Austin Atlantic is a particularly challenging one, not many clues but satisfyingly I have just solved it.

My answer is in the spoiler with a link to the visual street view location. Nice little exercise of the finding out stuff muscles . I did home in on the general area with reference to the stonework on the walls and the distinctive building behind the red Atlantic, each area of the country has its own characteristic style.

There's another blue classic car hiding in this picture

Spotted whilst out in Bluebell today

[mickthemaverick]

Hiding in the corner of the car park at our lunch pub today was this beauty. Who can identify it precisely?

Own work

[NewcastleFalcon]

I would rather imprecisely say the Princess 4 litre R, if there is such a thing, with the rolls Royce Engine top of the head, and I wont get any closer without looking it up.
