Some pics from today. The weather was absolutely fantastic and there was a nice selection of stuff.
I spoke to a guy who told me of a man who lived nearby with two D's in a shed, might be worth investigating some day!

Great pics Martin, though I am not sure on their definition of "vintage" - a Z3, MR2 mkII and the M-B SL??
Love the Manta.

Yeah it's a somewhat loose term around here, lol... some nice stuff though. Do you be back home much at all Dermot? If you're ever here you should come along to some of the local shows, or big ones like Kilbroney or Shane's Castle.
There's supposed to be a run on tomorrow from Cookstown, Derry, Letterkenny, over to the other side of the Swilly and back, but I hear the weather's gonna be bad. A shame as there are supposed to be some nice cars in attendance. Fingers crossed the storm takes a wrong turn and misses us!

Assuming the DeLorean in the photos is yours, Martin? The black parts on your car look fantastic. What's your secret? Impressed with how slick the black lower portion of the front bumper/skirting looks, not to mention even the rub strips too. Freshly painted? Replaced? Certain cleaning product?
Looked like a fun day. Similarily, I'll aim to post a few pictures after tomorrow's British Car Day show here in Canada.

Hey Jonathan, yep that's mine, the only D there sadly!
As for the black bits, I was tired of how bad they looked, all faded and dull... so I got some of this:

It's great stuff. I still need to do the sides under the doors and inside the door frames, and probably the trunk area too.
Here are some better pics:
