Me and my ride

Post by girlracer »

As many people at the recent meet said it would be nice to put the faces to the forum name and car. I kept getting confused with who was who but i kinda got the gist of it by the end but now i only remember a few, saying that it was easy for you men seeing i was the only woman there!!! The following is a photo of Dai and Myself. Please contribute seeing this is the second topic i have posted during my time on this forum.

I'm on the left in this photo and my car was the green GLS. I couldn't match names to faces/cars either so this is a good idea, (just ask steveP :oops:)!

Good idea for a thread Vicky, as I had a bit of trouble remembering names to faces after the first meet I was at! It is good though to be able to put a face to a name, so here's my contribution, I hate seeing pictures of myself, but in the spirit of the forum I'll subject you to one I had to take tonight!
Image
My 360 GLT
Image
My other 360 GLT Fioner, soon to be Carl's.
Image
My first GLT in better condition before it's damage occurred, it will see the road again!
Image
My 360 GLT Diesel! 2.0 Turbo Nissan lump.
Image
The F reg 1989 Saloon, to restore or not to restore? That is indeed the question, time permitting, too many projects!
The newest one to join the collection is my 340 GL Variomatic, pictures to follow, once I've cleaned it and found room to take a picture!
Image
Some random bloke. :P

If I'm going to post a pic, it might as well be a funny one. Me looking like I could scare away young children...

And you've all seen the car more than enough :-P

I believe there's also a picture going the rounds involving me, my car, and a green coloured container...?
