Super photo..! I try to imagine the history behind a car, and why it ended up in this condition at the end of its life..!!

Great find Ann, the car grate and corrugated background really work well together, nice lighting too.

But great for photo opportunities!

Voted ... no true, respectable Englishman would let an old Jaguar deteriorate in this manner (unless he was from Manchester)

Full of interest - would be lovely to see it restored though as well!

Love this shot Ann, is sort of has a poignancy about it too.
Lee G25-Jan-2009 08:42
Still full of charm though! What a neat find.

Another JAG that's worse for wear!

Well-used and no doubt well-loved!

And I am not done yet, look at all those rusty spots all over it....character, Ann. It shows true character :)

The worser it gets, the lovelier to me.... :)
I am no English buff, so excuse my very poor grammar. I mean to say I LOVE this poor old car.

I bet that looked really smart in its heyday. Always good to see old cars with that style of number plate - raised white lettering which is prone to damage, unlike the silver on black which you often see on restored cars.

Good catch Ann.
