Daimler Dart:-



































The worlds biggest Jag meet (4500 Jags expected) is next Sunday at the Queens cousins placeat Harewood House near Harrogate will post somemore pics afterwards.

 

Looks like a good turnout Buck? Weather seemd to have been ok too?
Some nice examples of Jaguars efforts over the years on show!
Did you see any co.uk guys there?

Good pictures, thanks!

 

Nice pics as always buck! Thanks making us all jealous! I know I wish I was across the pond over there! How come there aren't any nice s-types in the pics?

 

Great pictures , thanks

 

NICE!! Wish we one of these event in the states or just on the West Coast for that matter. Since we are on the subject of pics, I've attached some of my own. Enjoy!

 

 

There are if you look closely Aquill,just in the background where they belong.....lol
Calm down Biggie for gods sake, you'll give yourself a heart attack!! ROFL

Gotti.........love your car mate........Love the mesh grill......Have you thought about doing the lower o match?
Those rims are just awesome, but, with all the chrome around I think it takes the eye away from them, just my opinion.

Thanks Jim! I'm actually getting the lower grille as well; when I get some extra funds.

I think the addition of the lower grille will complete the "look". In California especially the Bay Area, the more flashy the better. I think the lower grille will compliment the look w/o over doing it.

At least I didnt do the chrome door pillars, and chrome headlight & taillight surrounds. No offense to anyone who has those accessories, but I think its tacky. Then again some people might think my chrome wheels are tacky, but to each its own, I like them!

 

Sounds great Gotti.......post the pics n let us see when ur done.
Just one thing though, dont know if you've considered it or not ( possibly, you're a chrome lover, I dont know - if so, please don't take offence as its just a thought)
What about dechroming the bumper inserts, removing the side markers ( although I think they may be klaw there?) same with the grille surround too.
Totally bodycoloured.....really showing off the bright mesh within the grille ( upper n lower of course ) and drawing your eyes even more to those stunning rims.
You haven't said, but you got private plate too Gotti or not your thing bro?

Bigdreams, hope the owner of this Aston doesnt see you telling people its an S type

 

It drizzled for the first hour or so.On the way I was behind the green E Type but he took it easy all the way, I washoping he would show me what it could do compared to mine.
The area openend to the public from 10am but there were only a dozen or so cars there until it brightenend up around 11.Then they just kept on coming in.The pic of the SS is actually a replica based on a XJ6 running gear and 2 year old body!Dont think ithad power steering as the old blokewho was driving seemed to struggle to park it.
Stue turned up in his 2.0 Diesel X Type and stayed most of the day and DieselDave turned up in his 2.7 Diesel S type but went home after 45 mins, funny that....all the other cars startedpiling inafter he went

 

I know you took the picture Buck, but that's an S buddy! If you see the purple box; that stripe the Aston doesn't have. The brown box shows the Fender Pull on the S, that looks an AWFUL lot like my fender pull. The aqua box highlights a side marker, in the exact spot that the S has it. The black box shows the S-type side mirror. Last but certainly not least, the green box shows the body line of the S that is distinct to Jaguar, and that looks beautiful and indistinguishable! Any Questions? JAJAJA!

 

Lol@ "everybody turned up after dieseldave left"
Poor ole diesledave!
Stue there as well huh....
I think our American cousins would love to have a day like that Buck..........perhaps you should organise sumthin?...lol

JC

PS....Dont think you've convinced Biggie that the car in the pics an Aston Buck...........Gotta admit though, brief glance to me seeing only the front quarter section, looks a lot like an S to me too

 

All you guys in the USA.Take a couple of days off on the sick fly over here (book return to Leeds/Bradford airport as its just 30 mins from Harewood House) on Sat and by the time you arrive we will collect you,take you to Harewood House for the meet with 4500 other Jags on Sunday.After tea and scones we will drop you back off at the airport where you can fly back and recover from the jetlag on the day that you are off sick....there Jim, how did I do?

 

Sounds good Buck.........count me in
I'm all for improving our transatlantic relations.
Any takers?

JC

 

Sounds like a plan. I'll bite on a weekend! Maybe in December!

 

Ill be in England in August, not sure if ill be able to make it to any meets though. but if there are any, keep me posted

 

Theres a BBQ and vintage car and Jag show at Dalemain House near Lake Ullswater in the Lake District on Aug 19th
