Pride and joy gates.

Pride and joy  gates.
Sometimes, I have to try to break the habit of landscape fences for something more urban. I saw this old, almost vintage car not far from my home some time ago now. At one time somebodies pride and joy, now forlorn behind these old gates.
HFF, enjoy the weekend.

This Fifty Six year Humber Imperial was the top of the range Humber. It was based on the Super Snipe series of cars and was built at the Rootes factory at Ryton-on-Dunsmore near Coventry

Thanks Carol. Bearing in mind that this is the age that it is and it was the highest in the range, I am sure it would be great if restored but all that cost money and time. I have the feeling that the owner of this has neither! Glad you liked it anyway.

Belated HFF, enjoy the rest of this stormy Sunday. Herb

You are so right Trester. 'Alte Schätze' is quite right!

Thanks Herb. That is quite sad and touching that the owner can't bear to part with it but can't afford to restore it. It is human nature I guess - I am sure there are a lot of us who keep things we are sentimentally attached to that don't work or serve no real purpose other than the memories they hold.

I am pleased we don't have to go out - it is blowing a hooley here! Enjoy the rest of your weekend. All the best Carol
