Guess what's under the cover ?

[GuyBoden]

Yes, obviously, a red E type Jag.

Any guesses on this one , it's been there for a few months but only just had the tarpaulin on and I have never been able to get a clear picture before.

Oh and I know what it is

 

[Sharky]

Triumph 2000?

 

[raleighnut]

Looks more Dolomite to me, a Sprint

 

[Drago]

Aye, I too reckon a Dolly.

Part of the natural life cycle of the Dolomite is to spend 30 years under a cover because the owner has vague plans to one day restore it, only for it to rot beyond redemption and end up being weighed in for scrap. In human terms this one is about 90 years old.

Think I'll change my guess to a Dolomite

Sans engine, looking at its stance.

Lada Riva ?

That may be what made me think 'Dolly', it could be on stands though.

No idea what lurks under this one spotted whilst searching for a recently spotted Citroen 2cv6.

All I could see was that the bonnet looked longer than the rear half of the car? And it had a single exhaust with twin tail pipes?

Other cars boxing it in were BMW and Mercedes

 

[Drago]

A Merdedes perhaps, or some mid sized piece of yank dross?

 

[CXRAndy]

A rapidly rusting vehicle under the non breathable cover, trapping all the damp air against the bodywork.

I once did this for a few weeks to my motorcycle. Removed the cover, everything was wet through from trapped condensation. I dont bother anymore, plain old thin cotton cover to keep dust off.

Old Y fronts?
