Don't be shy Now...we can't be the only one's
« on: 03 September, 2009, 01:55:57 PM »
 Someone . . . . . Somewhere . . .. . in this vast universe of our's must be building a MAYFAIR 

Or have at least thought about it! Or am i the only one who gets all excited about it's many possibilities, think BRUM or Noddy or even CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG or how about a FOOSE inspired CUSToM JOB Flames, stripes, low riding Mayfair with  a banging sound system...........

Nope Must just be me then.... is there no one to prove me wrong? ? ? ? ? ? ?  ???


James, too many projects not enough time..........!

Hi There,
Now a CUSTOM / HOT ROD Mayfair sounds promising!

Just for inspiration, check out this link to 'Taylor Trumpets' (don't worry I've not gone daft!) http://www.taylortrumpets.com/frameset1.html

When the page opens, scroll down the BLUE section on the left side of the screen to the 'Boys Toys' title, and click on it.
Then all that's left to do is cover your keyboard with a towel, and Droooool!!

Have fun,
Regards,
Mark.

 :o :o  WOW and then some, we can cope with square shapes but those are just incredible think we will leave those to expert types wot can make curvy shapes.  But you are right Mark they do look great. Makes my Series 1 in the gallery look a bit square shaped  ::)

W O W ! now YOU'RE talking Mark,

i was thinking along the lines of the model A, by stretching the body about 12" and losing the boot and high seat back, also chopping a few inch's of the windscreen and adding 2 small doors. I think that it's more for my benefit than the nieces (If i can't drive it no one can  ;))

And all because i bought her a wicker basket and picnic Tea set, then thought  Hmmmm that basket is missing something... Ah i know what it is she needs a car to strap it too... ;D

Anyway i'm sure i will do Richards design proud....

Hi Guys,
The best thing is, that the company is in Norwich England! So that means if the lottery numbers ever come good, Guess who'll be off to Norwich?

I don't know if they'd undertake a commission to build one for joe public, but I think if you waved enough readies at them....!

Ahh well, just have to keep dreaming for now,

Regards,
Mark.

Hi Mark
Which company is In Norwich? I live in Norwich and thought it would be good to pop along and steal a few ideas but could not find any links to Norwich?

Thanks
