Cars I wished I had kept
Kharmann Ghia convertible, LHD, totally useless soft top. I drove it all year round, in England, with the roof down! I hand painted it with grey 'Re paint', before giving it away in 1971.
A Lloyd Saloon. This one got painted blue but I never did get it running.
Biggest regret in hindsight, Rusty yellow VW Beetle convertible, with sliding bolts to hold the doors shut. When I put this car over a friends pit, we discovered that not much remained of the chassis. It went to the great highway in the sky in 1972. About ten years later I came accross the logbook, which showed it as a 1130cc car of 1949 vintage.
