stradacab Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Can't help you with the white coupe, but there is a forum member on here called Ade who lives in Swindon, I wonder if it was him. He has a nice Black Berlinetta Coupe that has skirts fitted, black wheels and a 16 conversion. It was in the Your Project section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steel Posted May 16, 2011 Author Share Posted May 16, 2011 from what i could see the black coupe had some rust along/just above where the side skirts mount but looked ok ide say the guy driving was mid 50,sish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiney_norman Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Sounds like it could've been Martin Meadon actually! He might have been up that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
