British Car Swap Meet -- Saturday, April 25, 2015 -- Long Beach

VERY small swap meet (less than 10 "vendors") but still managed to buy a bunch of junk...

This XJ sedan was being parted out.  The seller was willing to take off anything you wanted.  Kind of a shame that such a classy design car is really not worth hardly anything...

The front seats looked like they were reupholstered at some point and were in very good condition.  Beautiful leather and the color was very attractive also.  If I had a car that needed seats, these would have been nice...







This long narrow unit (next to the Rolls unit) had mostly racing cars and a small shop area...

Open Rolls Driver's Area

Two narrow but long industrial units.  This one had 11 classic Rolls and Bentleys in it.

Genuine Leather Fenders.  Appears to be made of thick, stiff leather that's been glued to some metal bent bar skeleton then sewn in place.  Probably pretty durable if cleaned and maintained...

Engine bay of an old Rolls Royce under Restoration.  So attractively mechanical and rebuildable...

Interesting Brass Era Carburetor Collection...
