There was a Lincoln Continental that he had in the early Seventies.

^ It wasn't that one, but I could swear it was that model in slightly different colours that was involved in a prang on the eastbound M8 at Townhead this afternoon - appeared to have taken a bit of a knock to the rear wing. Shame, especially as it was clearly decked out for a wedding - I only hope it was on the return journey.

I saw those buses today at about 1pm coming out of Allison Street, 3 of them turned right onto Victoria Road heading towards Queens Park and one of the GG buses turned left and headed towards the city center.

anyone know what they were out for?

There was an old bus run advertised a couple of weeks ago. I think it was on the bank holiday monday after the EK classic car show and it was pissing with rain which was why I didn't go. That, and I had about 450 old car photos to wade through...

Pleased someone caught up with it though. :)

I swithered over putting this here or in Oddities, seeing as it's a bit of both:
