Is Samco still about?

Postby letstorque » 09 Jun 2010 08:45

I was down at Newquays run to the sun last week and didn't see the Black V8 beast parked outside the Hotel or at the show and shine on the Sunday?
Is he still around?

Saw him last month at the South-West Triumph meet. He still has the black car.

It looked great at last years show and shine. Nice to see a real car among all the Saxo,Nova junk.

Found this video on youtube of sammy painting the car.
I this car just after he had painted it, and it looked the "dogs dangly bits".
All credit to him.

Looks better in real life with a better soundtrack from its rear.

Was minding my own business looking out across the main road from one of newquays pubs over the Bank holiday weekend. Amongst the chit chat of drinkers and barking of dogs, my ears where awakened by the Symphony that I crave for to eradicate the air cooled rumble of VWs from the Newquay air. Yes. Driving down the hill opposite was a wedge shaped vision in black playing that all important tune that only V8s seem to manage. In an instant, it was gone and suddenly I found myself having to listen to mrs neverstoptorquings rants about Big Brother, Corrie, Eastenders, Hair spray, etc etc etc.
Nice to see a real car again. Not sure on the bonnet stripes though. [:)]

He's teasing me. He did a drive by and gave me a nice memorable engine rev as I put my ear out to him whilst walking the dog. [:D]
