| ![]() Yes Harit this car is very much in Hyderabad can't remember with whom though. i am sure DKG will be able to straighten the record on this. The mascot is identical to that on Keval Kant Gir's Austin of similar vintage maye ther is a connection ??? Opps sorry for jumping the alphabetical order. That picture looks like its taken outside the Assembly building...love that hat don't see it in use these days Last edited by wasif : 22nd October 2009 at 19:50. |

| ![]() I think this yellow MG used to belong to Kumar Varma at one time. It was later painted maroon too. Kumar also owned that Lancia Racer which is now with a fellow BHPian. No idea who owns that MG now. There was another MG in Hyderabad which used to be brought out very rarely by a young guy whose grandfather owned it. Was white if I remember correct. This had vanished from the scene by the late 90's Till the time the Pondi Ashram TC came to Hyd these two Mg's were the only ones around. This set of pictures is very interesting. In the first picture you can see Rashid Bhai's Lincoln V12 Sedan. The last time this car ever entered an event was the one at Krishna Oberoi. He had entered around eight cars in this event including the Jag SS100 replica in fact this was the last outing for this car too and his Yellow Buick Super Eight convertible and the Ford V8 sedan. Please do post more pictures from your archives. Looking at them is like a walk through memory lane. |

Senior - BHPian | ![]() Najaf Mirza's dad used to have a white MG, remember him giving me a drive in it down Masab Tank when my father and I had gone over to see his bike collection. Not sure if you are referring to this car |

As fo the yellow Buick I think Rashid bhai has two, a Roadmaster and a Super. One of the two, I think the Super, may have come from a childhood friend of Dad's Mr. Badrivishal Pittie (who probably had it since new) Last edited by DKG : 23rd October 2009 at 12:40. | |
