Beautifully maintained car, and I always thought Ford Prefect was just a name for the character in Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy :)

It's a gem. That would have been a great shot.
I never leave home without my trusty Gerber, I don't think I'd have been able to resist the temptation to reach under that Tranny, snip the handbrake cable and give the ugly shed a nudge down the slope. ;)

Just had a quick play with the clone tool in Photoshop :) got rid of the nasty minibus (and the road - as it was easier)

He's called Ford Prefect because, from his entirely naïve perspective, cars seemed to be the dominant species on earth and so he picked a name that would fit in with them http://pwnt.co.uk/emot/emot-eng101.gif
