Kudos to anyone who keeps it in that condition.

Does anyone remember COMMER vans and Leyland Sherpa? any of those still alive around SL?

Go to Armour street/quarry road area. U might spot a few sherpas, a couple of Commers and even an old Morris Minor Taxi driven by an equally old fella. I doubt if he gets any passengers though.

There's also a 11 Sri three wheeler (the oldest model which has the engine under the driver's seat) in Colpetty area. I guess that too is a classic in a way.

The pics used to be there....it was a light lime green color...damn....or wasit silver...no it was the green

That car was advertised by the owner and taken off again as the Owner decided to restore it. Its getting resprayed as we speak I think. The engine was completely rebuilt to race spec too...

Talking of classic cars what are the oldest cars in SL still in daily use (not the ones used in shows or rallies) but for day to day use and the registration series eg:CE,CN,EY etc i dont think any X,Z reg car will still be used ha?

There is also an original Lotus 7, belongs to the obeysekera family of maitland crescent, has quite some racing history i believe.

MD usually what will be the price of a replica , just to know

Well there is no set price,as the couple here were made by the owners themselves from exact blueprints...but about 10 years ago Rhamzi advertised his red car with the Carina GT engine for about 1.5 million,so it's safe to assume it'll be atleast twice as much now.
