Micky's Big Mouth T
This Model Ford T-bucket - touring body with a 3.5Ltr V8, was my 'delivery van' a few years ago. Delivering crates of Mickey's Big Mouth beer around London. The year before I had driven a silver glitter covered Citroën Visa van, with light-up ice box windows, for Absolut Vodka. All the brainchild of Dave from Marblehead who kindly lubricated our SB#12 launch party with Kraken rum. Good times.
(above) Me and John Dirty Whitewalls, were visiting (the now long-gone) Hamrax on Ladbroke Grove for some new brake pads as the front wheels were from a Honda.
The magnificent Jaguar IRS; the resplendent spinning cherry of every jacked-up British built hot rod in the 1980s.

Jag IRS, slot mags and "Happy" Hamrax - truly another era....
Mickey's Big Mouths were immortalised in Tom Waits' Franks Wild Years. Quality
Rusty, I was listening to it just the other day. A top five favourite ever song for me.
'Spent piece of used jet trash, made good Bloody Marys...'
Made me want to buy my daughter a chihuahua (that she really, really wants) just so I could name it Carlos. G
Have a Jag IRS stashed away somewhere. Stripped it down on my mums kitchen table in the 70s.
Gary get the Chihuahua I want one too.
Rusty & G,
"....Never could stand that dog" one of my faves too.
Phil,
how do you stash a Jag IRS?
Do you have an exceptionally large space under your bed? or did you bury it in the woods?
