bravebrian's definitions
An aged but well maintained car, generally from the 1980s, that has been bought cheaply and lovingly restored to its former glory. Rusty Monkeys are typically bought cheaply (for less than £500) and restored to take part in charitable events, races, meetings or just for the fun of it.
Typical and popular Rusty Monkeys include the Audi Quattro, the old-style Ford Escort, the Ford Scorpio, the Trans Am and the original police Panda cars like the Ford Anglia.
