In my memory that was very Marque- and Model-specific, e.g. it was highly
presumptuous for a Triumph to wave at a Jaguar, and even Austin Healey
owners were likely to snub a Triumph. Triumphs and MGs being on more
equal footing didn't want a friendly wave so much as a good drag race, and
even some TR owners haughtily would look down upon Spitfire pilots.
Maybe the camaraderie among LBC-ers today is even greater than it was in
the '60s and '70s.

Indeed, it should be revived. And even more importantly what happened to
the wonderful old custom of flashing ones highbeams to warn oncoming
drivers of a speed trap in their direction. Thats one tradition that I
miss even more...
