Stony Stratford New Year Show (Pic Heavy!)

[quicksilver]

I spent the first day of 2013 at this most enjoyable event where the town centre car park and market square are taken over by classics. The turnout was quite astonishing - there must have been over 150 cars there but I didn't photograph the common things (MGs, Morgans, Minors etc.) or a lot of the pre-war stuff. Just a few highlights here but there should be something for everyone - more at http://www.flickr.com/photos/quicksilve ... 333449817/

 

First spots were in the car park before I even got to the show

What a cracking selection of old motors. I was scrolling down the page going, like, like, want, yes please, PHWOOAAR (Gordon Keeble, need you ask ) then I saw the Tatra and I may have let out a little squeak...

What a glorious thing to see on a cold January morning!

[skattrd]

Top spottings, thx for sharing.

[ashmicro]

Thanks for the pics, most excellent.

[stuboy]

very nice shots

[mk1_4dr]

Great pictures of super subjects.

 

I muchly want the Challenger, grotty Consul and Classic Capri. Also I *think* the drag-spec MGB is owned by a chap who frequents the forums, specifically NSJC. All home built and running decent numbers IIRC.

[Lord Sterling]

Great spots quicksilver! Thanks for putting these up. Pretty early for such an event.

[hairnet]

OMG
