That P5 camper is ASTONISHING!!! Must be a home-build, surely? Looks well done though. The Mk 1 Escort camper is lovely too.

Just a few spots from the Wolverhampton Steam Fair this afternoon; a lot of the heavier stuff had left early as the ground was waterlogged.

 

Nice Ford Pilot:

 

Very original looking late Minor van:

 

Winnebago:

 

I always like to see old trucks working for a living:

 

Well-converted for the fairgrounds and still looking immaculate :

 

Pick of the day, lovely old ERF with built-in fairground organ and living van in tow leaving:

This outfit has been as far as Waldkirk in the Black Forest under its own power. The man is a hero

 

Finally, taken just before I got arrested :

[Justin Case]

Bromyard Gala now moved to its own thread.

[MrRegieRitmo]

I always like to see old trucks working for a living:

 

My pick. I love an old B Series (and C Series)

[scooters]

indeed - i seem to recall that PC said there were only half a dozen or so Talbot Matras left on the roads - truly a wonderfully mince car

[brammy777]

Those ERFs are such nice lorries, so many are used as the main tractor unit on fairground lorries, also get the odd Foden as well.Theres a B/C series ERF in a dodgy looking yard full of circus lorries in hook and its cab has fallen off the chassis.

[VWPowered]

the 205 Van is called a 205F (Fourgonette)

 

my mates got a Mk2 Cavvie Convertable

 

[pompei]

A line up of Silver Cross prams How surreal. I think they still make them and they cost a fortune.

[VWPowered]

wonder if the babies were an option extra...

[Justin Case]

Just a few I found while looking through some recent photos for the shite museum thread:

 

Princess two roads from me, has lived there at least 10 years, probably more (also on museum thread):

 

Series 3 in off-farm condition:

 

Rare Dodge R38 low-loader (were these built in Spain?):

 

Heavy Volvo F10:

 

I would have loved to have picked this up and taken it home:

 

280SE:

 

Finally, day out oop North to Buxton

No Morris Marinas but plenty of Morris Dancers :

 

Camera battery expired just as 504 pick-up went by , so had to go and cool down:

[King Maz]

 

Ah! Bloxwich.

[Justin Case]

A few more for your delight

First one or two from an agricultural show yesterday. I find myself getting more and more attracted to the heavy stuff

Rare to see a Scania 93 working for its living:

 

Never seen one of these before:

 

Fabulous Field Marshall, I just hope it never gets restored:

 

Add your own comment :

 

If Autoshite did van hire.......:

 

Local car show today; anyone else like me can't be bothered to see rows of over-restored 70s repmobiles and British Standard Sports Cars. I found the car park more interesting:

 

 

 

 

I had the dog with me and just as I was disposing of the pooper scooper, this turned up:

 

Finally, spotted this this afternoon:

[michiel]

Love that Wolseley 1500 (or is it a Riley?)!

[Justin Case]

Some shots from last weekend's 'do' in the park in Walsall, celebrating the 150th anniversary of the birth of legendary local showman Pat Collins:

 

Mighty ERF needs to be kept behind bars:

 

Walsall's answer to the scrappage scheme:

 

and it works :

 

Next, please:

 

One for Fred original Walsall number, so has probably stayed in the area all is life:

 

Catch of the day, rare original Scammell Showtrac, and it's the real thing, and only one owner :

 

Wall of death bike:

 

Wall of instant death bike :

 

Finally, small fair organ in small Fordson, would love one :

[keef]

Love that Wolseley 1500 (or is it a Riley?)!

You were right first time: it's a Wolseley 1500.

[Justin Case]

A few more, not too many, but a bit of variety :

 

 

Lovely 1950ish MG Y-type:

 

Alfa to the rescue of dead E-type :

 

LDV 400 creeps into picture postcard village view

 

Time-warp Minor still used as family transport :

 

Rare early 80s Priestman VC 15 still doing what it was designed for:

 

Arty shot of Defender:

 

Agrishite; barn find International Harvester (1960s ?):

 

Finally. Definitely not shite, but I couldn't resist this very purposeful Morgan +8, 450i engine, roll bar and oil cooler :

[warren t claim]

I drive a Scania like that for a living! Lol! Great truck as well. 700000kms and still going strong.
