Event Didsbury Car Show 8/7/18

[Junkman]

There were two Lamborghinis.

 

 

 

The Urraco is a daily, used for school runs and everything.

[Junkman]

356C, one of the last ones made before the 911 took over.

 

 

 

Don't these just sport the most delightfully half arsed cateyes?

 

[Junkman]

Your 912 is our concern.

 

 

[Isaac Hunt]

Arrived about 10 , asked if I was with a club, said autoshite and got a puzzled , what , so I'm in the main arena20180708_114759.jpg

Could have been even more quizzical looks if they'd asked for user name

[Junkman]

Someone polished some alloys.

 

 

[Junkman]

James Bond had his car painted auction red.

 

[Junkman]

Can words even do this justice?

 

 

 

[Junkman]

This almost made me collapse.

 

[Junkman]

It's inside this French car.

 

 

 

Even the rest of the GGG looked at the correct car for a change.

 

 

 

Look at this:

 

 

 

 

 

Faaark.

[Junkman]

A Humber in Autoshite Racing Colours.

 

 

 

 

My Vintage Tyre.

 

 

 

 

Squire found a car to match his hat.

 

[Junkman]

Princess Anne has fallen on hard times.

 

[Junkman]

There is room for more. A lot more.

 

 

 

But how often do you see two Rochdales on one day?

 

[Junkman]

Squire then found the car that suits him worst.

 

 

 

It suits me a lot better*.

 

[Junkman]

This Royce was a lot more delightfully shonky than this pic suggests.
 

 
 
 
There was a colour matching proper Mini.



 

Sadly we failed at explaining to Conrad that this is the car he should buy.

[Junkman]

By all accounts, this shouldn't exist and it really had me think I'm having hallucinations for a second.

 

 

 

It's a 2000 TC, no less.

 

 

Squire was unimpressed in the light of such newfangledry.

[Junkman]

There were a few centuries confused with each other.

 

 

[Junkman]

The Saint also had his car resprayed for resale.

 

 

[Junkman]

Rah!

 

[Junkman]

My brother in engines.

 

[Wack]

The GGG was all present and correct.

 

There's me, fat bloke at the end, just noticed I appear to be a member of the American auto club

[Junkman]

What a shame. Dusty road was also there, but he did approach us.

[Ghosty]

My brother in engines.

 

 

You know this had a 1.6 GM engine?

[Junkman]

It either has an R16 engine, or a wrong one.

[Ghosty]

Well it's wrong, then. It'd been re-engineered.

[Junkman]

Anyway, my Silver Star of the show (right behind the Facel Vega) goes to this.

 

 

 

This is how My Vintage Tyre is done properly:

 

 

 

Wafer thin door skins:

 

 

Were it Italian, it'd be hyped as Superleggera.

[Eddie Honda]

But how often do you see two Rochdales on one day?

 

 

Every August.

 

Fairthorpe Sports Car Club Historic Specials Day, held at the Cotswolds Wildlife Park, nr Burford, Oxon.

 

(I drove a Lancia (there and back from Watford) back in 2004. Lovely day out and I think I saw 4 of them.)

[Squire_Dawson]

Great photos. It was a good show, had a nice variety of chod. The Facel II was simply beautiful, looked so good in black.

[Wack]

Just noticed this is on tomorrow 

Probably a bit late to do anything about it now 

 

Edit

Just tried to book , it's full but if you're local it's a good day out 

[Wack]

Blagged it
