You took more interesting ones then I had taken! Most of mine were to help put mine back together so shots of underside and engine bays!! :lol:

I notice all your pictures seem to be ones which were not on the Marina stand! Amazed at how many turned up which were not booked in on the stand!!!
But a great turn out. Some I had not seen before.

It was a good show, we picked up two new members who were there with their cars in the general section. Steve Moss won overall best 1970s car for the whole show, with his TC saloon. I'll post a picture later.

Matt and the rest of the northern crew were down, dispensing fun and car parts to all and sundry, good to see you guys.

If you haven't been to the show, pencil it in for the first Sunday in August next year. The show has its own website now, you will be able to download the application form and send it in.

glad you all had a good day out catching up on old times. It does look like a good weekend away not really for me though, 950 mile round trip for an overnight to look at the same cars and buy the same parts you can get online, suppose its okay if you want to make money selling your stock though. :)

Totally understand about the distance and time thing Ray!
It was long enough for me to go up and back in one day and that is only about 240miles!! Plus I was not in a Marina so was doing nearer 70MPH plus a bit when conditions allowed, ie traffic :wink:

Next year I will be staying over night and going fast to get anywhere :lol:

Yes it was a cracking show not just for the Marinas, there was a very tasty Allegro 1750ss in metalic greeny-blue with black vinyl roof.
One thing that does need sorting out for next year though is the catering - one van :shock: , and that ran out of milk halfway throught the day - so no cups of tea! :roll:
Oh, and Russ, the blaze '78 mk2 super coupe is from our neck of the woods - well, Kiveton Park.
