Title: Frenchay Vintage Vehicle Extravaganza 20th july.
Post by: Moleman on 11, April, 2013, 06:58:31 PM
Frenchay Vintage Vehicle Extravaganza at the Frenchay Museum at entrance B at Frenchay Hospital.
I don't know much about this one but I got a heads up from Sprint 7. (thanks for that. :))
I rang the organizer who informed me that they have plenty of space & get alot of cars turning up each year & this year is 100 year anniversary for the Hillman Imp. As well as an appearance of a car that has broken one of the land speed records. (sorry forgot which one?  :-[)

It is held on saturday 20th July. 2-5pm but has asked that anyone who wishes to show their car to turn up between 1-1.30pm.
I think the best thing to do would be to meet up somewhere before hand & go in together if this is possible. no worry's if not. we can sort this out closer to the date.
By the it's also free to attend this one.  :D

What do you think then guys?  ;D


Edit: Added to calendar

I will probably attend.......

I went to this a few years ago and it was certainly a pleasant gathering.

I remember it well as the hose to my radiator decided to spring a leak, so a fairly normal day out.

Sorry folks, can't make this now.. I was out last night and heard a pop, went to stop and brake peddle went straight to the floor :o. Now I have a nasty metallic rubbing noise coming from one rear disc. Lucky I have a warranty.

Made it!  Only managed to stay for half and hour before the little-ones got bored.  However, plenty of interesting cars packed into a small area.  Sorry, forgot to take any photos.  Did anyone else?

Hi all, Pity that quite a few had to abort this show as it was a very nice afternoon with a free cup of coffee and postcard for showing your car. See what you missed  :P :P Some interesting cars and people in attendance and cracking weather Grommit
