Frenchay Vintage Vehicle Extravaganza 20th july.

[Moleman]

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. 

What do you think then guys? 


Edit: Added to calendar

[foggy]

['Mendip Wurzel']

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.

[Sprint 7]

It's a nice little show ,friendly people and a chance to show your motor . I've attended for the past 3 years I think and always had a pleasant afternoon.Just thought I'd let everyone know.

What happened to all the rest then .Bri Anna Foggy  etc. If it's only me at the wicket course you can jump in with me .The Hood is running a bit rough at present and the brakes ain't  too good but I am prepared to take it steady as I started the thread and ought to be there.
!2.30 pm at the Willie Wicket then .See you there.

['The Gaffer']

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 . Now I have a nasty metallic rubbing noise coming from one rear disc. Lucky I have a warranty.

[Bulldog Bri]

I'll be there 

[Hairy Santa]

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?

[Bulldog Bri]

Only took one pic, thought it might interest the BEC boy's

[Sprint 7]

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  Some interesting cars and people in attendance and cracking weather Grommit
