DAWLISH "Drop In" Car Show

Post by DKWW2000 »

I popped down to Dawlish (town where railway lines keep getting washed away) today for a local car show, lots of E Types, DB6s , MGs Austin Healeys etc. Stayed for a couple of hours & just as I was leaving a Photographer asked if he could take some pictures of me with the car. He said he had not seen one at a show for ages and it was nice to see one again etc etc.
He was from Classic Car Weekly and wanted to put a feature in this weeks edition!!
It could have been a wind up but he looked the part ..........we will see on Wednesday. rdg

Went to this event again this year.......weather was good & again a excellent turnout.
The Practical Classics Rep was there again & took a lot of time telling me all about a Blue FB that was here last year.............I let him go on for a while & (he then asked if he could take some pictures of the Vert for this weeks Paper, I of course agreed) I then told him the FB was also mine.... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Here are a few Photos of today (especially for Thomas):-

My respect for the engeneering competion of the Aston Martin very rare in Germany.
