Bhurty meet is tonight, it's rumoured that one or two steam-powered machines might be making an appearance Smile

A good selection of nice old vehicles. I do like the Vauxhall but I suspect that it stretches the construction & use regs rather beyond limits regarding lights and mudguards.

Peter

p.s. Does Buzzy's roller not require a registration number?

The Vauxhall's an unusual mixture of parts, from various sources, built over 10 years. It's definitely a one-off and very distinctive, if not exactly vintage in all respects...

I've no idea re the roller to be honest. Coincidentally I met up with buzzy yesterday, he was in the area on a test drive so we caught up with him while testing the MM and pulled over for a natter. I didn't have the camera with me unfortunately.

A few from yesterday evening, dad undertook his first run out in his recently-acquired Traveller.

Most of the regulars made an appearance during the course of yesterday evening. Highlights were this very smart Austin 7 Chummy, and an 1800cc Gilbern

Fine weather saw the regulars toddle over to the pub meeting yesterday, plus a few less-often seen vehicles mixed in.

Hmm! "Fit & Forget"

What shape is the combustion chamber, I wonder? Do they fit up side down?

Peter

I noticed a red MG passed me on my way into town last night, presumably coming from that meeting.

Excellent turnout yesterday evening, with a few new vehicles making their debuts. These included a cracking Austin Low-Loader taxi, a very original Wolseley Hornet saloon (1930s), a recently rebuilt A40, and another Gilbern GT that's recently found a new home in the locality.

I'd not seen the Super Minx convertible before either.

Forum-er buzzy bee also popped down with his Robey steamroller.

I always forget that's on. An old motorcycle passed a pub in town just as I got there (around 10pm), and there was an old car passing as I left, but I didn't see what, just could tell from the sound.

Hi
I wonder if that A40 was originally a countryman with the split tailgate, or a saloon (boot lid only) converted to a hatchback.
