Anyone go down to Beaulieu autojumble last weekend?

We went along for the day, lovely day out but its certainly not what it used to be. Not very much vintage stuff there these days, that's nature of the hobby I suppose. Parts are a lot more scarce and the general interest is now in later classics from the 70s onwards.

i went in 2019 after the last time in 1982, i found it the same as you,
i did spend some money, but not much for 60's and backwards now, ebay has taken a lot of that trade i reckon.

It's been like it for years now, we go to both each year and have done for 15-20 years. It's a shame that the older stuff no longer makes much of an appearance but I understand why.

It's still a lovely day out, these days it only my Dad and me go and this time we found a lot of good war department marked wartime tools for our Commer truck.
