A recent visit to Classic Wheels at Oakham yielded a great many cars I'd not seen before, most of which made it into this evening's video.

With the Standard and Pilot gone to new homes, it was time to find a suitable replacement.

Evening all, tonight's upload sees us enjoying the sunshine at the recent Capesthorne Hall car show where a very pleasant time was had. I'm interested to learn if anyone reads the posts in this thread, if so could you please pop a note below that'd be useful, thanks.

Yes, I read them, but never quite know it we're supposed to put replies or comments on this thread, for fear of dragging it off down a rabbit hole.

Yes indeed, I read them....
Sadly [or not?] this forum doesn't have any of those instant acknowledgement buttons..
I know folk go barmy accumulating ''likes,'' but they can also indicate who has read the posts...if not having read them correctly? [A hazard, I suppose, of tinternet?]

Videos are a foreign language to me. I happily watch those which Rick posts especially of his visits to informal car car meets. I love those small scale, sometimes spontaneous meetings with a wide range of cars. At one such gathering I was taught how to drive a Model T Ford; something that will live with me forever.!

Once I came across a Jowett Jason..you don't bump into them every day, do you?


Quite how you post a video onto a forum I don't know...but then me and technology are not very good bedfellows.

Yes. "likewise" I read them, well I must admit "some" of them, but that's controlled by the amount of online time I have.

Rick: Is there any way of noting how many "Views" are added after each new Rick posting?

Only the overall view count for each post when in the forum category itself, ie https://www.oldclassiccar.co.uk/forum/phpbb/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=1

Thanks, RJ

I try to read the posts daily and watch Rick's videos to see all the collectors cars, particularly pre-war cars.

Have to say I do not view the videos much. I can appreciate the time you take making them but it is not my thing. But very good for another audience.
But I do read the posts in this topic as I do read most of the posts in all topics.

...plus, next time you're aiming to flog one of your cheaper vehicles, it would be nice to have a heads-up, {or, a quick advert?] on here first, before the dealers get their grubbies on them?

Just sayin'... Smile Smile

Morning folks, yesterday morning was spent checking over the entries in the upcoming Brightwells auction. Lots to see including an impressive line-up of pre-war beauties.
