Classic cars forum & vehicle restoration.

Now that the clocks have changed and the days are short, cool and often damp I'm getting round to sorting out my picturs from various classic car events in Norfolk that have taken place since the beginning of July. Rather than start a thread for each I'll put up a sample picture from each event and a link to a gallery with lots more pictures that folks can look as if they are interested. As I work through my pictures I may add a few more galleries and if so I'll update this thread. Anyway here goes with the first few galleries worth :

North Norfolk Classic Vehicle Club "Show & Shine Evening" held at Sheringham golf club on of 23rd July.

Bit of an unexpected late season addition here. Went to the Remembrance Sunday event at Old Buckenham Airfield on 11th Nov as they were rededicating the memorial to the 453rd Bomb Group that had been based at the airfield during WWII. Part of the event was a light aircraft fly in but there was also a pretty decent selection off classic cars and military vehicles on show.

Another late season addition. The Charity Race Experience Day gives people a chance to go round one of the circuits at Snetterton as a passenger in either a track racing car or some form of (generally sporty) classic car. The classics use the short 300 circuit and the more modern cars use the longer 200 circuit. The benificiery was the Ronald McDonald House Charities. There were quite a few clasiscs out on track ranging from an Austin A35 to a Delorian as well as several Triumphs. Others were on display with local club stands.

With the forecast for snow and ice over the next few days perhaps these pictures will remind us of warmer weather. They were taken when the VSCC summer tour of East Anglia had a lunch stop at The Bell public house in the village of Brisley in Norfolk last July. I'm not very good at identifying pre-war motors so if folks know the specific models of any of the cars feel free to let me know.
