Classic cars forum & vehicle restoration.

[Geoffp]

This weekend was the open weekend at the Bonded Warehouse at Stourbridge. As well as the canal boats there is always a fantastic variety of old cars, etc. So, to give you a taste of the event, here are some photos taken this afternoon, in rather poor light unfortunately.

First, a beautifully restored Phase 1A Vanguard:



Hillman Aero Minx:



VW fastback with 1300 GT (I think) next to it:



Locally manufactured Bean:



Vintage Cluley ( that's a new make on me) with a 1934 Hillman Minx to the rear:



Finally my favourite, a fabulous 1925 Model T Tudor sedan (with Riley RME in the background):



I will post some photos of a few of the other attractions later.

Here are a few more pictures just to give you an idea of what else was there:

Ex Harpers AEC Reliance with Burlingham Seagull body; I thought that a rear three-quarter view would make a nice change :



Next, 'Wolverhampton Wanderer' a very well known Fowler 10 NHP crane engine, which d spent its working life with boilermakers John Thompson and is now owned by the appropriately named Len Crane :



A couple of fairground organs; the first one 'Lady Wulfun' When I first got to know it and its owner, Joe Davies, it was built into a trailer and towed at the end of a 'train' of a 1940s Scammel tractor unit and a 1920s showman's living van, now it lives in the back of an LDV Convoy van :





Another of my favourites, a local (Tenbury) Austin 2-tonner looking just as if it had just dropped a load of farm produce at the station to send to the Birmingham markets, but now with a different sort of 'load':





Now, a couple of tractors for Buzzy :

1943 Fordson Standard:



1958 McCormick, built in Doncaster. I was following one of these a couple of weeks ago as it was taking the hop harvest to a farm, so tractors of this age are still doing a job of work even today:



Finally a couple of Supercars for Rick , I think that they were originally part of a fairground ride:
