Classic cars & more at the "Anything Goes" evening car meet | Whitchurch Motor Club

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The rippling power of the '56 Standard 8 propelled us to this year's "Anything Goes" classic car, modified car, and indeed any interesting vehicle meet held recently, and a fine old time was had.
This annual gathering in a large field a few miles from Whitchurch (Shrops) is organised by the Whitchurch Motor Club, and attracts all manner of vehicle. Rally cars, modified road cars, classic cars, and even a few vintage cars, can be expected to turn up, as can a healthy smattering of old tractors, lorries, motorcycles and more, and 2022 was no different. So popular was it this year that an overflow car park had to be speedily established in a neighbouring field.
In this video we head over nice and early in order to see most of the vehicles arrive, and this being a classic car channel, we focus mainly (but not entirely) on the older cars that turned up. Unsurprisingly, we were the only people to arrive in a Standard, hot on the heels of a pre-war Austin 10/4 that we caught up (!) on the lanes approaching the show field.
Other classic cars in evidence at the 2022 meet included a race-prepared Austin A35, the aforementioned Austin 10/4, plus an Austin 12/4 taxi, Jaguar E-Types, many Mk1 & Mk2 Ford Escorts (road & rally), Ford Transit Mk1 vans, Triumph TRs, Peugeot 405 Mi16, a very original Humber Hawk, Viva HB & HC, Rover P3, Spitfires & GT6, Jensen Interceptor, Austin 7s (inc van), AC Cobra replica, Renault 18 Turbo, Rover P6, Opel Ascona & Manta, Mk1 Mini Cooper, XK140, Ford E83W pickup, VdP 1300, Cortina Lotus Mk2, Ford Cortina Mk1 GT, Aston Martin V8, Jaguar C-Type replica, vintage three-wheel Morgan and many more. Certainly plenty to keep the fan of older cars happy.
Please also take a look at the rest of the Old Classic Car channel's content as there are many other show visits now uploaded on here.

    Back in the sixties my grandfather sold his Singer 8 to a family run local garage near Carlisle. Around 1995 my father revisited the same garage as he was passing by and mentioned this to the garage owner. My father was escorted into the back of the garage buildings. There a very old chap was making tea and was keen to hear my father's story about the Singer 8 and said he knew exactly what happened to the car. In the corner was sheeted vehicle and yes you guessed it the old boy unveiled my grandads car!... The old boy had kept it all those years and fully restored it. My dad spent the afternoon with the old boy chatting and took the car out for a spin! What are the chances!

    @@oldclassiccarUK yes I'm guessing it's bound to be still around. Must ask my father which garage as I pass that part of the country regularly so I could pop in and enquire. My father did ask first refusal on the car should the guy ever sell it. So far he hasn't received a call. So I'm guessing it's been handed down. You certainly wouldn't scrap a car like that. Glad you find the story interesting. Quite a rare event.

    As a point of information, the Triumph 1500 switched from front wheel drive to rear wheel drive before it was called the Dolomite. My late father had a valencia blue 1300 front wheel drive in 1967 (JVC 389E) and then later he had a 1975 rear wheel drive delft blue 1500TC (JJF 812N) before they were called Dolomites. The front wheel drive ones had the sticking-out hub caps and wheels which were retained when they switched to rear wheel drive, as his had, but when they started the Dolomite the wheels went to more conventional ones with flat hub caps. As a 70-year-old (anorak) who was mechanicing in the 60s and 70s I still recall the details of a lot of these cars, and your videos bring back many memories, my only problem being that I keep saying things to myself like "they are the wrong rear lights for that year!"
