Glad you enjoyed it

Another great video with some lovely cars and commercials. I bought a 1960 2 door saloon Morris Minor 499 HNN for £80 in 1974 which belonged to my uncle in Yeovil. It was a 948cc engine with trafficators. Unfortunately I was transferred with my job to Redhill in 1975 and by December 1976 the rigours of travelling weekly up from Somerset on a Monday morning and back home on a Friday afternoon proved too much for the old girl. I loved that car though and am forever perusing the Internet looking longingly at Minor 1000s. Alas at 70 and with no mechanical expertise my dream of reliving that part of my past seem unlikely.

Good looking show. nice collection of cars, P1800for me. Cheers Bob

What a great bunch of way cool cars. Fantastic video would nujbthstn

I am reminded of one of the many items we used to manufacture in an old English bakery here in Canada! ECCLESCAKES! Enjoying the old English Cars and trucks! CHEERS

Morgan's would be a favorite. Eccles cake is apparently enjoyed with tea and Lancshire cheese. But mainly there was Eccles by Spike Milligan who knew what time it was because a nice man had written it down for him on a piece of paper earlier in the day.

Love those lorries!

Good one RJ. I shudder to think what it must be like at OCC Base on Saturday evenings with both you and Harley editing for your Sunday uploads. it must cost an absolute fortune to keep those lorries on the road and in the excellent condition many are in. That also looks a first rate event. Harley's can look like an Aladdins Lamp. That W109 is magnificent

We edit up the videos throughout the week then upload them with a few days to spare usually (not always!!), the uploads can take so long that I have to leave them running overnight quite often - and even then they're often still running well into the following morning, so it can take a lot of forward planning. Running out of space on the PC is another major problem. I might do a vid about making the vids sometime. Thanks as always for watching this stuff!

Born in 1962 i have very fond memories of the families and their family cars on my street. There was me and my older brother and sister in the back seat and we had enough space in the likes of Vauxhall Victor and such five seater salons but there was a family of six kids, parents and a dog all in a Morris Minor, another family on my street with five kids, parents and a small dog all crammed into a Austin A40. Different times.... Happy day`s.! Love your videos.

Laughed out loud at your comment that the verrrrry flamboyant, but still stylish, black Buick is a Standard Vanguard on steriods!

Years ago, maybe 10 or 20, there was a t.v. commercial here in the U.S. that used a neat little van (I don't recall what they were selling) and I wanted one. Here in this video I learned that it was a Morris like the one beside the Bedford transporter. Thanks

What a great large show, fantastic to see not only the motorised section put the horse power as well. That red Mercedes SEL for sale looked very tempting.

Thanks so much for doing such a detailed video of our local show. I was also there all day and missed so much of what you covered. Well done. You are right about that red E Type series 1 semi lightweight recreation, it gets super hot with the hard top on in the summer. Quite toasty on a typical spring morning mind. Those 4.2 Jaguar engines would make nice stoves! Next year please come into the classic car entrance with your Standard 8 and its £3 for the car and all passengers!

Fantastic show - thanks for uploading. I do tend to watch these larger videos in 30 min slots due to time constraints - hope this doesn't mess up your KZread 'stats' too much re retention etc. Thanks again 👍

Thanks for watching, I guess many people do split them into shorter chunks (I'm sure the stats prefer single long views rather than multiple visits but that's what I'd do too!!!!)

I ABSOULUTLY loved this video. I am a vehicle fanatic and do many of the Yorkshire. rallies. The furthest I go is Lincoln, unless I'm on holiday! I wasn't aware you did videos as well as the slide shows. Being of certain age, dad had many of these cars! I do have my own channel too. Please just ask if you are interested. A lot of my videos are rallies and museums etc. I wonder if you are familiar with a guy I follow from Stafford, GDB Recovery. Thank you for such a great video. Thank you for the longer film too. I hate these short videos that most vloggers do! Take care. Richard

Because of my brothers love for BC cars and VWs of that period i hav also taken an interest. Getting behind the wheel of an Austin Healey 3000 , Tr4 , MGB, Sprite, or Aston Martin has changed my perspective. Working on 67 bus, 72 Spitfire, 68 bug ,63 Porshe 356B ive changed my personal choices. I liked driving the MGB and TR6. i have not liked driving older British sports cars. The Porshe was fun but i dont recomend modified Beatles . They ride rough. i am tall and must have the drivers seat all the way back. The Sprite was too cramped Maxda Miata is suprisingly a comfortable fun car and probly as close to an Elan as im likely to get. i am building a project car using The Austin 1300 body that someone modified for a pickup. it now sits on a dune buggy frame and Karmin Ghia drive train. it sports a Spitfire gastank and steering wheel. Roshedale seats.

A few observations.... I very much liked the Triumph 2000 as well, and it had possibly the rarest part you'll ever see, that being the Triumph labelled blanking plate for the radio hole. Next, I had at one time a particularly good Vauxhall VX 4/90 FB, and I thought that it was so nearly a really good car. It just needed 1.8 litres instead of 1.6, and an overdrive. But really, I'm a Vanguard guy (when I'm not a Rover P6 guy). It was good to see the Phase I, though I own a Phase 3 estate, which was on the page your little book kept opening to!

It's getting quieter for shows etc, it depends where in the country you are, then maybe search around on google and facebook to see if there's anything coming up

As well as draining the radiator in those old lorries.Somtimes a fire was made underneath the engine to get them started.Or Somtimes leaving them running overnight.

The lower window in trucks on left side were so u could see cyclists or pedestrians , when doing a left turn .

ERF and Foden were family members, not necessarily always on speaking terms !
