Forget the yank truck....that commer is dead cool !!!!

Vettes are one of those cars that require thorough inspection, my friend traded a rust free but cosmetically challenged 1967 Galaxie 500 for a beautiful '74 Stingray. While in the process of changing the 6 u-joints, we discovered the frame underneath the fiberglass rocker panels was completely rusted into pieces.

So lovely to see Jupes out and about in Suffolk again this truly made my day big time😊❤❤😊

Ah memories. Hope you and Jupiter made it home. Around 12.30 was particularly poignant for me to see the Austin Metropolitan - one (number plate 3000 CD) was my pride and joy in 1970 but which I gave up in rather sad circumstances. Wonder if it is still around.

Thanks Lawrie, glad you enjoyed yourself, good variety of vehicles! 🙏🙏

So lovely ❤to see Jupes out and about in Suffolk again this video made my day big time! 😊❤

It looks a lot more comfortable driving Jupes instead of the 1930's truck from last year. Like the fact the Ransomes machinery factory Land Rover was in the run.

What a lot of lovely old vehicles. It just needed some classic motorcycles to finish it off. I'm glad Jupes made it. I had my classic Yamaha DT3 250 Enduro out on Easter Sunday on a charity run, it did the run, but seized about 5 miles from home. What's broken now!

There were quite a few motorcycles taking part, My dad was one of them.

As much as you love to hate on it, that Reliant, or something very much like it -- or, miracle of miracles, a Bond Bug -- is basically two-thirds of my want list. The other entries are a Piaggio Ape and a Chinese Tiller Truck. (Arguably there's actually one other vehicle, but that is very, very much a DIY job. Don't ask unless you want a veritable novel of an answer, you have been warned.) On the larger side, that ancient truck you had last time, that would be kind of fun I think. I forget the name, it was the one that supposedly terrified you when you took it on the Dual Carriageway. (You overacted that like William Shatner, BTW, it was hilarious.) That, and one of those steam traction engine things, that would be awesome. I _love_ steam stuff. (As if you couldn't tell.) Of course, the question on everyone's mind -- did Jupes make it home all right?

The fact that there is no footage of the journey back or being back at the shed is slightly worrying!

This is such a good event and so well organised. I took part in my Beige Saab 95 estate. My dad was on his 1977 Honda 550 four. We both remarked on what a fun happy experience it was.

The biggest unanswered question is:- Did it start and get back home?

I'm surprised at the amount of American muscle on display this time. Congratulations on getting Jupes out successfully!

At 17:40 in the video, was that a black Ford Fiesta from the 80's?. That was my first car just after I'd gone to college. It was a great reliable car, but not great for changing the oil & filter without making a mess.

Huge event!! Imagine the fuel bills 😅

I think it's probably a 12v compressor running through a 24v system

I think you should stick with the fire truck and work on upgrading both it and your license so that you can pull a flat bed ramp trailer with it, of some capacity. Then remove most of the firefighting gear and replace it with road service tools and you have a great service and towing rig with which to pursue all your other machinery interests.

Did you see a double decker bus that is pure red with a white stripe in between the top and bottom deck with the license YHE 240 we owned her years ago and I’m trying to find her for my dad

I guess not.
