Cars around the Green - Evenley South Northants

[Cock Womble 7]

Blimey, has it been a month already?!?

If I remember to set my alarm, I'll be there.

[bigburd]

Tis a local event for me, but have yet to make it...and this coming Sunday I am in Kent so a no go. But it is now firmly in diary for future dates

[squadron leader]

What a great event this is turning into. We had a brilliant turn out today with cars ranging from a 1915 Model T Ford through to a '59 prototype Corvette. Add to this a smattering of Caterhams, TVR's, a Ferrari,an E Type, an R32 and a couple of TR6's. One of the guys with a TR6 got talking to one visitor who used to have a TR6 and he said I used to have one of those and have got loads of bits lurking in my garage which he quickly went off and fetched back and gave them to Steve the owner. This is what these kind of events are about.

There was lots of car talk and bonnets raised to peer into.

Have a look at these pics taken today and see if you'd like to come to the next one.

Cheers,

Phil
ps. Added lots of pics but only the first one is showing. Don't know why the others aren't on here.

Thanks to all of you who turned out today. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did

Yep, another cracking turn-out Phil. Couldn't have asked for better weather either.

And the Caterham Massive was well-represented, as per usual.

Here's a few pics what I took:

Great pics.Thanks for posting them up. How do you get more than one on here at a time?

I've got a Photobucket account. Just copy the links from there into the "img" brackets.

I'm jealous of that Corvette! Couldn't make it today sadly.

[bigdods]

Corvette was glorious. Another great morning out.

Here are a few phone pics I took

Nice to meet everyone today - that '15 Ford was lovely.

[theadman]

Great event, Phil, just right for a Sunday morning! Well done for organising it and for making 'new boys' like Alex and me feel welcome.

Good to meet the rest of you, too. I never knew driving a Model T was so different.

...car I'd most like to have taken home - Vette!! Car I would have never managed to get home...Model T!!!

Bump : Not sure if I can make it but recommend it to those that haven't attended

[squadron leader]

Yoohoo...!! it's this coming Sunday for our monthly gathering. Who's up for coming to join this increasingly popular gathering?

Last month we had a real variety of cars turning up - it would be great to have another interesting mix of cars to drool over.

See you at The Red Lion?

9.30am onwards.

Cheers,

Phil

Going to be a long day, evenley for the regular meet then off to southampton for the tall ships PH meet. Lets hope the weather is kind to us !

Not such a large turnout of cars this month - which was lucky given the number of bikes present! I'll do the car photos first, and follow up with the bikes later. Unfortunately I missed the F328, but think I got everyone else:

And the bikes:

[squadron leader]

Phew! what a day..!! Thank you to those who turned out today.
A good mix of cars today - albeit not so many as previous meets but still a good showing. The day had an added bonus of all the old bikes turning up for the Bill Lacey Memorial run which happens every first Sunday in August.

Thanks for posting the pics up. It does help to show that we are a bunch of 'petrolheads'.

Hope to see many more next month for the official 'LAst meet' of the year. Although there is nothing to stop us meeting all year if we want to. We could always sit in the back room of the pub which has got lots of motoring stuff on the walls and talk cars and engines etc.

See you next month?

Cheers for now,

Phil

[scovette]

Pics look good. Will be there next month - gave this morning after getting stuck in the queue for Ford Fair - an hour to travel less than a mile...

[squadron leader]

Hi everyone - yes it's coming around again this Sunday. If you've nothing else on then come along to the Red Lion and join this friendly bunch of car nuts. We start from 9.30 until the last car leaves.

Bacon butties will available as usual.

See you there?

Cheers,

Phil
