This show is coming up next month
I missed it last year, due to working, but was there in 2021 (25 images)

The location is, essentially between the A61 (Wakefield - Barnsley section) & A638 (Wakefield - Doncaster road)

Ooh!!, either of the Series 1's please!
The 80's running on Firestone SAT tyres, once the tyre of choice, & still damned good (if noisy)

The (series 3) Jaguar E-Type appears to have crashed into a greenhouse, with that raised roof (to fit fat Americans into it)

That was a car that had terrible indignities imposed on it as it aged.

A woody Moggie, the wider wheels suggesting some mechanical updating.

And a TR6 in a field.

I saw part of the 'Salvage Hunters does Classic Cars' programme last night, & they had a Morris 1000 Traveller, that had replacement wheels (like those), Weller made them to order!!!
Plus, a signwriter filled in all the panels, between the wooden frame with 'freehand' wicker, all painted!!
It looked good
I have no idea on what mechanicals were changed

One of the local fitted kitchen company owners had (possibly still has?) a yellow TR6

Just found this key, whilst looking for a spare padlock key

It was (of all things!) the ‘valet parking’ key for our old XKR!
I can only assume that an embedded chip minimised performance?
Or were they cut slightly differently?
