colr6 Posted December 29, 2017 Report Share Posted December 29, 2017 Got the details through for the old ford show at Gaydon. Attended this show last time exellent show and your entry get you round the museums which are very good. Camping is available, the showers are imaculate and second to none. Would be a worthwhile show to attend. 15th July at the British Motor museum. Gaydon. CV35 OBJ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they do formal stands there, it's a bit like Beaulieu's Simply days, you just park up as you arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colr6 Posted December 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2017 I can always drop an email to the event organiser to see if they can accomodate a club stand if we have enough interest. It will be in after the first week of the new year though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellow Perril 2 Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Brilliant thank Col! I'll get the diary sorted and hope to be going. I looked at the site and considered booking a to show but mines not really up to close scrutiny; nice but some stuff to tidy still... (best not annoy the judges) Hopefully I'll get things clear and booked soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mines far from perfect, im always finding bits and bobs on it, bits id wished id done better, but it was never built to be a show pony, it was built to be driven, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a great all round day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellow Perril 2 Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 Thanks for your comments Khanlad and Col. My car does get a lot of attention and admiring look but there's a few things I want to do. I'm happy to go whatever but was being a miser thinking I'll just get a show pass and save a couple of quid... (tight a..). Hopefully if work permits I'll see you both there! Many thanks, Martin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegav Posted July 13, 2018 Report Share Posted July 13, 2018 Think I'll pop along. Show off me old banger. 15 months pretty much off the seen, due to buying a basket case of a property, just for the land ( for esky ) . Going though planning permission now for a 63 sqm garage . Need time out. Hope to chat with you lads there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellow Perril 2 Posted October 4, 2018 Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 Lol. Its never too late... Long time since the show. I made it eventually but things transpired to make it a difficult day. I changed rear pads, and cleaned and eased everything about a week before the show. Set off on the beautiful sunny morning but about 15 miles in, going around a bend, the right rear chrome hub cap dismounted... I seen it in the mirror and went back, found it... It was scorching hot! Despite being free as a bird, somehow the right rear was rubbing continuously and getting very hot. I limped back to base and switched cars and eventually made it to the show. It was superb with some machines I didn't even know Ford made! Unfortunately as I had commitments associated with the world cup final, I had about a couple of hours (not enough) and had to hit the road. There wasn't enough time to track any of you down I'm afraid. I'm on a mission to have a complete change of brake setup now. Ordered discs and got to get a servo sorted (I'm too old for needing lightening reactions and legs like Geoff Capes). Hopefully all that will be sorted for next year's event (or other excursion) before hand. It was great so see such a collection of machines and some real beauties. Hopefully I'll get parked in the main area next year... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
