I was born in 1961 at the Royal Hospital for Women in Paddington in Sydney. My first ride coming home from the hospital and my first ride in a car was a Morris low headlight car just like this maroon one. I don’t remember the event but I’ve been in love with cars ever since. What a beautiful car!

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Indeed, funnily enough its former owner in Oz happened across and watched this video by chance, and spotted his car now here in the UK having not heard anything of it in years.

[@davidarter6271]

@@oldclassiccarUK Really! Goodness it’s a small world. I trust the former owner was delighted to see his old car stroll being loved today.

A beautiful presentation. Thank you Richard.

Thanks Nev!

Morning Richard . Well that was a show and a half ! Almost too much to see in one day . Who can't admire the time, money and work it takes to prepare the magnificent traction engines and steam lorries and the commercial vehicles of yesterday .lt must take hundreds of hours to bring these workhorses back to life . The shear variety of the farm machinery proved how every maker thought they had the best to offer . But for me the most impressive vehicles were the military varients and the sheer size of some . This must be a weekend gathering Richard as the organisation must take months to organise . Thankyou

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Hi John, yes it's at least two days (possibly three) and set up I'm sure begins days in advance on site.

[@ChristopherHartwell-dq2ru]

This has to be one of the most interesting videos that you have produced, with such a diverse range of military, steam, trucks, commercials and motorcars it was automotive overload. i liked the green Austin ute, and the Citroen big 15 (Familiale ?) also the grey coloured steam poweredtraction engine. It will be hard to top this show, thanks for your time and efforts.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks for your kind words!

[@RobertGott-c3f]

Great video and show 😮😊 Excellent to see all the British vintage motors And the auto jumble Thanks for the tour😊😊😮😮

[@oldclassiccarUK]

No problem 👍

[@larrytucker2938]

Glad to have joined you on this day. Everything was nice, my favorites were the tiny steam roller; 41 Packard ambulance; red Mack. Thanks , reminded me of my wheels gone by.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks for watching, yes it was a fun day (and a lot of legwork!)

[@stefantrnacek1394]

WOW, what a totally amazing and awesome event. There is something for everybody. I would be in heaven. Thank you for this and all the great work that you do.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

My pleasure

[@lanceleader8891]

Brilliant. Thank you for a great video. So nice to see the older vehicles.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks Lance, yes great to see quite a selection of real oldies at this one (I wonder if they have a date cut-off for exhibitors?)

[@mervynprice7009]

Very enjoyable, lots more to see at this rally than normal. What I assume is a V12 Phantom RR was particularly nice. Many thanks to its owner for bringing it along. The early post-war & pre-war Austin's were particularly nice to see in such numbers. My Father worked at Longbridge during the war & for a short time afterwards in management. My eldest brother suffered from Asthma, so we moved round the country to find somewhere to live in order to get him home. So cars from the pre-war & post-war periods are the cars I grew up surrounded by. The best vehicle in the show? All of them, is my answer. My congratulations to the presenter for doing an excellent job, covering so many wonderful vehicles with as much equal fairness as he managed.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks Mervyn, I had a fun day walking and talking at this one

[@davidarter6271]

A wonderful presentation, Richard. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. Thankyou, Sir.

The TT flatbed is a beautiful example. Great to see

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks, yes there were some great early vehicles at this one

[@Carl-x8y3c]

Great car show. I like the Citroen DS. Very nice in the green colour. There is an Australian guy on youtube and he has his channel. He was out in the countryside and there was some old cars rusting in a field. So on closer inspection of them , one was a Citroen ID. He called it a coakroach. He said thats what there design looks like. He also stated that he'd driven one. And it was very different. He didnt like them.

[@Carl-x8y3c]

I meant to write 🪳 cockroach .

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks, yep it was a really good event, we'll go again sometime I'm sure

[@christophercharles3467]

Hi Richard, I got quite a surprise when I saw the maroon low light Minor because I live in South Australia and I used to own the car. I will email you more info. Cheers, Steve

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Wow small world eh!!!

[@allanriches9381]

What a stunner that Lo light MM is. Great showing of the light commercial vehicles as well. Another awesome video

[@oldclassiccarUK]

First rate video again RJ, I couldn't find time to watch it until today, Monday. I like to watch them in one go. Harley is a growing lad and needs 2 pasties 😃

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Yes he's a two-pastie fella now, getting expensive to have him around :)

[@OldspeedJDM]

Love the long videos! Great job. 🎉

Thanks, you'll like today's upload then :-)

@@oldclassiccarUK oh yes Rustival is awesome! 👍 I hope it’ll be featured in the good ol’ U.S.A. annually sometime in the future. All ready pitched it to Ian and Matt lol

[@andyjones5701]

Wonderful again! We've never been to this show, might try it next year, same weekend as Capesthorne Hall so would be on the Saturday.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks, yes a good "do" indeed, hopefully we won't leave it another 14 years before re-visiting it :)

[@NickSampson-s1r]

Excellent video as always,I am very good at identifying old vehicles,but your knowledge is fantastic,the milk float featured is a Morrison chassis with M&M bodywork I think.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks for checking it out!!

Hi great Vid

Thanks Brian

[@jontaylor1652]

My vehicle of the day is one of the buses but it's impossible for me to narrow it down beyond that.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Yep the single-deckers were a real fave of mine too, as you may have noticed :)

[@spannerworks1]

Hi Richard Great video as always - can I be a bit picky - you passed one the VW type 2 bay which was a pickup - at the start of your video - what when this was a unusual one as not many around now or are you anti - german machines. Warm regards Richard

[@oldclassiccarUK]

I'm in no way anti-German vehicles, having owned quite a few, but I can't always focus on every vehicle that attends. If you've seen the recent upload I did about the Grocott private collection of commercial vehicles, you'll see me wax lyrical about how impressed I was with the restoration of the VW pickup they have on display. Thanks.
