[@oldclassiccarUK]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@richardbooth4573]

The steam tractors are a nice bonus ! ❤❤❤

[@RobertBrugess-xj8fj]

Being in Canada I enjoy watching British car events on KZbin. It seems much more civilized than in North America. Nice location for this show and I really love the Dodge truck. Owning a 49 Chev pickup I guess old trucks must be in my blood. Good video, thanks.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks for watching! If you know of anyone else who might find it of interest, please pass on the link

[@peterward3965]

What a great day for a village event 👍 my three to take home, 1 the VW split screen two tone campervan with the cushions, very nice, 2, the early red Ford Capri excellent example 3, The early large fin Alpine, very cute. Nice to see it completely original including wheels. As for naming ones vehicles, stick to little Dodge and big Dodge it suits them. The royal navy truck towing the boat, the boats name was Gillian and the little boat on the flatbed of the truck was named Gill, hence little Gill and Big Gill. Don't ask me why but each vehicle I've ever owned have had nicknames. Sad git that I am 😂 Looking forward to your next video already Richard 👍

[@daviddjerassi]

WOW What a great day out thank you so much i hope you both got home safely loved that IOM Taxi keep safe .

[@jut20five]

Watched this again, better than most films these days ..2 hrs thoroughly enjoyed. I love the fact that when it rains we join you in the cab to get out of the rain. Even though I’m indoors and dry ! Excellent work.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

So glad that you liked this one!

[@peterbevan2797]

What a fantastic video Rick, such a large selection of cars,commercials,bikes, barges and steam engines! Can't pick a favourite but love the really old vehicles like the charabancs.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@objectiveobjective1948]

Hi Richard, Always enjoy your videos 👍. I think your very lucky to have a son like Harley he's such a lovely lad and a great knowledgeable classic enthusiast like yourself. Always look forward to your shows.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks, a new show visit went live this morning

[@RobertParrish-k4q]

Great Video from last year - liked the shots at the beginning, showing me arriving and turning in to the entrance in my Ford Cortina 2000 GXL - really looking forward to next weeks show, this show really is one of the highlight events every year....

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks, yep definitely one of our faves too! Thanks for watching

[@pippin1ful]

The J Type Morris van is one of my favorites.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Ours too - thanks for watching

[@stefantrnacek1394]

What a fantastic event.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Yeah we always try and get along to this one

[@kellybrickey4300]

Walt is a great name for your truck. I had a 62 Dodge d100 that I named Walter, after his previous owner, and Walter P. Chrysler.

[@colinmuddell9672]

Super video and such a friendly meet! Remarkable variety of cars, with the taxi and charabanc being the highlight for me. Despite the pre-war entries I have to choose the mustard yellow GT6 with that silky smooth straight six. The really nice dark blue Wolseley 1500 brought back memories of my dear old Grandpa who had the same model in the same dark blue. At the start of the video your Standard was looking super smart! You talk about oily-ragging the Dodge - how about a feature on you carrying out the work?

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Hi Colin yes I'll probably grab the camera when oily ragging begins. Thanks for watching

[@andydavis7254]

The green Panda is owned by one of my customers. It currently resides in the small town called Loggerheads just north of Market Drayton. It’s owner also owns a rather splendid Strawberries and Cream 2cv.

[@michaelkeen5010]

Great video thank you. 👍

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks Michael!

[@billygibbons8601]

Hello Rick. It was a nice gesture to be given the Shell Lubrication folder. And, a coincedence as well because, not a few feet from where you were standing used to be Hankelow Garage and for many years it was a Shell Filling Station. Great video as always. Billy. ;-)

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks Billy, so was the garage where the pub's car park is now?

[@billygibbons8601]

Very nearly Rick; it was a couple of houses up towards the direction of Audlem. In my lifetime it was owned by Norman Proudlove and Ted Butters although the brand changed from Shell when Mr Butters took ownership.

[@pippin1ful]

Some those 7s are Lotus, see the badge? Caterham took on the model. I bought a Lotus S2 from Caterham cars.

[@carltwidle9046]

Me again , there are many MGs at the shows. I watch other people's recordings of British car shows and there are always lots of them. The must be many MG car clubs in the UK. I liked the silver grey colored one with the red soft top. Very nice indeed. There's a British chap who lives in the same city here as me ,and he drives a lovely red MG with the black rubber bumpers.

[@barrykochverts4149]

Wait... look like your parking brake handle is missing-- so, never mind!...Ours needed new fenders, as they were banged up from acting as "curb feelers" for 30 years, and they were rusted out just above the curled edges at the bottom, so that's something to watch out for, and another place to watch is the sides of the box, just behind the cab, which rusted through-- from the inside, I believe. When I sanded down the doors, I found Worcester (Massachusetts) Power & Light decals on them, so it had an honorable history. In the States, Dodge advertised their Truck line as "Job-Rated", meaning they had a model appropriate for every need.

[@barrykochverts4149]

Admire your quick and knowledgable, stream of consciousness comments, and love your truck. We had a '41 Dodge pickup back in the mid 1970s, which was an absolute blast. Our dog loved the crank-open windshield (although the drool flew everywhere in the wind). It wasn't happy above 50 mph, so we kept mostly to two-lane roads. One bit of caution: if you forget to disengage the contracting, drum-style parking brake on the drive shaft, it may start to smoke through the floor slot, and the gas tank is but a hand or two away. I may be gilding the lilly, but my hazy memory is of a small fire breaking out (if that's possible). I did pull over and stop the smolder by throwing roadside dirt into the mechanism! They are tough, unbreakable vehicles with happy toad faces that love the countryside. Enjoy!

[@oldclassiccarUK]

I'll have to remember that!! Thanks for watching

[@richardsealey3626]

These videos are to be savoured, but I have to take a half day holiday to do so, just booked Wednesday. Can't imagine how long the editing takes though!!!!!!!

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks for sticking with the longer uploads, we'll run out of shows to go to soon so it won't be forever :)

[@richardharvey6914]

Ole Billy Blue, seems fitting for an old Ram

[@giulianomarco]

Favourites: #1 Ford Model T Pickup 36:24 1:41:10, #2 Morris Cowley(s) 38:42 1:49:58, #3 Austin Lichfield 54:52 1:28:26 and #4 BSA 50:24 1:36:55 😁👍

I suggest Dowager for its name. It is a Dowge Dowager.

[@Vince_uk]

An OCC video longer than a Hollywood epic I had to watch with a couple of pauses and I haven't checked if Harley as uploaded one today yet so that is a chunk of Sunday morning taken up if he has. That looks a great day out and an excellent meet and road run and somewhere I would like to get to next year. I do remember the last video you did and the very friendly appreciation shown by everyone who was watching parade go by. Definitely one for my bucket list. The cars speak for themselves. The guy who looks after my Mercs races Caterhams as a hobby. I had a P 1975 MK3 Cortina 2000E which I loved . Silver with blue velour interior, black vinyl roof with sunroof and all the wood. My first car as I have said before i believe was an MG1100. HJ could do a lot worse than getting an MG 1100 or 1300.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks Vince, yes it has a very pleasant atmosphere this one so we try never to miss it

[@alannalangdon]

Great picture of me driving the blue Frog-Eyed Sprite, any chance you could email me a copy of the photo?

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Hi, if you can drop me an email to [e-mail] I'll send it over

[@colinmuddell9672]

Talking of naming cars, my Dad called his 1934 Singer 9 Sports Coupe 'loo-loo' for some reason better known to himself! He had other less complimentary names when struggling to remove the cylinder head that 'failed to proceed'...................

[@richardbooth4573]

Gonna miss the Standard. Was Raining here in Md. Oddly even a Tornado . what year Dodge Pickup truck is that ? Its very nice. all original. Wow ! ❤❤❤

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Our pickup is from 1947, quite a late one as this model first came out in 1939.

[@mervynprice7009]

Thank you yet again for another fascinating Video. You posed a question about the P3 Rover & its metal Disc Wheels. So As I have a distinct interest in the Rover 12 I looked things up. The Disc Wheels were first offered as an option in 1939. Making you almost correct. It would be very unlikely to come across a P2 Rover with Disc Metal Wheels that is Pre-War. The P2 was in production from 1937 till 1948 & superseded by the P3. They both exist in Saloon & Sportsman body type, with a handful of soft top ones. The two models are more different than they look. The P3 being 1/2" wider on the outside & 2 1/2" on the inside. The P3 wheelbase is 4 1/2" shorter with only a half length chassis. The rear suspension being supported buy the body & it has independent front suspension. Also, different L head engines in just two capacities. A 4 cylinder of 1.6Lt & a six Cylinder of 2Lt. giving the 60 & 75. The P2 was Rover, 10, 12, 14, 16 & 20, all overhead valve units. I know my Fathers 12 Sportsman Saloon was the first one made with the wheel sat inside the boot lid. Hence, my interest in these cars. I was watching another Video about A40 Farina's by a member of the A40 Farina Club. It appears that very few Farina's are left. a small % of the A30/A35's. This is clearly why you are seeing so few this year.

[@carltwidle9046]

Hi 👋 I like your Dodge truck. It has good character. I like Walter that sounds very American for a name. Maybe you could call it Yankee. You eating a bagel, i first tried them in America when i holidayed there in the 1980s. We are still in winter here in New Zealand. It hasn't been too bad , very dry. Your Standard 8 is a good example , i think i have told you that my grandfather owned one in the early sixties, i think it was a Standard 10 though , but in the same shape. It was a 1950s model. Great show of cars as usual thanks.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Thanks for watching!

[@robertwhite361]

May be worth mentioning that KZbin has removed the subscription setting from some channels I watch and I have had to reset this for OCC. Also I always name cars...Milly the Minor, Suzy Saab and Heidi the Audi TT. How about Dixie the Dodge for your pick up?

[@oldclassiccarUK]

I've heard of people experiencing this, thanks for letting me know. Still not sold on naming cars here!

[@richardbooth4573]

Bond drove a 1927 supercharged Bently with an overdrive which he crashed in the second book which is why he drove the prototype Aston Martin which actually belonged to the English government. He got pretty chewed out for crashing that car also.

[@richardbooth4573]

Back in the 60s in The Advendures series. Steed drove a Bently. Mrs Emma Peal drove a Lotus Elan . For a brief time i worked for the mechanic of that car.

[@timsgaf]

Hank. also slang for ghost.

[@richardbentley8227]

You kept on mentioning the Gilburn, Ginetta..G... Ginetta is a totally independent company and nothing to do with Gilbern.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Do I? I know they're different companies, the latter was built in Wales etc. Thanks for watching.

[@ray-wm7yd]

JCV first issued Jan 1947

[@Robin-bj8yw]

Renault 21 ❤🎉❤

[@mervynprice7009]

You always ask which would I go home in. Well I am going to cheat a little. With the Jowett Pick up & have that very nice Rudge, with a sheet of extra thick WPB & suitable straps, should load on the back.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Agreed I was wondering how heavy the Rudge might be too :-)

[@mervynprice7009]

@@oldclassiccarUK I know how heavy the Rudge is. I do not know how long the bed is in the back of the Bradford. Nor how strong the old board will be. The Bike will be around 350lbs.

[@epj900]

I have a suggestion, stop wetting it, it's already rusty, why accelerate the process by wetting it?

[@oldclassiccarUK]

It gets about 1 rinse down every 6-8 months, I don't think it'll harm it

[@Bond2025]

Can you try to get out of the habit of putting your hand and fingers over the camera lens? Get a selfie stick to hold the camera further away if that helps. A lot of youtube people started doing this recently, all covering the lens and blocking what the camera is seeing. It just makes it look unprofessional and we expect better! The frame rate is not too good either, youtube doesn't deal with it very well. It might help if you can watch the video before uploading and it will give a chance to correct the errors.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

I'm sorry that it didn't come up to your professional expectations. However at no time do I describe myself as a professional videographer. I am merely an amateur car enthusiast walking around with a camera, so perhaps a little context might help when preparing to watch any upload on YT, not just my own.

[@RogerWarren-ec2ql]

Jaguer.ruined.bmc.in.the.1960s.australia😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

[@oldclassiccarUK]

BMC/BL did a pretty good job of ruining Jaguar too over here

[@nicholasroberts6954]

Blimey an MG for sale that had had a service which included a change of gearbox oil . . . . Somebody show the boards of VW/Skoda. . . Some marketing cult de-programming on the so-called "Sealed-for-life" gearboxes required. Main dealer still won't change the gearbox oil on my 20 yeat old Fabia . .care of fear and loathing promoted by Milton Keynes. So I'll have to go to to any indy to get it done . . .ridiculous. So VW/Skoda are not interested in promoting historic vehicles

[@richardsealey3626]

You obviously have never been to the Wolfsburg Autostadt. My VW dealer has changed the gearbox oil in my VW's many times.................

[@Bond2025]

*VOTED DOWN* unable to watch this one as you completely ruined it by constantly putting your hands in front of the camera and blocking what you were trying to film. Absolute disaster of a video this one compared to the others. Let's hope you improve and stop doing this.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

In all the years I have watched uploads on YT, at no time have I thought it necessary to disrupt a channel's success by clicking the down button. I simply click away and watch something else. Useful feedback is however welcomed, yes even negative so long as it is posted in a constructive manner. As you are likely to be disappointed in a great many of my uploads, and I cannot risk multiple down votes which is a big deal when it comes to the YT algorithm and how it ranks videos and channels, I think it best that you no longer watch any of my £free-to-view uploads as clearly (ref your other comment) I cannot achieve the top-level professional output that you require.
