The SWETTENHAM ARMS evening car meet!

[@davidconnell1321]

Great video Harley, glad you liked my Standard 10.

[@CarTractionvids]

How could I not?!

[@Vince_uk]

Well Harley for me without doubt this is your best video to date. A confident and knowledgeable commentary, and terrific opening sequence with a cool soundtrack. I want that Lamborghini, 400 GT, absolute class. 11 Lamborghini is some serious money especially a Miura. I have always liked the 944, I have owned a 924 in the far flung distant past. I haven't watched OCC yet so you're first.

[@CarTractionvids]

Yes he hasn't put his video of this meet live yet, the 400GT was one it my favourite cars I'd seen in a long time

[@Charstring]

Some fantastic motors there.

[@RobertGott-c3f]

Great show Harley😊😊😊 Love the Allard sports❤what a top collection as always Thanks for tour😊😊😮

[@CarTractionvids]

Thanks for watching!

[@davidarter9670]

Gee, I enjoyed that, thankyou. I can see myself perambulating around in my V8 250 Daimler to those car meets.

[@Squirel]

Wow!! That Lotus Elise was really something - you certainly wouldn't want to drive too close to that one. Thar Daimler was gorgeous and the E Type Jag was just stunning. Class and power in one very tidy package. But I think I would have been happy to take home one of the many Minis. I still miss my 1982 Mini 1000. Oh, and while your evenings are drawing in, our daylight saving started last night. 😅 I think you'll find that a lot of large American cars had those rear facing pin lights. They were so the driver could see the extent of the (vast) bonnet when manoeuvring in the dark. And finally, I had a Honda Beat, but mine was a 50cc 2 stroke motor scooter lol.

Great to see you back in harness and presume you have been hopefully deep in study as it is, I guess, a critical time for you academically. Whatever, I loved the video which displayed all your ever-growing confidence and expert knowledge for all things classic cars. Well done. I agree with your view on Dad's XJ8. It could well be a future classic it's youth currently does not allow it to be have such a moniker. But I am glad that the incredible amount of complicated fettling he has done to try and get the beast to be more reliable has been extremely brave and praise worthy is so far paying off. Well done to you as well as you draw ever nearer having your own classic jam jar! Rob

[@hooser-u8k]

The new Porsche V7 looking good

[@MichaelCondron-x8n]

Great video Harley one of the best your knowledge is amazing, I liked the rover p6 always wanted one but wasn't a very reliable car in Australia cheers

[@richardholland1116]

Great mixture of cars. I'll definitely try and get out to one next year. Great video 👍🏻

[@reviewercls]

That's my bmw z3 I did get lots of fun but when fitting the new roof the guy told me that it only has 1mm to stretch 😢 I then sold the z3 ready for the winter for £1000 so £50 profit and now have a cls320 it will be showing up to the meets this year . Ps the roof of the z3 has now caved in due to the guy who I partex the car with not listening and it shrunk due to having snow on it 🙄 great vid

[@thepansthisthatandtheother7766]

Thoroughly enjoyable! Enjoyed your other video from Tern Hill. Needless to say, have subscribed. Loved all the Alfa Romeos. I doubt though that their boots leak like my old one did and rusted 24/7.

[@CarTractionvids]

Thanks for the sub!

[@Carl-x8y3c]

Hello 👋 Harley. That Lamborghini is just stunning. I was thinking , and you might think it's funny for me to say this , but it's similar in design and shape to the Ford Consul Capri. What do you think ?. The Consul is a good looking sporty car. The Volkswagon Beetle is fantastic. Very smart indeed with the yellow fog lamps. The Ford Popular takes me back to the 1960s and Stockcar racing here in NZ. Some of the cars had Ford Popular and Prefect body shells over their roll cages. I like the pea green coloured Hillman Imp. A question , not related to cars though. What pop music musicians do you like ?. I like all genres of music myself and own a large collection. Very good car display Harley. 👌 Thanks from Carl.

Hi Harley The strip of metal on the front of the Allard Race Car is called a “Burt Strut” after a famous lady hillclimber Patsy Burt It put a piece of metal at the front of the car as the point of measurement at the start and finish of a climb to minimise discrepancies. Best wishes Alan

Turn signal lamps for driver on the Thunderbird fenders/ wings.

[@kellybrickey4300]

The Thunderbird has telltale lamps for the turn signals on the fenders (wings), for the driver. They were far more common on Mopar cars. Even my moms Omni/Horizons had them. They seem gimmicky but you never leave your signal on...

[@CarTractionvids]

Ah thanks, I quite liked the look of them

[@Birashanuman]

At the risk of contradiction by an Allard aficionado , I would venture that the bare aluminium bodywork of the ' J2' is sitting on the tubular chassis frame of what was once one of those large somewhat ungainly saloons known as P1's or P2's . I suspect it is not ,as you suggest, 'a period race car '. Whilst certainly not a 'pastiche' , I believe it to be a recreation on pukka underpinnings:

[@Markus-vp8pz]

Hello Harley great video again mate. The E type was stunning!! You say you have an Instagram account?

[@CarTractionvids]
