Classic Car,
Commercial & Steam Rallies
Selected dates for the current year
I began attending classic car and commercial shows following the purchase of my first classic car, the Daimler V8 250. You will find, on the subsequent pages, a few pictures (with or without commentary) of these shows which I hope you will find of interest. As this site has limited capacity, most of the older images have been moved to my picasaweb site.

photos & use your back button to return. If some pics fail to show, click

Due to the culture of 'over-legislation', it may be useful for entrants to shows to be aware of what you are signing when you send in an entry form. Please follow the link to the FBHVCs website which gives some advice regarding your 'terms of insurance'. Click on "Technical & Events" then "Event Entry Documentation" and scroll down the page. A sample entry form can be downloaded at the foot of the page.
