Reader Gary Swift and his son went to the Aveton Gifford Classic Car Show, Devon, England, last weekend. Gary’s son entered his blue Austin Mini, which they say was parked next to a lovely Ford Corsair. The event was a short drive from where Gary lives, and he sent in a great series of pictures as a report from the event. According to the event organizers, despite some overnight rain and a mad dash in the morning to lay straw over the entrance they had a great show with over 1,000 people attending and 100+ classic cars and tractors on display together with a show of classic motorbikes next to the village hall.
Sounds and looks like a fun event!
Thanks to Gary for sending in the report, and we hope to have a report from him, and his son, on their journey to the Castle Combe Mini Action Day in a couple of weeks. And remember, we always love to see your show reports and pass them along!
