Culzean Autoclassica

Post by bmcecosse »

Anyone going to the new event at Culzean this week-end ?
Weather fcast for sunday is 'not good' - but saturday looks to be not too bad at the moment. If fair - I will probably go on saturday - unless fcast changes dramatiaclly - in which case sunday!

Something involving wicker, or was that just the film they made there?

If it does involve wicker then you need to recruit Jack Dee - oh deary me never has a human being had less tolerance for wicker and crafty things :lol:

It was indeed a great show - I was in the Home Farm Courtyard - the Clubs area seemed a bit too far away! Next year they are hoping to make it THE Premier Event in Scotland - and moving it forward to 23/24 August. An excellent event, not to be missed - if the weather is good, as it was yesterday.

Well done Mark -where did you find the video? I could argue for a tiny glimpse of my TR7 - but someone is standing in front of it - no doubt admiring it's great beauty - or more likely marvelling at it's survival against the demon of rust!! I did walk round all the Club cars - twice - but you were all hiding inside your tent so I didn't disturb!

done the video when we came back from the show .
check out the rest of our videos .
will need to have a look back and see if the TR7 was caught on tape
as i saw your car (was not sure it was yours at the time) but not you (poss you where down at the morris looking for me ) any ways some nice cars on show .

you certainly got the best standing as a lot of joe public never seen the club cars (not knowing they where down in the car park ),

was told we all should have been it the field but the rain had made it to wet
so every one got scattered around the park .
see how we do next year.
is that the last show for you this year ?????
its our (mmoc scottish branch ) AGM this sunday .
so thats us by till may next year ..

come on the winter project .

Well done with the video - but if it's yours - why no Minors ?? If you have any more interesting footage would be happy to see it. I don't think there are any more shows this year - are there ? Yes the Deer Park was a bit out of the way - but I agree the 'field' would have been very wet underfoot and the hard-standing was much better for all. Are you considering a 'Minor' soapbox for next year ?? Good strong wheels would appear to be the top priority.

Am I the only person that thinks it looks messy when people prop boards up against their cars?
The van in particular looked like it was parked behind a small fence.
:roll:

No doubt it looks beautiful in the photo.

But, it would look much nicer if I could see the shiney front too. :D
Hence my moan about 'messy boards'.
