Hello Folks,
I attended this event with my daughter and she took pictures of the other cars for me (she did, of course, include me and my car!)
For those of you that are interested, some of her pictures can be seen via the following link
http://500px.com/iucphotography/sets
She also has a "blog" that does show some of these images (amongst all her other "projects") at
http://iucphotography.tumblr.com
Hope you like them (apparently she has "booked me in" for the Traveller Hearse!)

Very good pictures.
Is that Traveller with the brown seats on your daughter's blog painted in Tundra? Another 1970's BL colour which works very well on these cars.

Do you mean that very dark green one? I asked her to photograph some of the green ones as I'm not certain which green I've got - Almond or Empire (should be Empire for a September 1956 Series II facelift).
I'll see if the orginal shot includes the Reg number. George.

Sorry Jowett, the image doesn't show the plate. Maybe the owner or another knowledgable person will come along?

Im not 100% sure but looks to me like Army bronze green that military travellers were painted.
