 Some views of previous rallies………..

 

Glimpses of Bradford 792, Maidstone 56, Bournemouth 202 and a couple of intruders!!

 

Bradford 746 leads the line of Walsall 862, Derby 237 (Best vehicle rally prize winner) and Wolverhampton 433.

 

The N.T.A.'s Bournemouth 202 on its first real outing. The oldest running vehicle at the rally, even if it did have a roof on it when made in 1935. Today's top deck passengers just have to get wet when it rains!!

 

Schaffausen 207

 

S.Y.P.T.E.'s 2450 followed by the nose of Bradford 792

Bradford 746 - a nice little classic period vehicle but with a big motor - and it really does go!!!
