Thanks for letting me join in the fun this year!

I really didn’t want it to end.

Special mention to Paul, Christopher and Peter for all their hard work.

The stand and cars looked superb and we had a lot of kind words and interests.

I was in two minds with what to do about DEH as it’s been such a pita! But I’ve decided now to keep it and carry on improving the small imperfections as it’s too special a car to part with.

See you all next year.

Great show, our cars and our team did themselves Proud and it was good to put some faces to the names ! glad I spent 2 days there as there was just so much to see , some of the cars I'd never heard of, let alone seen !
But my abiding memory will be the 2 minutes silence on Armistice day , you could have heard a pin drop, I found it a very humbling and emotional experience .

Haven't been for a couple of years now, due to other duties, but the silence on the 11th has always been total. Absolutely magnificent.

Visited the club stand yesterday and was pleased to meet the flying banana and Reebs. Loved the orange grove tourer. I spent two days at the show and still didn't see everything. I had a great time and will be back next year.

My son Robert and I thank for their time and effort putting the stand together and hosting the public and members alike. Thanks to Pete, Bob and rest of crew for allowing us two to join them Friday night at their hotel for evening meal. It was really enjoyable

Nice to meet a couple of you guys on the stand when I popped over-interesting to look around the restored white car and see the history behind it! Also nice to find out the build data behind my launch car, so thanks

Nice to see that OVP’s made it to to the show. That reg R800 MCS would have originated up here in Ayrshire.

As per the title, a short video of the Club stand at the 2018 NEC Classic Car Show. The video quality is a little "soft", so is probably best viewed in a small window rather than full screen.
