1938 Plymouth P6 - CAS 607

York Historic Vehicle Group Rally 2010

This is another local show that I like to try and attend if I can.

It is organised by the York Historic Vehicle Group (YHVG), which was formed to bring together people who were interested in old road vehicles: ranging from motorcycles to cars, lorries and buses.

Shortly after the establishment of the club, a rally was held on the York Racecourse, off Knavesmire Road, and this event has been held…  (read more)

Off and running now with another album, this time showcasing some of the photos I took at the Yorkshire Vehicle Group Rally back in 2010. First out, this beautiful Plymouth.

There are times when you just want to be left alone!

Well, it's a 1965 Caddy, but other than that I've no idea. Hopefully, someone out there can help and maybe even tell me what's with the straps coming off the front bumper?

The Standard Motor Company was founded in Coventry, England in 1903 with the Standard name last used in Britain in 1963, and in India in 1987. As best I can tell this is a Standard 10 or at least that's what the badge on the bonnet said. However, I've also seen them described as a Super Ten though I've been unable to find out what the difference, if any, actually is.

As you can see this V6 powered Panther was parked up next to the Cadillac from earlier. Given the similarity in the maroon paint I'd not be surprised to find out they're from the same household.

I love the Opel Manta and this is the engine bay of one of the best I've seen in this area. I took two angles and couldn't decide which I liked best so I've uploaded them both. See the photo in notes for a reminder of how this beauty looks overall.

On the subject of red car engine bays, might as well throw this old Mk1 Cortina into the mix.

Always makes me smile when I see one of these as back in the Eighties my girlfriend's Dad (now my father-in-law) had one of these.

This is another that I've seen a couple of times. It's always nicely turned out and well presented ... see notes in the above photo for a shot of it with the top down.

Could be the little chap from the book stall minus his tag and with a different coat. See note for previous image.

Always had a thing about the Amazon, especially the 2-door models like this one. Probably because they make me think of the Rover P5, which is another of my favourite old cars.

Externally this Minor was quite stunning, thanks mainly to the shade of red they'd opted for. I liked the interior trimming too, but just felt the carpets let it down a little. Shame, because otherwise it was a gem!

Yet more US detailing for you. Like the Caddy, this Bel Air is another 'regular' at the shows I attend.

Don't get me wrong, the car was nice, but it was really the bumper sticker and the quadruple exhaust that caught my eye!
