Capel Classic Car & Bike Show 17th August

Post by david wright »

This was the 2nd year for our South Downs group at this show in the village of Capel in Surrey, and our modest space booked for 6 cars, was taken up by 5.
This followed the week after a major display at Cranleigh and was a much more leisurely affair!.
Appearing at this event, which combined the village Horticultural Society's Annual Show with its Classic Car Show, were Ken Cassell with his immaculate GT, Charlie and Helen Smith with their 541, Simon Keeble with his US spec. 1976 Interceptor Convertible, and the 2 C-V8s of Alan Pryce, and and Chris and I. It may be a small display, but still qualified for 2 flags flying!
With the morning to browse the stalls of both plants, crafts, and autojumble as well as cars, the day got into full swing when the public arrived at 12.00 noon. Last year over 5000 members of the public visited, and it certainly brought many enquiries after Jensens.
Come late afternoon, we were all committed to attending again next year, and maybe even more members may join us. Many thanks to Helen and Charlie, Ken and Chris, Simon and Alan and Beverly for their company and fielding questions during the day.
