I didn't take a huge number of photo's this year but here are some observations on some of the cars.
It's great to see all the individaulity and creative subtle changes people make to this cars.

The first was the very cool light blue car that I had not seen before ...
(unfortunately I didn't get a picture of the engine but was very impressive)





Lack of windscreen wipers, etc add to the cool lines of this car.



Interesting colour coded dashboard. Grab handle on dashboard and door pulls are nice additions.

Round bullet style rear lights mounted vertically. Centrally mounted number plate light will be a good cure for the number plate issue for the IVA.
reflectors mounted under rear wings.

Matt black painted grill, headlight stone protectors, chrome plated wishbones and high intensity LED side lights mounted under the front wings all added to this cars individuality.


This builder is adding some form of hard top.

Vertically mounted hamburger lights. Modified bumper bars and TR6 silencers?? Did this car have a Rover V8 engine??
Badge bar is an unusual fitting on a Sportster


Not sure which car this was but the owner has obviously suffered wih the 'loose wing stay' problem.


Nice traditional dash and mot-lita steering wheel. Colour coded roll bar, seats,trim and sun shield are nice touches.



....and finally.........

Dazzling paintwork on this hot rod!
