thats what you get for not reading things properly!

well i bundled the kids and the missus into the mav and off we went with sat nav in hand.
i never even thought that there was more than one fort at tilbury.
i programmed in tilbury fort into the sat nav and within 35 mins we were in tilbury, we had a nice pimped sit up and beg behind us following us so obviously we were on the right tracks!
anyway we turned off into the fort and the sit up and beg carried straight on.
strange i thought, but we got to the fort to find no car show.
i spun the old girl round and chased after the old pimped ford!!!
we got around 2 miles down the road when i saw this ford coming back towards me, i flagged him down and asked where the car show was, he replied that he didnt know of a car show and was just out to burn some fuel and test drive his car after doing some mods!!
anyway, i thought me being me got the wrong weekend, so we went back to tilbury fort and had a good day there. we got chatting to the caretaker there and what a nice guy he was.
i would recommend a day there if you get bored one day.

errr dont think so lol

 

[tezzer]

well i saw them so did the missus, must have been another show, there was stewards waving the classic's into town square, via westgate entrance.

while waiting at lights we saw, mk2 zodiac convertable, several yanks, 100e,
105e anglia, riley,

just found out that basildon council is celebrating it's 60th year, we even had kathrin jenkins singing at lake meadows, so perhaps thats why the car show was arranged.:nenau :augie

Great pictures,Paul. Brought back memories of when I saw a lot of these cars NEW,I am getting old. Funniest thing I saw regarding a MK1 Escort was a neighbour replacing the clutch on one, he took the cushions from the sofa in his house and then he and a few mates turned the car on its side in his garden. Managed not to break anything and changed the clutch in no time:lol:lol:lol
