A few weeks ago the Queen celebrated her 90th birthday and there were party's & celebrations all round. Newbury held one in the park and part of it was a display of a car from each decade of her life
One of my favourites shown here is this Frog eyed Sprite or to give it's real name the Austin Healey
Sprite and was built around 1959
Not sure what model this was but no doubt from the 1920's
This one I do know and is a Rover 16 which was built around 1937 to 1948
The last one here is a Morris Minor, this one is a pickup and from 1969. The only sad bit I found from this show is that they never had a Classic Mini which was an Icon of the British motor industry, I find it hard to believe there was not one around to put on show. Still not a bad little display of car in the park.
Taking part in Out World Tuesday
I think that was a great idea for a show but as you say where was the mini?
ReplyDeleteNow that is a very cool way to celebrate the Queen's 90th! I think cars looked more interesting long ago.
