Rockbrook Vintage Show (Pictures)

I was at this today. Only saw signs for it yesterday. Anyway, wasn't really much of a turnout but there was a few impressive cars there nevertheless. I took a few pictures, all of them are here:

I assume you're talking about this one:



Not sure what the story was with it. They're a load of military vehicles there but I only got a few pictures as my batteries ran out.

Great pictures and reporting Max Damage. The Cadillac's a V12 in fact. It's an amazing car.

God Max I'd have considered that 131 to be showroom condition!
You must be unfamiliar with those Fiats

Well, there was patches on the side of the car that looked like it was painted with Tipp-Ex and the wheel arches are starting to crumble!

Good ol' Soviet steel!

yeah I went up for a while too, very chilly indeed !

I dunno what the story was with the weather up there, the rest of Dublin was sunny and warm, if a little windy.

Even though the turnout was poor, there were several other events on yesterday, I though it was interesting since I spent a bit more time looking at what WAS there instead of skimming over a huge volume of cars like I usually do !

He'll have no arches soon enough if he doesn't do something about it, or puts it into a garage.
