A couple of photos.
I would also like to say thank you to Richard for organising this, the owners of the cars Darren, Richard and Andy, and everyone I spent time with on the stand.

Here are a few pics that I took during the show:
Andy’s series 1 Lotus Gild Elite in the foreground with Darren’s ice blue Eclat Excel narrowbody:
Richard Gosling’s dark blue Excel SE in the foreground:
A little bit of restoration show activity with Stu and Andy:
The Lotus showroom stands donated by Roddy Michael:
Tony capturing more information for the register:
A huge thank you to everyone who brought cars and helped on the stand, to all who bought calendars, and to the visitors we met.
Cheers, Richard

Damn it! Forgot completely about the calendar!! Great to see the stand on Saturday, albeit briefly . As usual it was hard to do the whole show in a single day.

Great stand and show team. Thanks Richard for driving the organisation and great to have so many people drop by, many of whom seem to own a long off the road wedge. Hopefully the great cars on show will drive their enthusiasm to get even more GT's back on the road.

Yes, thanks Richard for taking the lead and everyone else who pitched in and / or visited. I'm pleased to report our autojumble find glossy Triumph Stag doner window switch integrated successfully with the rear section of the dull one that tended to stick in my Elite to form a fully functioning one with a finish to match all the other switches perfectly well. Drove back to Kent yesterday in style! dropped by to visit the previous long-term owner on route updating him on recent our Belgium trip and NEC, where from a random photo of our stand I'd taken he spotted a Ginetta g15 he also once owned across the walkway. Small world.
