NSRA - Old Warden Park 23-25th July [Sunday]

[Andy]

Anyone going?

Guv'nor just emailed me the link and it looks like a good show, will be on for photographers at least. Anybody from here going along. I think it's all still conformist stuff, nothing younger than 1972 but some of those hot rods etc, are worth a punt.

The price for the weekend to non-members is £45 and thats the gate price for Saturday too!

Sunday when they allow us newbies in is a reasonable £8

Hmm possibly.  It is a good show

[Roadkill]

Fantastic show.

Alas, need to be saving my pennies so won't be . . .

[HardRockCamaro]

I only do Saturdays and 1980 and newer...

It'll be the Caddy's final outting for a year or so, so i'm considering going . . . plus I haven't done a show this year, yet, and probably won't do another in a hurry.

[Andy]

We're going so long as the weathers nice and I guess we'll be leaving the Camaro in the car park.

Nope.

Could do with saving the cash.

The Caddy will just have to go away quietly.

[Andy]

Awesome awesome show! Awesome, Roadhouse etc...

Weather was looking a lil dodgy on the way there, but my god did it turn out nice.

Filled the show field and ended up parking motors up behind the traders as there were so many. Only £8, an absolute bargin for what it is.

Didn't take many photos, made a newbie mistake of thinking I had charged up my batteries...

Pics to follow shortly

[Andy]

Photos...

[Andy]

Just to add, both the 2nd Gen and 1st gen Camaro's were running +500Ci and both with efi by the looks of it.

The RS was my car of the show. But then I'm into the 'modern' stuff by their standards!

[ianjpage]

very nice pics - looks a good show

[Rocky]

Havnt seen that 2nd gen in years looks like a good turn out.

[Andy]

Rocky, whats the deal with that setup on the 2nd gen, are they individual throttle bodies? Was looking around it and couldn't work out exactly what was going on.

Both of them were very nice. The 1st gen was so perfect, it was just beautiful. The guy/girl must've been a machinist or know someone, as the bonnet linkage and arms were all CNC'd billet, as well as all the alternator brakets and pulleys. Really nice to see where some people put in so much effort, and the idea of sticking a modern engine in a classic...

[Rocky]

The 2nd gen was in a mag quite a few years ago will try and dig it out.
Looks like the first gen is sporting Ring Brothers hood hinges or similar.
Im wanting to do that for the 3rd gens but need to get someone to CNC the bits up.

[Motorama]

was speaking to the owner of the 1st Gen at the KK donut meet a couple of months ago. There's over £60k in that car

Not surprised, it was just perfect, totally worth it in my opinion if thats the quality you get!
