Thought I'd better share these photos of one of the UK's best shows for classic American cars.

This show was at Knebworth House in Hertfordshire - a very nice location. The show concentrates mainly on older, pre '59 American classics, but there were plenty of later ones too. This is also the show where I first set eyes on my '92 Bonneville SSEi, sat there at the back of the show field with a 'For sale' sign in the window. I had a good look round it, not really intending to buy it, as I didn't feel it was the right time to buy another car, but I took down the guy's number anyway. Yet somehow, a week later it was mine.
