Brits on the Beach 2010

Postby FI Spyder » 24 Jul 2010 17:58

We had a successful Brits on the Beach in Ladysmith with perfect weather and over 208 cars and 18 bikes (people come and leave when they want so difficult to get a count). Links below are slideshow to a few photos and second link is to slide show to Industrial Truck Show the previous day at our new fair grounds in Duncan for those who are interested in such things.

Love the delivery van in the middle of the last shot.

Can anyone tell me what it is?

Sorry don't know, didn't make a note of what it was. The old truck to it's right is an Oldsmobile. I didn't know they made trucks. There was also a Studebaker truck, didn't know they made trucks.

Looks like a DIVCO Milk Truck about 1939 I have seen some really nice hot rods made from these.

Weather was perfect not too hot with slight breeze coming off the Salish Sea (as it is officially now known). 208+ cars, five wedges with Ron's Buick V-6 and I think only the one (blue) TR8. The pictures were taken in the morning and by noon we were getting pretty full. I think the park (it's a dog park) could handle about 250 cars without crowding. We picked up 14 new members to bring our year to date total to 119 members. When I joined in 2003 there was about 45. Lots of people who own British cars still haven't heard about club. This was the 11th year of Brits on the Beach.
