The Chearsley Classic Car Show is held at the village cricket ground and the vehicles are arranged around the cricket pitch which provides a good display with good access for the public. |

During the restoration the mechanical parts, bodywork and interior have all been restored to as close to original as possible, and doesn't it look lovely. |

A quick look across the show from standing in front of my bus. This great show attracts classic vehicles of all makes and all years which makes a great variety and a fantastic show. |

There were plenty of classic motorcycles at the show from old British classics to more rarer European bikes. |

This scooter looked like something from the cult film 'Quadrophenia'. This old scooter looked awesome with all it's custom accessories and custom one off paint job. |

The car has a 1.2 litre engine with a 4 speed manual gearbox. The car had a top speed of 75 mph and a 0-60 time of about 25 seconds. |

Pure British 1950's interior. Grey vinyl and red carpet with matching dashboard, it actually looks really nice. |

This stunning Morris MCV 10 cwt van ( I think) looked fantastic, these van were made from 1950 - 1956 but I bet they never looked this good. |

This fully restored van was just like new, and the attention to detail was incredible. The body was so straight and the beige paint complimented the perfect body panels. |

Inside the 10cwt van, you got a huge120 cubic feet storage capacity, providing you took the passenger seat out! |

The small 1500cc engine (i think) looked some- what lost in the engine bay. |

These E-Types came with either a 3.8 litre or 4.2 litre engine which both gave 265 BHP and both engines produced the same top speed of 150 MPH, but the 4.2 litre engine created much more torque. |

Automotive styling really doesn't get any better than the E-Type Jaguar. Prices for these Jag's range from £40,000 - £200,000 ($49,000 - 245,000) but it's easy to see why they are so pricey. |

The interior of a restored E-Type Jaguar. What a lovely place to sit, looking down that long bonnet as you cruise around. |

Even though I managed to get the plane in the frame, it's still blurred. The Spitfire is still so nimble and agile it was difficult for me to get a decent picture. |

This lovely 1973 late bay Dormobile arrived a bit later in the day. It was owned by a lovely couple that have big plans for their bus. |
![]() |
Even though their bus wasn't finished or to their liking they were more than happy to just get out and about and use it as much as possible. |

Another Dormobile at the show was this 1970 model. This one belonged to a fellow Outcast VW member who popped over to the show, later in the day. |
