Great video. I didn't realise the rally was taking place, or I would have been there. I'm a big fan of the A30/35 and live near Chesterfield, so it would have been ideal. I hope you enjoyed your stay.
I have an Austin A30 four door which seem to be rare whenever i see films of a shows there are generally only two or three examples, i know the two door was more popular at the time and three times as many of these were sold. I have had mine for eight years and it has had a complete mechanical restoration, the interior is original and last bodywork in 1991, I love it and is always much admired.
Fred Dibnah was one of a kind. His language not offensive, just basic. He said things as he saw them in my opinion. A really great guy and very courageous. Would you climb the chimneys he climbed. I know I wouldn’t, lol. In addition, I enjoyed your video although I will try to adapt it to suit moulding 1:76 scale flexible tank tracks.
@@kevinhale9400 ohh noo, I would not climb those!! that looks very dangerous! But he also had a very cool series about the Victorian age! Would you say my language was offensive? I might be able to mute that word. Good luck with your tank threads!
hoppend 0 seconds ago I choose not to, because the parts are easier to sand this way, it would have been very hard to get rid of the 3D printer’s buildlines
Really enjoy these videos of British cars. My question is off subject. I am a big fan of Father Brown tv mysteries. There is red convertble driven by a young lady. And the brand of car, I WANT KNOW who made that car. When I was young man my dream car was an Austin Healey 3000, straight 6 cylinder, 4 speed manual. British racing grees and tan interior. I still would love to own one from tha period. But prices are really high. Back about 30 years ago I remember reading about Austin Healey two seater sports car with a V8....Was that real?
The Hobbs Automatic was completed on the friday morning, only hours before we left for the show! The 70 miles journey to and from Beverley was not without it's problems due to having no time for shakedown trials, though the unique Hobbs gearbox performed faultlessly... It's over forty years since it was last on the road...
@21.05 (PFG 59) is an early accident damaged A30 which was fitted with a factory replacement modified A35 shell to fit A30 running gear, there are very few known to the club
Thanks for a great video. I am a member of the UK A30 A35 Owners Club, however as I am from Australia I will never be able to go to any of these rallies. The large number of A30 and A35s and the huge amount of spares is mind boggling. Regards. Lou. A30 restorer.
Wow, all the way from Australia! We did have a person that made the trip to the rally one year. If memory serves, he actually won the Travel distance award, even though he did not bring his car. The rallies were at their peak in the 80’s with over 200 cars showing up. Good to hear that my video’s are even enjoyed on the other side of the world!
That was excellent ! I 'found' you by chance - you popped up in my recommended box, and now I'm subscribed ! What a great line up of Austin A30 - A35s - such happy looking cars. Glad you had a good trip, and thanks for showing us the highlights of your stay here in England. Take care, and I look forward to future postings 🙂
Thanks so much! Good that I popped up on your recommendations. I enjoy making the video’s and it is always nice to hear that they are enjoyed by others. I don’t make a lot of video’s but I am planning on some interesting ones! thanks for your subscription!
Der britische Austin A30-A35 Owners Club ist ziemlich groß und hat mehrere Regionen. Es wird jedes Jahr von einer anderen Region ausgerichtet. infolgedessen ist es jedes jahr in einem anderen teil großbritanniens, aber oft zentral. (nicht oft in schottland oder wales).
