The TERN HILL HALL classic car meet
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- I'd heard about the Tern Hill Hall classic car evening meet before but had never been, so with fine weather on the cards we pointed the MX5's nose in the direction of Tern Hill in Shropshire (just off the A41) to check out the cars.
There were plenty of classic cars and some later sporty cars there already when we arrived so we immediately started to record stuff, mindful that the light would soon start to fade as the evening wore on. It was getting a little dark by the time we left, but hopefully the clips are ok.
Highlights at the Tern Hill Hall meet this time included a pair of Triumph 2.5 PI Mk1 saloons, an Austin Victoria, a 105E Anglia with a rare "Continental" type kit on it, an Austin 1300GT, and a neat Vauxhall Viva HB "Brabham" edition, to name just a few. It's definitely a meet we'll get along to again in future all being well.

Great coverage of a great show with some really beautiful cars and bikes. I thought the Anglia with the continental kit was worth the price of admission alone.
Thanks for posting.
Thanks! 👍 Yes the 105E was an unusual sight, I don't think I've ever seen that kit before in the metal. As I think I mentioned in the video, years ago I bought some large-ish, side-on, colour illustrations (prints) of various cars, one was of an Anglia just like the one at this meet.
Thanks again for another wonderful upload, I don't always comment but be assured I love your channel!
Great, thanks, always nice to read everyone's comments
The Vauxhall Viva was very popular here in Australia ,my sister had one of those Brabham ones they were very hard to get loved the one at that car meet cheers
Hi Rick - what a brilliant show, but I never really got past the Bullnose SAAB 96 2 stroke ! What a gorgeous car. I had one exactly like that as my first car, in 1972 - 3794 VB. Went like a rocket. Oh how I wish I had it today ! Lovely to hear that one on its way out - so many fun memories. Thanks for sharing your day out with us. Take care 🙂
Yep the SAAB was a definite highlight, iirc I had a chat with the owner in a previous video (perhaps Eccleshall 2023?)
Well worth a visit Richard. Something for all tastes . Thanks
Thanks, it's on again this week I think
Some lovely oily rags ❤
My Dad had a new MK 2 Cortina 1600 Super Automatic in Saluki Bronze in 1968 ,and yeah the Supers all had the chrome trim around the wheel arches. 👍
Cool, thanks, we hope to go to this meet later today so I'll look out for the Mk2 again
Another great video. They all bring back a lot of youthful memories...71 now. Quite a few of these brands made it too the States but usually badged differently. I'm surprised not to see any Sunbeam Alpines or Talbots. Sorry it took me 3-4 videos to subscribe. Thank you.
Thanks for watching and subbing!
Thanks for video😊😊😮
Thanks for making the effort to cover this meet. I thought that first Saab was immaculate, then you continued down the row and they all looked very spiffed. That Austin Victoria was interesting in that the front looked borrowed from an early Audi 80 with the rear almost pure Triumph. What a great night for cars.
Thanks yes it was a civilised gathering, we'll try and get over there again
Oh sorry great work by you and your son great entertainment thanks so much 🙏👍
My dad had a 1967 Viva HB. By 1974 there were rust holes in the sills that you could put your fist through.
Ouch, it's amazing that any of these old cars survive really
excellent event, loved the two triump 2.5 pi, The mark ones look so much better than the mark 2.
Agreed!
I didn't realise they did the PI that early, all the ones I saw were the later shape front end.
My dad owned a Vauxhall Viva. Exact model you showed here @30:00 Loved that car.
My brothers neighbour has done exactly the same to his Chrysler 300C with the Bentley badges, completely weird and so obvious. An interesting collection of cars, I would have that1300 GT in a heartbeat. Great North Run here today and the weather is absolutely vile and the roads will be chaotic so a RUclips binge is in order.
Yep that GT is a rare survivor, it also popped up at an event we went to yesterday. We've knocked today's planned outing on the head due to the weather, we nearly "lost" a camera a while back in similarly wet conditions so I don't fancy repeating that again. Enjoy your YT binge!
I could see a few tantalising glimpses of my car but I guess it is too modern for your viewers. Loved that 1913 Chalmers, I’m sure I have seen that roaring around the Cheshire/Shropshire lanes!
Sorry I missed yours, I was rushing around a bit as it was getting darker by the minute :)
Hi Rick, thank you for a great video you revealed a few cars I have never heard of before brilliant keep them coming 👍
You may be interested in a little storey about my 1967 hb viva. I past my driving test in my dads hillman hunter and at the time he didn't want to sell it so I went with my dad to view a red 1967 beetle 1500cc 6v. He managed to put me off buying it and I ended up with the HB viva instead, 🙄.
Ps I did buy the hillman hunter off my dad later , great car.
Cheers Pete.
I'll do my best! thanks for watching and posting :)
The Austin Victoria, in right hand drive and called the Austin Apache, was built and sold in South Africa from around 1971 to around 1977 or 1978. They were quite popular and a common sight on South African roads. Might have been the last ADO16 produced. Not sure why the UK preferred the Allegro over the Apache.
I was thinking that, it might have sold better than the Allegro.
In 1972 I got a lift home in an ex-works Triumph 2000PI rally car! An exciting journey - and not the sort of car to find up in Newcastle. I can't remember how the owner came by it or if it was rallied.
I'm sure that went (and sounded) very well
A great evening meet by all accounts and far too many cars to mention. Just a few stand out ones, the Victoria was a great car also the Jensen C V8 I very much like those. The MK 2 Cortina Super was another gem and by the way not all MK 2's had the chrome trim around the arches and along the sills, I think the 1600 E was one of the others and possibly the Savage but the Savage is a rare car now. Thanks for the video and as my late Mother would say 'do you want some pegs to keep your eyes open?' :-) 👍👍
Thanks for the Mk2 info, the meet is on again later this week but whether the sun will be out for it is anyone's guess ...
How was it in France ? Did you have a nice vacation with your family ? Glad to have you back here on U tube. ❤❤❤
Yes thanks, all very jolly, and some great finds as the vid revealed!
I believe I prefer the front end of the MK-1 Triumph 2000/2500, better than the later ones. It’s much more interesting.
And I wonder what would have happened if that Austin Victoria would have been sold, there in the U.K.
21:02, Alfa/ Nissan Cherry: I had the Nissan, but it was called the “Datsun-Nissan 310” in North America. A good little car. Smallish engine, though, for Interstate driving at 65 MPH, sounded like a buzz saw.

The answer to would I have a black or red Golf GTI is. I would have a white one!!! In 1986 I owned a white one and it was the best car I ever had. I suspect that the colour had been changed from silver because originally they only came in black, red or silver.
Or ideally one of each! Thanks for watching
had vauxhall viva HB Estate
Cool, quite rare now
Austin 1300 colour front like the dolomite and rear dolomite but side view was like a maxi 🙄
like 167 !
Thanks for looking in!
Is this only an annual event ?
I think it's a few times in a year, I've a feeling the final one of '24 is coming up soon

Thank you for replying, I’ll see if I can find out 👍🏻
Appreciate you can’t do anything about it but your videos are now over run with adverts. RUclips making longer content unwatchable. Without the likes of yourself, there’d be no RUclips
