Sunday 14th May '06. 11am - 5pm. Free admission. War Memorial Park, Crossborough Hill, Basingstoke, Hants. Autojumble, live music etc. Run each year by the Thornycroft classic vehicle society, this has really grown & is fast becoming one of the biggest gatherings of vintage & veteran transport of all types in the South. Owners' clubs of all descriptions, bikes, cars, buses, lorries, fire engines, army vehicles, traction engines -just about every wheeled conveyance imaginable is represented, often with dozens of each marque in attendance. For example, last year I counted no less than 4 original Model T Fords. How often do you see ONE running, let alone 4? The Thornycroft Society were formed to preserve examples of the famous Thornycroft heavy lorrries, once a major employer in the town, & several of the huge Amazon, Atlas & Antar tank transporters will be there. See Rallly/Show Photos for piccies of last year's event.
