Morgan look-alike. This one's a Triking with a Guzzi engine. Triking were the more expensive alternative to the real Morgans, JZR being the other big player, and a fair bit cheaper.
Car to the right is an Jenson Healey GT. (Unusual car, but from the info I have, production was 1975-1976 for the GT)

Looks like a fine day out was had by all Tony. I passed a blower Bentley driving Brooklands-wards on the A3 as I was heading to the Phoenix meet. That yellow buggy may be Mr Goforest's, or one of his buggy boys. Nice report Tone, thanks. We'll stock-pile any write-ups you lot send in & add them to the main site, along with event photos, once we're fully online again. Oh, & yup, the Phoenix stayed dry!

Mr B, who organises the Boxing Day classic meet in Romsey, has extended the cut-off date for classics from '72 to '76. Makes a big difference to entry numbers apparently. I wonder what my truck will be classed as? It's based on a 1953 Ford, but will have a Q plate.

Reckon the Mercs that were there could be because of the relationship between Merc & Brooklands  Looking at the photos I put up, the Triking, Jenson and De Lorean all all post 1973 !! Rascals! Overall, we thought it a pretty good turn out............

I asked my mate Bob what year his Triumph was - he said "Which bit?" (It's 1950s).
