Classic car "get together" in Shildon Sunday 27thMy old man (who has no interest in cars whatsoever) decided to pop along to this on Sunday and get a few snaps I understand the local Tatra club then went off up to Hamsterley for a bit of a blast after the meet.
Not my thing but seeing as though he took the pics I thought I would share them with the forum rather than them just geting deleted. Maybe of interest to someone.
I think you can just make out the rally GB sticker on this mini

Re: Classic car "get together" in Shildon Sunday 2I think that this is a Fairthorpe Electron......... my dad built one from a kit in the late fifties / early sixties. His version had a little bench rear seat & I remember travelling in the back when I was a little sprog. It had to go when little brother 1 came along. His next motor was a Ford Corsair 2000E with black vinyl roof.
Fairthorpes are quite rare so I will check with my old man whether this is actually one.
