Following last years success at this show the stand area was increased this year to 18 sq m to give space for a car and two motorcycles. The car was my own Phantom P79 Classic Clubmans in rolling chassis form with clear LTC coating on the chassis to show any cracks in the frame or brazing over time, Brilliance" gold on the suspension and wheels, TLTD on the oil cooler/tank, engine and diff casing plus the Turbo X Blue exhaust.

This attractive combination of working coatings attracted a lot of attention and photographs.

The racing bikes were a Honda K4 250 cc and a Seeley Weslake 850 cc kindly loaned by Gary and Tony Freeman respectively. Both have exhausts coated to "Racespec".

The show was made more enjoyable by our neighbouring stand where "George Formby" astride his film replica motorcycle regaled us with frequent bursts of "TT Races" on his ukelele. This is a class act by Graeme Hardy who is also Stan Laurel in the Laurel & Hardy combination seen at the big meetings such as the Goodwood Festival.

All in all a very successful weekend and a pleasure to meet existing customers and future prospects.
