Manchester to Blackpool Run
Today I was able to go and photograph just under 50 pre-1980’s cars. They were invited by the Lancashire Automobile Club and were dispatched from the Worsley Old Hall, in Worsley, Manchester.
I enjoy events with cars and tend to go for more speedy events like rallys. But today having been given the opportunity I find that its amazing to see how well preserved some of the vehicles are, in fact I bet some of them only get brought out once a year.
Kneeling on the floor was killing my kneeling knee but then again the pictures do look so much better if you can get the lower angle. At that level there was also a very strong smell of premium fuel - I bet some of these cars would have run happily on crude oil closer to the start of their lives.
Well I hope they all made it to sunny Blackpool in the times allocated and I look forward to hearing some of the tales.
