I went along to the SSAFA car show on Sunday and there was a fair turn out of vehicles on show and spectators to admire them.
The Mayor of Tameside, Councillor Joe Kitchen was there
And as well as serving troops and cadets quite a few of the 'old brigade'
There were army vehicles both modern....
....and not so modern
....and not so modern
A line-up of American cars from the 1950s.....
......included this 1958 Ford Edsel Ranger, a car which lost the Ford Motor Company several hundred million dollars, the blame for which was put by some people on the unusual styling
A Triumph Roadster from the late 1940s as seen in the 'Bergerac' television series
An Austin 7 Ruby from the mid-1930s
And lastly a couple of Royal Enfields amongst the motorcycle contingent
