Stirling Classic Car Club

Now in its fourth year and held at Strathallan Games Park in Bridge of Allan, the Stirling Classic Car Club had approximately 450 cars attend this event today.
I unfortunately was on a tour with some American golfers and when we were talking earlier in the week I mentioned I was meant to be judging this show but unable because of work commitments.
The Americans said they would like to visit Stirling Castle and suggested I drop them there in the morning, they could wander around and I could go and judge the cars……..Thank you Marta and Wally emoticon

With 450 cars to check over it certainly was not going to be easy. There were 4 judges and we started with the private entries. Moving on from there we then judged the best club car, this caused a bit of frustration as some of the clubs could not make up their minds which car to enter, some clubs did not wish to enter, and some clubs tried mucking us about and told us they would finish lunch before choosing which car to enter

Eventually the judges managed to agree that 3rd prize should go to a Westfield, second prize to a 1968 Jaguar MkII and first prize to a 1959 MGA.
The club has a policy that none of their own members can win a prize but instead this year they have introduced a separate prize for best club car which deservedly went to a 1954 Alvis Special TC21/100 which was on her maiden voyage today after a 5 year restoration.

Re: Stirling Classic Car Club

The Rover P4 belonged to a friend of mine, he sold it last year because his wife could no longer drive it and he has never been able to drive because of poor eyesight. Not stopped him owning 7 classics though! The P4 is mint, he was asking 9K for it.

Re: Stirling Classic Car Club

I was hearing the story today about the P4....I wasn't told the price though.

I hear it will be at the SARR next week, it will draw a fair bit of attention

Re: Stirling Classic Car Club

He also owned a 1938 Rover 12 that had been in the TV series All Creatures Great and Small. That has gone to another NECPWA member near York. He has a P6B which he bought from Derek Mathewman who Johhno knows and they have kept that as its auto and is wife can drive it. The P4 won best in show at many NECPWA shows.
