Our 34th Annual All British Car (and Motorcycle!) Day on October 12th was a great success! 

We had over 70 cars registered this year and once again the weather cooperated giving us a beautiful day to show off our cars and enjoy everyone else’s pride and joy.   In addition to our MGs, we had a beautiful 2 owner original 1961 Rolls Royce along with other Rolls and Bentleys, Jags, Triumphs, and a nice turnout of our marque car this year, the Mini, including a rare example owned by David Fowler who won First Place.  

The Butler House Restaurant was once again our host and they came through by opening up their patio for us even though they are closed for remodeling. A special thanks to them for all their help.  Again this year we had people driving by that wanted to participate and entered their cars that day. 

In addition to our club’s great display of cars, our own Club band, Abingdon Express, provided live music!    Thanks goes to John Bowyer on Guitar and vocals, Walter Bernard on keyboards and vocals, Al Slayter on Bass, Ken Evesson on Drums and Ed Evesson as the sound guy and roadie.

Our Show would not be possible without the great  help of volunteers that gave their time and efforts during the show to make it the success it was:

Libby Nash, Doty Goldmeyer, Dwight and Candy Dawson...Silent Auction

Byron Nash…Parking

Scott Kalish and Roger Sykes…Entrance Directions/Handouts

Steve Session…Show Co-Chair, art design, voting process, late Registration.  

Our Annual British Car Day attracted the attention of the Houston area British Consulate who attended our festivities and handed out the winner awards. This was a treat and added British authenticity.  

The biggest thanks goes to all that attended and participated this year! Without you there would only be an empty parking lot instead of little puddles of oil in each parking space! See y’all at the 35th Annual all British Car Day next year!
