This Month's Showcase

Goodwood Revival is coming (18th to 20th September)

For the petrolheads, classic car enthusiasts and nostalgia lovers among us, the Goodwood Revival is a very special event. It’s not only the world’s greatest historic motor racing event with pre-1966 race cars battling it out on the track, but it’s also the only motor racing event to be held entirely in period dress. 150,000 spectators attend every year, all of them dressed as if attending one of the Goodwood motor races when the track was first opened in 1945 until it closed in 1966. Mods, rockers, fashionistas, forces personnel and mechanics. I’ve even seen vicars and milkmen in full period dress.

So why am I talking about this? Because I’ve been going every year since the Revival started in 1998. My 1958 MGA police car has acted as the course car for most of that time and my 1942 Harley Davidson has also played a part. I’ve taken a stand in the shopping area there for over fifteen years so, if you happen to be going, do come and see me. We’re on stand 263 in the ‘Over-the-Road’ section (near the beer tent if you want a convenient landmark). I’m offering a 10% discount to members of the Goodwood Road Racing Club (GRRC), the Harley Davidson Fortyfivers club and anyone that reads this and comes to see me over the Revival weekend.

With around 4,000 posters on the website, I can’t show more than about 5% of my stock at the event but listed below are some that I plan to take. If there’s something here that you like, you can buy it now in the usual way or just reserve it and pick up the Revival. If there’s anything else on the website that isn’t on my Goodwood list, get in touch and I’ll bring it along for you to see there.
