The rain lashed down all night and it was still raining as I loaded the 71 B GT for the trip down to Ripon for the annual show.
This would normally have been a day out in the TA but it's still off the road. One of the reasons for going to Ripon was to find some parts and I got most of what I wanted.
The rain had eased by the time we set off and we had a good blast down the A19 and arrived at Ripon just before 10am. The turnout was down on previous years. I think the wet weather put a lot of people off.
Thankfully the rain held off and the afternoon turned out to be warm & sunny and we had a great time. I was tempted to buy one of my dream cars, a Mk1 Jaguar but closer inspection revealed that it wasn't that good and certainly not worth the asking price.
I took about 80 photos. Here are a few to show what the day was like.

There is always some entertainment on. This year was a magic show and this great Buddy Holly tribute.
