Our annual European Car Show was this past weekend, and for the first time the local VW club also shared the park on the same day... Pictures?

And there were two one-of-a-kind cars there this year, a Sunbeam Tiger Harrington, thought to be the only one ever made, and a 1953 Fiat 1100 show car that is obviously a one-off, plus for good measure a very rare truck called a VW Type 147 Fridolin... All accounted for in the photos plus more... Heck the Sunbeam Tiger Harrington even has it's own BCF thread started by me many years ago, and the car in question showed up in my backyard... https://www.britishcarforum.com/bcf/showthread.php?4154-Sunbeam-Tiger-Harrington-coupe-on-E-Bay
 
Awesome! thanks for sharing. Always love your pics.
 
Sunbeam Tiger Harrington
Is that the one you showed a few times?

What makes that different than the lemans one that one of the members has

Well... Flickr is down for the evening (maintenance), anyway... There is a member of BCF who built a replica of the Sunbeam Lister LeMans coupes, but they aren't the same car as the Harrington, the basic story is that pretty much all the Harrington coupes built were based on the Sunbeam Alpine (4-cylinder engine), there is some dispute but the Tiger Harrington I saw last weekend is believed to be the only Harrington built around a Tiger with the Ford V8...
 
Not a replica, homebuilt by him, he took a Sunbeam Alpine/Tiger bodyshell and chassis, and did his own clone of a Lister Tiger, I saw the car once about ten years ago now, very well built and a very nice car!

Well I am completely confused .
But that's a normal condition around here
