Terry Bond Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) Sure wish I could get back there for a visit! Been many years but I had so many great times there. is the Beaulieu road house still the Pub of choice there? My fondest memories were leading a group of friends down from Scotland who had never heard of Bealieu before. I had borrowed an old movie form AACA HQ and showed it at a club meeting and they were in awe. That first trip to Beaulieu opened some eyes pretty wide and it became an annual trip for many. I can fondly recall those early Sunday morning feeding frenzies as the new Sunday only vendors opened up their stalls and goodies got snapped up quicker than the old K Mart Blue Light specials! Found some great stuff there and someday I'll be back again. One of our local region members ventured over there a couple of years ago and took some great pics for us, and although it's changed a bit, there was still a selection of brass, signs, and all kinds of great automobilia on display. Post some pics for us to enjoy! Terry Edited August 22, 2016 by Terry Bond (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Bond Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Yes-pics are important as are post-event reports! It's been years since I've been there but one of our local region members visited a couple of years ago. I had a good friend email me a couple of pics I'll try and post a bit later when I get a chance. Like a lot of other swap meets, the focus shifts towards newer and newer vehicles, however it' still one of the top events of it's kind for European cars/parts and automobilia. Lots of stuff you won't see anywhere else, but I'm told brass isn't as prevalent as it was a few years ago. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
