Initial set up underway - we had a 50's Jowett Jupiter fresh from the bodyshop but awaiting fitting up, a 30's Jowett Kestrel Barn find, 40's Jowett Bradford van that had a all new ash frame assembled at the show, a unique Jowett Bradford factory cut a way display engine which was stripped at the show ready for cosmetic restoration & a 1950 Jowett Javelin bodyshell undergoing final body profiling & reshaping

And again were hugely humbled in picking up the prize for 'The best live restoration stand' at the show - this is no mean feat for us when you see the competition - what's more this completed the hat trick having now won it for 3 consecutive years :D
