The event is orchestrated on a continuing basis by the Mid Atlantic Camaro Club (MACC). It has been going on for some time now and has been growing in size. During the summer months, they have the parking lot coned off. Food at the diner is quite good, as well. Participants in the cruise-in are mainly, but not limited to, American muscle cars (and some very nice ones). Every week, there are new and different cars (including British cars on occasion). For photos of this event, check out the MACC web site at http://www. geocities.com/MotorCity/7966/macccrui.htm. CTR members attend in a semi-organized fashion. MACC is gracious enough to reserve some space in the middle of the parking lot for us (which they do not even do for themselves!). We set up a mini “Triumph” display, have dinner as a group, and just hang out for a while.

My special thanks go to Count Leopold Lippens, mayor of the town and president of the Zoute Automobile Club, the town of Knokke-Heist and all of its officials and the organisers of the Zoute Grand Prix. We have sourced an exciting and varied selection of automobilia and collectors’ motor cars, with a particularly strong accent on quality rather than quantity and with numerous lots offered without reserve allowing buyers not vendors to determine the current market correct values. Whether you are an experienced bidder wishing to enhance your collection or a first time buyer, I am confident that we offer something that will appeal to you – in addition where else in the world can you one day tell your grandchildren that you bid on and hopefully purchased the car they are driving in a spectacular tent on a beach! In our commitment to holding this sixth sale here in Belgium’s most prestigious seaside resort we very much wish to make a statement of our belief in the success of the five previous editions and in continuing the construction of a long and rewarding partnership with the above, as well as the event partners and sponsors over the coming years and share with them a common goal of providing another rewarding experience with the very best service.

    www.wheels-alive.co.uk Standard’s Vanguard Story Published: 28th October 2020 Author: Dave Moss Online version: https://www.wheels-alive.co.uk/standards-vanguard-story/ This superb 1948 Phase I belongs to Mark Denton, who restored the car in 1992. Standard’s Vanguard Story First World Car to final swansong in under 20 years. Dave Moss describes the history of this boldly-conceived model… Kim adds: Please note, this feature is intended to provide a general outline of the history of www.wheels-alive.co.uk all the Vanguards produced, to help those who may be unfamiliar with Standards bearing the name, rather than a detailed description of each version. (All photographs by Kim Henson, who personally thanks all the Vanguard owners who have enthusiastically helped to tell the story of their models to a wider audience. Some of the photographs were taken at the Standard Motor Club’s excellent International Rallies held in recent years. Others were taken with the kind help of Mark Denton, Vanguard enthusiast extraordinaire). Today the term “world car” is familiar even to those with only a passing interest in the vast industry that designs and makes motor vehicles. Cars are nowadays routinely built around the globe with multiple markets in mind, and despatched to territories worldwide, heading to buyers unaware of how well travelled their new vehicle already is. Though this approach might seem a fairly recent phenomenon, in 2020 its 75 years since what’s widely regarded as the first genuine world car was created. The concept’s originator was the Standard Motor Company’s then newly knighted managing director, Sir John Black, who, like industry leaders across Britain after the second world war, returned to car making under a government edict to prioritise exports.

EDITORIAL Dear Razoredge Owners’ Club Members, Welcome to Flaming June, we hope, and in particular to fine weather for our meeting at Hanbury Hall on June 11th. You’ll find fuller details of the arrangements within this edition. The idea of a club rally doesn’t necessarily appeal to everyone; a member recently told me “I don’t have a woolly hat or a beard, and I can’t see any point spending a day sitting in a field.” It’s not as bad as all that! However, for members who don’t particularly enjoy the traditional rally gathering, or who live too far away to contemplate driving to Worcester, our ‘What’s On’ pages list a wide variety of events, activities and meetings all around the country and further abroad.
