Club Wins at NEC

The Pre-1940 Triumph Motor Club was honoured to receive the award for the Best Medium sized club stand at the recent Classic & Sports Car show at the NEC in Birmingham.

It is not an easy task to assemble 6 pre-1940 cars at a location in the middle of the country, especially as they had to be taken and left there for

4 days, with very strict arrival and departure rules in what was winter weather and dark nights. However, under the control of Martin Johnson-Howe, the Club's Regional Representive for the West Midlands, the task was achieved, for the first time in some 15+ years.

Cars displayed were a 2 litre Gloria Vitesse Saloon, a Dolomite Roadster, a Dolomite Sports Saloon, a Super Seven de-luxe Saloon, a Super Nine open Tourer and a Gloria Southern Cross two seater sports car.

The display received a lot of attention, bringing us new members, much information about long lost pre-war Triumphs and a satisfaction, that in closing our Club Golden Junliww Year, we had concluded with a very public presentation of our wonderful cars.  Special thanks to Martin, Brian, Bob, Les, and Bernard for displaying their cars and all the other members who came along and supported the Club.

If anyone has any information, or pictures and stories, about any pre-1940 Trimph, whether they were owned by the respondent, or just known by hearsay or memory, then Graham Shipman, the club Archivist and Librarian would be pleased to hear from you. Graham can be contacted at registrar@pre-1940triumphmotorclub.org
