A lot depends on when in August, as there is lot going on in July & August (not round here mind you)

 

When you know a date & if, as your website suggests, you want multi-period then it might be worth posting on here: http://www.livinghistory.co.uk/index.php

 

Many thanks for the link I will have to post over I am hoping to be at Stoneleigh militaria 2017 and promote it there its our attempt to try and bring a show in with some of the old military show character something worth while not the usual turn up display truck and go home lots to do and enjoy there seems to be a lot of intrest will see how it goes all I can do is just keep chipping away at it

Website has 19 - 20 August. Simon, would be a good idea as a matter of routine to post the dates, location etc. wherever you're posting about this - the less people have to jump through hoops the better.

Hello David yes we do have trade stands we have tried to keep them military only we have spoken to some of the main stream dealers who seem very interested I need to get back to some but I am not handling that side somebody else is managing that I am just keeping an eye on it I am hoping LMS will come and solder of fortune have shown interest its to early at this point I have been to a few clubs (MVT) and if I go by votes of interest we could get 200 vehicles plus we have now had to apply for a special license for fly pasts because of the amount of aircraft wanting to fly over I have had trade stands that have booked and paid coming from Spain and Belgium I will be updating as time goes on as soon as I can get a list of trades I will post them

Many Thanks for the interest I will be on site for all arrivals if you have a military vehicle do bring it along and take part it would be great to see you

Thanks for the info Simon.

 

Unfortunately I don't own a Military Vehicle myself, just several Paintings and Prints of them, along with Aviation Paintings and Prints. Please do have a look at my website to see what I do. http://www.david-walker.org.uk

This was an older one as an example.
