Willyslancs Posted August 10, 2009 Author Share Posted August 10, 2009 The early Ford belonged to a nice old guy who was a commando in ww2,this was his 3 jeep (had this 25 years).He worked on the estate so the jeep is used when the tractor gets stuck or they need it, told me it was easier to get around in between the trees .:coffee: Could not park anywhere near the prom for the air show:argh: , so no pics im afraid . My mate might have some....:coffee: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H1HU Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Had I not been stood on the ramp at Blackpool Airport next to the Lancaster as they fired up the four Merlins and then watched the Huey depart for its slot I would probably have popped along. Lytham Hall is certainly a great setting. Will sort out some pictures of the Lancaster for the aviation section. H1HU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
