Sandwell Historic Vehicle Show Sandwell Valley Country Park, West Bromwich. West Midlands. UK. The Sandwell Historic Vehicle Show is an outdoor event held annually in the West Midlands area of England. It takes place on a 60 acre showground, which is filled with over 800 vehicles representing all eras up to the mid 1980's. Coverage here is from the 28th show which took place in 2006. American cars, commercials, buses, motor cycles, fire engines and military vehicles were enjoyed by a reported crowd of over 40,000 admirers. There were plenty of photo opportunities for modelmakers after reference material and the vehicle owners were on hand and happy to answer any questions put to them. Jensens, Sandwell Valley Country Park, West Bromwich. West Midlands.
Highlights of the show included a 1923 Vauxhall and a Clyno Royal Tourer. They were joined by a large display of West Bromwich produced Jensens Cars, an impressive line up by the Jaguar Enthusiasts Club and a host of other well known names including Foden, Reliant, Ford, Morris and Rover.
The Sandwell
Model Boat Club were there entertaining the crowds with
their displays on the boating pond. Battleships, modelers, modeling, battle ships.
Other attractions included a collectors toy fair (featuring model train, model kit and die-cast stalls), craft fair, auto-jumble, market, trade stands and a very popular fun fair. If you are able to attend this event the next time it comes around, I highly recommend you check it out. The park itself is well signposted and just a few minutes drive away from Junction 1 of the M5 motorway, entrance to the show is free, it is well staffed and organised and there are plenty of things to keep the whole family entertained.
