British Car Festival
Des Plaines, IL - September 7, 1997



Over 800 pieces of British Eye-candy
(What a scanner work-out!)

On September 17, I attended the one-day British Car Festival held in Des Plaines, Illinois (Chicago Suburb). There were many wonderful cars that I never had a chance to take photos of and I apologize for their omission - but I only brought two rolls of film.

I should mention that Frank Ianucelli won best Sprite - congrats Frank!. He was featured in the last issue of PDLJMPR, so he only gets one photo this time (below - the red Bugeye with the wide white-walls).

Here are some Sprites!


Gary Reiter's '60 Bugeye


William Cantrall's Bugeye


Sam & Kathy Hochberg's MKIV


A Round-arch Midget, Big Healey 100's, a Mini, a Sunbeam Tiger, and a ??? - you tell me!
