Did I say Aston Martiin I meant Fraser Nash. In fact all three
Brit Cars that competed against each were there. The Fraser
Nash, a Jaguary, and a Bentley. The last time all three were
at one spot was at LeMans.
All sorts of neat cars are driven (not trailered) to the Festival.
This year a 1923 Silver Ghost, An early 30's Bentley left side
(no doors on the right covered in hand fitted leather not paint)
2 Morgan trikes, an Arnolt Bristol, etc.

Perhaps the car in question was a Frazier Nash.
There was the LeMans Rep.
And then there was the Rep Rep.
I have no idea how it's possible to do a replica of a replica, but I
believe Frazier Nash (or someone) managed it. :-)
