Great video, by far my favorite type of cars. The dedication these people have is truly amazing. Thank you for the tour of the pits, love seeing these cars up close every one a beauty in its own right.
Such an Inspiration!! This video shows the incredible machines that are still out there running well because of the love from everyone like me across the pond..lol.....My plans right no are starting a UA-cam channel and using the machine shop I have assembled to make parts for my Restomod projects. The first one is a 1928 Morgan/MG special 3 wheeler with 4 wheels. I am building a supercharged opposed twin engine from an experimental aircraft. I am casting an adapter out of aluminum to mate that engine to an MG 4 speed manual gearbox connected to an MG differential with juice brakes and beautiful wire wheels. It is an aircraft cloth stretched over a wooden frame over steel sprayed with plasticizer for durability. It will have a Brooklands style Boat-Tail and look exactly like a 20's airplane without a propeller or wings. The next project will be a Boat -Tail Pembleton style cycle car with a BMW R-100 turbocharged opposed twin also mated to an MG 4 speed manual gearbox ending in a 10 bolt limited slip differential and either ceconite covered or mild steel or aluminum painted dark sanguine red or British Racing Green. I am recovering from getting run over by an F350 on my 1957 Harley Panhead and I will be starting as soon as it is warm enough to work outside in the barn here in Pennsylvania. Hope to see you there ....I will be calling my channel Machines and Motors tentatively...
Lovely stuff from one of the highlights of an MM but a caption showing the manufacturer or creator of each model would have been very welcome, I know my Benz(s) from my Mercedes, a Napier from a Theophile, aorta Vauxhall (great idea those bonnet flutes, pity GM dropped those Vauxhall might still be an more or less independent business had they been re-introduced, I’d be tempted anyway) and a Darracq from a FIAT and can usually recognise a Mercedes Benz, a Napier or a Sunbeam but so many marques have vanished since these brilliant machines drew breath that to a non-expert but enthusiastic car person it’s hard to recognise so many of them.

Love the machines and appreciate the dreams they were born from. I also love the music. Who's playing the jazz on the soundtrack?
Is this an annual event,these are exactly the type of cars I would love to see running.
Yea, it's at Goodwood Festival of Speed over in Sussex
