Thanks john

Does that mean that post 1947 cars are not welcome?

Graham says "Dress in appropriate period clothing" and so that means dress up any post 1947 car.

There was no Motor Show in 1947.

The 32nd International Motor Exhibition was held at Earls Court 13th-22nd October 1938.
The 33rd was held at Earls Court Oct 27th to Nov 6th.

And that's the point - we are holding the 1947 Motor Show, just 70 years late!

Of course all are welcome and I'm hoping to make a feature of the 1940's cars.
