Classic cars, motorbikes and military vehicles turned out for Wimborne Model Town’s recent Vintage Day event.
John Ilott’s “Jimmy”, a 1943 ten wheeled American troop carrier, was the big hit of the show while visitors crowded into the garden arena to wave flags and listen to a We’ll Meet Again 1940s tribute by The Land Girls.
Dave Stokes from the Dorset BSA Owners Club spent the day giving sidecar rides with his 1950s motorcycle combinations and raised £115 in donations for the volunteer run charity visitor attraction.
“With the warm sunshine, the Model Town was offering a quieter reflective Vintage Day atmosphere this year in the run up to the royal funeral,” said spokesman Greg Hoar.
