Displaying an oldie

We have just inherited a 1960s Bedford with an elevated roof. We have been told that it is quite rare, so would like to display it at local shows. We are not club people so would rather go it alone. Will this be difficult?

ALLAN SAYS
My usual advice with any old vehicle is to join a club, to get parts and advice, and cheaper insurance. You don't have to attend meetings or events if you do not wish to.

Look in Classic Car or Historic Memory magazines to find car shows. Your main problem going it alone is public liability insurance, which is a requirement at all events. Some events even require completion of a health risk assessment. Contact one of the insurance brokers in the classic magazines, but bear in mind this might cost over £50 per year, compared with about £20 for club membership, which would include such cover, even if you display on your own.
