Classics on show

MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC got  a rare opportunity to see and in some  cases touch some of the island’s classic  cars yesterday.
The Barbados Association  of Classic Cars (BACC) hosted the Classic Car Revival Meeting, sponsored by Courtesy Garage,  at Content, St Thomas, giving Barbadians who are car enthusiasts the opportunity  to view and learn details about cars  that are 30 years and older.
BACC secretary-treasurer  George Ullyett told the DAILY NATION that the event  was a family outing for classic car owners, whose main event was  their big show at the annual Holetown Festival.
He explained that last year when the same event was held, only club members attended. However, word  of mouth sparked public interest.
“So this year we decided to invite members of the public who are interested. They are seeing nothing  else but classic cars in fine condition.  The cars here are 30 years old and older, which is the criteria to join the club,”  he said. (AH)
