The Audlem Festival of Transport 2023 | Prep, Parade & Show

The 2023 Audlem Festival of Transport was our 16th year of taking part in this classic car show & parade, the 24th occurrence of this popular classic cars event in Cheshire.
In previous years we've taken cars such as our old Standard Super 10, Austin A40 Devon, Morris Minor, Volvo PV444 and others, all now long-gone. For this year's Audlem Festival of Transport we took the Dodge pickup and MX5 Mk1, with dad also attending in his MGB GT.
The format of this transport festival was as in previous years - the cars gather at Hankelow opposite the White Lion pub, then at a set time the road is briefly closed enabling the parade of classic cars and other vehicles to drive the couple of miles down to the show field in Audlem itself, where the cars re-congregate for the remainder of the day.
Hundreds of people turned out as usual to wave the cars through, and a jolly day was had.
Highlights of this year's Audlem Festival of Transport for us included the impressive Bedford lorry and boat(s) combination, a fine assortment of 1950s/1960s Fords (plus 1917 Model T pickup), MG1300, pre-war BSA and Standard saloons, Range Rover ambulance and Bond Equipe, but there were also many others that caught our eye as this video will demonstrate.
The video itself starts with preparing the Dodge and its "cargo" (a 1960s Lotus racing car originally installed on a funfair ride) for the event, plus a few other updates regarding old cars and things here at OCC HQ. We then head over to Hankelow, take a look at the classic cars as they arrived, head off in the parade, then walk around the show field in Audlem to see what we'd missed earlier. We also head down to the canal to admire a gathering of historic narrowboats, ogle a fine vintage Austin saloon and 1910s char-a-banc, and then return to the main event via the centre of Audlem village itself, taking in a few of the fine old buildings.
I'll include a link at the end of this upload to the 2022 Audlem Festival of Transport and other classic cars shows we've been to lately.
