EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1928, we are transported back to the Southport Rally, where a driver proudly showcases his Ford Model A Saloon. The car's registration number, TM3611, indicates its uniqueness as a concours competition vehicle. As the driver opens the fitted toolkit of his beloved automobile, we catch a glimpse of the meticulous attention to detail that went into these classic cars. The image captures not only the beauty of the vintage vehicle but also reflects on an era when motoring was both a passion and an art form. Dressed in period-appropriate attire, including a hat and formal clothing, this gentleman exudes sophistication and elegance. The Southport Rally served as a gathering point for motor enthusiasts who shared their love for automobiles and motorsports. It provided an opportunity for like-minded individuals to showcase their prized possessions while engaging in friendly competition. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, it is evident that every element has been carefully considered – from the spare wheel attached to the side of the car to each tool neatly arranged within its designated space. This print serves as a testament to craftsmanship and dedication towards preserving automotive history. With W. J Brunell behind the lens capturing this momentous occasion at National Motor Museum, we are reminded of how far technology has advanced since then while appreciating our roots in transportation innovation.
