Pictures of the 1951 Festival of Britain show.

P.W. in the white shirt, fending off traffic wardens.

1951 RT just parked up and being iconic.

 
A vanderlised (pun intended) J type, a rare Martin Walter mini bus now butchered body work to sell overprice ice creams.

Ex GPO van made into a pick-up then sold on and re-bodied to sell overprice fish and chips to the tourists. £10.50 per portion!!

Must have been two much salt on the chips, to have two ice cream vans on site.
Thanks to G.S. for the above pictures. G.S. has been very busy with his J type recently and has sent more pictures of his project. Check out his blog here. http://myh238.blogspot.com/
Also Tinworm has made contact, seems he had not been watching any J type blogs for a year or so, he has missed out on some fine stuff in that time. It's good news that he is back on his project. Check out his blog to see what his progress is.
