The Grampian Transport Museum from Aberdeenshire, Scotland, is on the hunt for mass-produced classic vehicles that have disappeared from the country's roads. The reason for this is an event that will take place on May 24, 2015.
The show, entitled "The How Many Left?", is open to mass-produced vehicles from the 1960s to the present day, of which only less than 500 taxed examples remain today.
The rarest classic, in terms of the number of examples originally produced, is to be honored with a prize. According to museum director Mike Ward, there are various definitions of when a vehicle can be classified as rare: "Really rare are those vehicles that were built in large numbers for everyday use, but of which only a few have survived."
The show will factor in the rarity of the vehicles using a special formula that compares the production figures with the remaining number of vehicles and then select the winners accordingly. This will allow them to determine what role the fondly, or not so fondly, remembered famous classics have played in people's lives.
Owners of such rarities, which have long since disappeared from the nation's roads, will be able to present their favorites at the show. Parades, demos and passenger rides are also planned. There is no entry or entry fee for the vehicles. However, adults pay £5 and children up to the age of 16 are admitted free of charge.
If you would like to be there with your classic car and are not afraid of the long journey from our latitudes, you can download the registration form online from the museum's website.
