How many cars total Gary?
No 2's, a nice showing of 3's, few 4's, a ton of 6's', 3 7's' 4 8's about 9 spitfires, 1 GT6, 1 beautiful Mayflower, an amphicar, 3 tvr's, 3 compition cars and assorted others. If I missed any I apologize. You get the picture, an extremly good gathering of Triumphs Cars from MA, CT, RI , VT , NH and NY. The weather and location were great. In the 2nd picture that's mine third from the right 1st row.
Andy asked "how many cars?" Rhodyspit gave a pretty good description of what was there. The TR6s far outnumbered everything else. I was pleased to see about 4-5 round tail Spitfires, an excellent showing of Mk 2s and 3s in my opinion. There was one Spit Six, the blue one above. A beauty! It was a hot day but a great one for Triumph lovers.
Rhodyspit ... I didn't know that was you. Sorry I missed you.
I think I want to go next year. Sounds like a terrific time!
Andy, there's a lawn event going on every Sunday throughout the summer and early autumn at the Larz Anderson Museum. You can't go wrong whichever event you see (although I'm partial to Triumphs). Here's a listing of lawn events for the remainder of this year.

And even though it's relatively small the museum has some interesting exhibits, such as a great collection of car styling renderings from the 30s through the 60s. Here's an oddball vehicle in the museum that you don't see often, a Stout Scarab:
MOT always has cool stuff happening, FYI their "Italian Car day" is usually the largest event for the year, in my opinion. Everything from old Vespas to high end modern sports cars. That's this Sunday!
FYI-Their MG/Rover Day is August 15th.
