Hey there, fellow car enthusiasts (or curious lurkers 👀)!

Okay, I know what you’re thinking: "Why does this woman have Byford Classic Car Club plastered all over her influencer page?” Well… buckle up, because here’s the lowdown:

👉 I’m the Secretary of the club (yep, that’s me behind the scenes with the clipboard and emails).

👉 I’ve got a serious soft spot for classic cars—thanks to my hubby, Barry W, who just so happens to be the President. His passion revved my engine, and now here we are. He’s still the car guru; I’m just the enthusiastic sidekick making it all happen.

There has been some changes to his car from the last post - I will put them below after the club update

What’s Byford Classic Car Club all about?

We’re not just a club; we’re a community of classic car lovers, approved by the Department of Transport for the C4C Scheme (that’s Concessions for Classics for the cool kids), covering vehicles made on and before 1995 🚘

We’re a social club. We cruise, we chat, we shine up our rides, and we host events that bring together car nuts of every kind.

Thinking of joining? You totally should. Here’s the dream team steering the ship:

🧑‍✈️ President – Barry Western

🧑‍✈️ Vice President/Events – Allan Connors

💰 Treasurer – Tara Connors

✍️ Secretary – Yours truly (Tunney Western)

👨‍🔧 Committee Members – Jerome Donders, Norm Fowler, Gary Gant, Barry Hahn, Scott Fellows, Shane Kelly

We’re always on the lookout for awesome businesses to collaborate with—whether you're a coffee van, food truck, or small biz looking to connect with a vibrant, friendly crowd. Hit us up! Sponsorships? Cruise destinations? We’re listening.
