They will include cars, hot rods, trucks and hopefully motor bikes which have been restored and presented as a very colourful display. However any owner of an American car is also welcomed to come as well and help swell the numbers. The best car on show, as judged by the mill, will be awarded a special prize.car of the day trophy, HotRods, Classics, American, Trucks and Bikes all welcome, all donations go to the upkeep on the Windmill, to a great cause keeping the Windmill going. Also on site will be a burger van ,whilst there should also be other stalls as well.
We have enjoyed their previous visits - and so did the car owners and they have asked if we could receive them again next Sunday, September 22nd So there will be another ‘Little America’ at the windmill when huge Buicks, Cadillacs etc will be on show. The mill and the cars will be open from 11-00 am until about 4-00 pm.
