The meeting wul be for club members only and wul be open to pre c.1973 cars withoot the aid i aerodynamic "wings" and running oan treaded tyres.
Various car clubs will also be displayin their members' cars in front of Kinneil Hoose. Wee Gill is particularly keen ti see the 1984 Porsche 911 Carrera n hus threatened ti make advances ti the driver if a dinny git ma act thegithir.
Even wee Sir Jackie Stewart hus sent his support sayin, "I, of course, personally spent many happy hours at Bo'ness". Nae doobt Jackie's wheels wur a veritable Lon Chaney Magnet back then.
