Hundreds of people turned out to attend the last outdoor event of the classic car show calendar over the weekend.

Warm and bright autumnal weather prevailed for much of the event at Ryhope Engines Museum Classic Car Show in Sunderland on Sunday (October 13).

Organised by the Sunderland and District Classical Vehicle Society, the event attracted around 150 commercials, historic motor cycles and classic cars.

From three-wheelers, such as BSA, Bond Bug and Microcar, to American muscle cars and sleek Aston Martin and Jaguars visitors weren’t short of things to see.

Included in the showings were also vehicles dating back to the 1920s for true vintage car lovers.

Traders also set up shop at the event offering several rare and unusual motoring items and other goods.

The show was held in the grounds of the restored Victorian Water Pumping Station, which was operated from 1869 to 1967 by Sunderland and South Shields Water Company.

Two impressive steam engines were also present at the event and the main building housed huge boilers and blacksmiths’ shop.

Pleasant weather wasn’t set to last, however, as by 2.30pm the temperatures dropped and rain began to fall bringing a close to a mostly pleasant day.
