While down in Bexhill for the last weekend of August, I happened to be down the road from the Bexhill Classic & Custom Car Show, organised by the Bexhill 100 Motoring Club. As some may know, Bexhill-on-Sea is the birthplace of British motor racing, dating from 1902 (the first race was won by a Frenchman in a steam car). Being only a short walk from the park hosting the event, I took a camera along to get some shots, while the sun played hide-and-seek behind the clouds.

And, in turn, here are some samples (with a link to the full gallery at the foot of the post, for people who really like old cars - and one shot of a BMW i8). I may have concentrated slightly on the American imports and customs, rather than the European cars which are more often seen on the road. (I didn't bother with the early 2000s BMW 3-series, for example.)
