The organizers of the Leyland National 51 bus event in Whitehaven this year are looking for people to get involved. 

They are asking anyone with a vintage car, preferably from the 70s, if they would like to show their car at the event this April.

The event will take place on April 29 and April 30. 

Gerard Richardson MBE DL said: "Last year's Leyland 50 event was fabulous and right out of the blue and this year promises to be even bigger and better and there’s nothing quite like taking part if you can.

"The plan is to host vintage cars along the Sugar Tongue which in itself is a great venue. We had the touring Bentley club on there a few years back and it's a great stage for classic vehicles."

If you would like to participate with your car, motorbike, lorry, or any other type of vehicle, please contact Mike Morton via the Leyland51 team or email gerard@richardsonsoffice.net
