Motorskou 19 Junie 2010

Die motorskou was 'n groot sukses! Dankie, Vryheid en al die ander mense wat kom kyk het na die motors, enjins, plaasimplemente, trekkers en motorfietse. Dankie ook aan al die motorklubs wat hier verteenwoordig is. Die Volvo Klub het met omtrent 40 motors hier aangekom! Daar was ook 'n hele paar mense wat privaat kom uitstal het. Baie dankie. Aan die kommittee en al die lede van die Vryheid Vintage Car Club, julle het 'n wonderlike taak verrig! En sonder julle en die vrywilligers wat reggestaan het sou die skou beslis nie so 'n sukses gewees het nie.

The Vryheid Car Show
The Vryheid Vintage Car Club hosted their first car show in 2004. The club consisted of 42 members who were very proud to be able to exhibit about 85 vehicles. Every year the show has grown by leaps and bounds, and last year saw a record amount of vintage and classic cars being displayed, this together with the introduction of hotrods, motorbikes, tractors, implements and stationary engines. There were in excess of 250 exhibits!
Vanjaar bied ons die sewende jaarlikse motorskou in Vryheid aan. Verreweg die grootste motorskou in Noord KZN! Hiermee 'n hartlike uitnodiging aan enige persoon wat 'n veteraan/klassieke/eksotiese motor, hotrod, veteraan trekker, enjin of motorfiets besit om te kom uitstal. Bring die hele gesin saam en kom geniet die dag saam met ons. Sodoende kan ons ons erfenis aan die jeug wys.

Uitstappie na Pongola (Johan en Anna Horn) - 20 Maart 2010

Uitstappie na Pongola (Die Horns)

Saterdagoggend, 20 Maart 2010 het die volgende lede die pad gevat Pongola toe: Gordon en Elise, Harvie en Madeleen, Cassie en 'n vriend, Alfie en Ria, Dirk en Fred, Albie en Joan, Allan en Meryl, Des en Wendy, Dirkie en 'n vriend, Nico en Nolene, Piet en Annetjie, Jan en Drieka en Lawrence en Cappy.

Johan and Anna Horn are sugar cane farmers. Anna also runs a small nursery and cultivates numerous succulents.
Toe ons daar aankom, is ons verwelkom met heerlike tee en koek. Johan en Anna het 'n pragtige, ruim "onthaalplekkie" aan hul huis. Met die lugverkoeler het almal lekker uitgespan voordat Johan ons na sy enjins toe geneem het.

We were in for a pleasant surprise! What started off as "scrap" as depicted in the image above ended up as show pieces after Johan had restored them!

Johan het ongeveer vyf jaar gelede begin om die enjins te restoureer en op die oomblik is daar omtrent 12 of 13 wat herbou is. Hierbo is hy juis besig om een van hulle aan die gang te sit! Johan takes great pride in his engines and speaks with passion when he tells you about them. One or two of these engines date back to 1909!

Nuut gerestoureer en kyk net hoe goed lyk hulle! Hierdie enjins werk almal! Absolute meesterstukke! Hierbo is van die enjins wat uitgestal word op skoue.

Another restored engine. Alfie and Ria looking on in amazement.

Die Ford Model A (in die foto hierbo) is nog een van Johan se projekte. Hy is besig om hierdie motor te herstel, en is van plan om hom uit te stal by Cars in the Park in Pietermaritzburg in Mei vanjaar.
Thank you, Johan and Anna, for your hospitality. You made us all feel so welcome. Anna and Elize Duvenhage went out of their way to accomodate us.
