Better weather than last year brought out more than 200 cars, vans, and motorbikes for Masons & Motors ’24 at Doddington Hall near Lincoln to add more than £1,000 to the #Lincs2025 Festival total – and what an eclectic mix they were!
And that total was boosted through the work of Simon Butler selling raffle tickets
From near-extinct ‘home grown’ family saloons like the Morris 1800 ‘Landcrab’ and a Maestro (remember those?), to American muscle cars the length of baby battleships, they were all there, with fanciful other vehicle in between.
How about a BMW-powered motorcycle that might have been a helicopter, as junior members to the crowd speculated, or custom vans, classic British sportscars, and even a Tuk-Tuk, in leopard-print bodywork and driven all the way from Stamford.
The event is the brainchild of Scunthorpe Freemason Dave Gibson, who said: “Thanks to everyone for attending and those who acted as stewards to make it all run smoothly. We had at least 180 vehicles, which made for a great day in great weather.” He was also grateful for the team at Doddington Hall, who’d allowed us to use their venue. Said Dave: “It’s a great central location for the Province, and I’d like to thank the Doddington Hall team for pr0viding a backdrop for what’s now become an annual event.”
NEXT YEAR’S EVENT is already booked: July 20th, 2025
