Stars & Stripes
Classic American Car Show Tatton Park 2021
Muddy Madam here, and I have a confession - I'm not a major fan of being dragged around 4x4 car shows. I know, I know, in this magazine that is tantamount to sacrilege, but you see I don't have the love that Damian does for all things big, and usually muddy, but when it comes to unsual motors and cool chromed Yank-mobiles, well that's a different matter, so when I spotted this show was actually on I was eager to go despite the threat of heavy, thundery storms over the weekend.
Tatton Stars & Stripes is a huge show that's been running for more than 30 years which celebrates all things American, from Mustangs to ex-US Army vehicles from pretty much every decade.
Damian and I hedged our bets that Saturday would be the least wet, and as we made our way to Tatton park, near Knutsford - we were right!
As we parked up, sporadic bursts of V8 loveliness sprung to life and bellowed through the grounds, it stirred the soul giving me a warm fuzzy feeling - Muddy Madam just smiled that knowing smile back at me, essentially understanding she would lose me to the draw of the delightful rumbles.
I'll let Damian tell you more....

When it comes top writing about it, it’s really difficult knowing where to begin because, from customised hot rods to pumped-up pickups and even a variety of US motorcycles, the show had everything, including quite a few rarities and vehicles that I’d never seen in the flesh before.
