This car took part in the Lancashire Automobile Club's Manchester to Blackpool Veteran and Vintage Car Run in May 1987 and is pictured before the start of the Run in the Exchange Station car park in Manchester.
It's the 1912 Clément-Bayard 8hp entered by Hilda Moores of Denton, and the programme of the event had the following information about the vehicle:
1912 Clément-Bayard,
Reg: DS 7523 2 Cylinder 8 hp
(Hilda Moores, Denton, Manchester)
This two-seater was discovered derelict in 1984
and restoration is almost complete. The marque
competed in many early Grands Prix. A first for
the Manchester to Blackpool Run.
On 7 May 2017 I showed a photograph of a Clément-Bayard that I had taken at Oulton Park in 1992.
