On Yorkshire Day, 1st August, the National Motor Museum went on the road for the first time and partnered with the Bowcliffe Drivers Club to showcase the work and aspirations of the oldest and best known car museum established by Lord Montagu.
The Masters of Motoring 2024 Concours included many unique and rare cars and Alvis was represented. Being shown for the very first time was the “Gloworm Special” based on a Firefly.
Owner Thomas Martin discusses the finer details of the project with Gary Pellow – Trevor Hirst, Tim Walker, Bicester Heritage apprentices and Richard Geater were all involved with a custom design and a Speed 20 engine.
Three other Alvis complemented the Firefly and the gallery below includes some of the other entrants. Click photos for full resolution.

Good news that the Beaulieu collection was willing to go ‘on the road’ and enhance this fine display.
Might this be the beginning of an outreach programme?
