"Classic Cars Conquer the Edinburgh Trial: A Glimpse into the Historic Race of 1938" Step back in time to the thrilling MCC Edinburgh Trial of 1938, where a variety of iconic vehicles showcased their power and endurance. Among them was the formidable Ford Model C Ten, driven by J Whalley, as it roared through Roxburghshire, Scotland. The Morgan 3-wheeler piloted by HEG Cox also made its mark on this challenging course. The competition intensified with GEH Godber-Ford's AJW motorcycle, boasting an impressive 490 cc engine. GR Walling pushed boundaries with his nimble Ariel motorcycle, while F Gooding fearlessly maneuvered another Ariel with a smaller yet equally spirited 347 cc engine. Not to be outdone, PK Potter showcased the reliability and strength of his Morris Twelve throughout this grueling trial. EB Wadsworth commanded attention with his Frazer-Nash BMW as LP Jaques skillfully handled an AC vehicle. JES Jones represented the Cream Cracker team proudly behind the wheel of an MG TA sports car. Meanwhile, J Eason-Gibson wowed spectators at the VSCC Croydon Speed Trials in his racing special version of Ford Model LL Morgan demonstrated exceptional driving skills during South Wales Auto Club Welsh Rally in another Ford Model C Ten. And let us not forget J McEvoy's daring performance in a Ford 10 tourer during the MCC Sporting Trial captured brilliantly by artist Bill Brunell back in 1935. These remarkable machines etched their names into history as they conquered treacherous terrains and thrilled audiences with their speed and agility. The spirit of adventure permeated every turn and twist along these Scottish roads—a testament to both man and machine pushing limits beyond imagination.
