2018 Independence Drive: The Classic Cars That Graced Event (Photos) by autojosh: 7:05pm On Oct 04, 2018 |
October 1, 2018, Nigeria’s 58th Independence Day has come and gone. Interestingly, that day left some pleasant memories in the minds some car enthusiasts who graced the 2018 Independence Day Drive. The Independence Day Drive is a parade of some classic cars. Prior to the event, Autojosh had predicted that the event is one that car enthusiasts would hate to miss. True to our prediction, the event turned out to be an awesome experience. The 2018 independence Drive was organized by The Classic Car Club of Nigeria. It was done in partnership with GRILLS2GRILSS. It took place on 1st October, 2018. The Independence drive kicked off from Bay Lounge in Lekki around 12 noon. All the classic cars that graced the event converged at the Lounge and several people walked around them in admiration. As stated earlier, the drive took some specific routes through the city of Lagos. 1977 MG MIDGET 1500: The MG Midget is a small two-seater sports car that was produced by MG from 1961 to 1979. The first version was essentially a slightly more expensive version of the MKII Austin-Healey Sprite. To meet US Federal regulations, large black plastic bumpers (usually called rubber bumpers, despite not actually being rubber) were added to the front and rear and the ride height was increase. Increased output combined with taller gear rations resulted in faster acceleration (0-60 in 12 seconds compared to 13 for the 1275 cc version) and top speed of over 100 mph. 1964 MORRIS MINOR: The Morris Minor is a British car that debuted at the Earls Court Motor Show, London, 20th September 1948. Designed under the leadership of Alec Issigonis, more than 1.3 million were manufactured between 1948 and 1972 in three series: the MM (1948), the Series II (1952) and finally the 1000 series (1956). At the onset, the cars were only available as two door saloons and tourers (convertibles) but the car’s range was expanded to include a four-door saloon in 1950. A wood-framed estate (the Traveller), was added from October 1953 and panel van and pick up truck variants from May 1953. VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE: Popularly known as Ijapa (Tortoise) here in Nigeria, the Volkswagen Beetle was one of the most desired vehicle in its time. The production of the VW Beetle spanned from 1938-2018 and a total of 21,529,464 were already built as at 2003. Tiger Avon: This is a kit car from Tiger Racing which can be fitted with a number of easily available engine options. This Tiger Avon is Tiger’s entry level model. 1966 FORD MUSTANG: The 1966 Ford Mustang is one of the most popular Mustang in the history of the Ford Mustang. It is in the first generation of Ford Mustang. The popularity of this Ford Mustang gave it much significance in the classic era.

Nice... good to see some enthusiasts coming out. I love classic cars, just that they are hard to take care of here in Nigeria (parts, harsh weather). I'm trying to save up for either '72 corvette or a replica Shelby Cobra 2 Likes

Trexnemesis: Bros, if I had that kind of money, the car would be only used on Island or Abuja, and I would have a Highlander or something for those village trips. If you see the kind of red swimming pools we have in Delta during rainy seasons, fear will catch you to use mustang. 2 Likes |
