Author: Bristol Owners Heritage Trust
In 2007 the Bristol Owners Heritage Trust was established as a registered charity in order to document, preserve and conserve the history of the Bristol Car. Our principle aim is to create the primary repository of Bristol Cars related material in the World, accessible to as wide an audience as possible, by:
- Collecting advertising material, factory and other workshop manuals, books, publicity material, all other printed and photographic material.
- Filming video interviews with people directly connected to the design, manufacture, sales and racing of the cars.
- Providing a safe haven for all time.
- Covering all periods of operations.
- Cataloguing the existing archive.
- Making the Catalogue Index accessible via website.
- Providing an Archivist with time, capability and interest to support the collection.
- Providing free access to BOC/BODA/BOHT members on request.
- Acquiring trophies, works of art, engineering items and other artefacts.
- Securing museum space to display key artefacts.
