I think this is the same one I posted a few months ago but this is a better pic and a front view:


Registered March 2014.

Also saw a green Lotus Elan M100 but couldn't get a picture of that one.

Yesterday I saw hundreds, even thousands of mainly interesting cars, at my most favourite event

http://oldtimermarkt-bockhorn.com/impressionen-103.html

The upload of the pics will need some time, as I made over 250 photos - until the accus of camera and mobile phone are gone.
The exhausted accu have caused, that a pic of one of the very very few Rootes crap clunkers wasn't possible any more, from a very shiny Chrysler 2 Litres.

I think, the most pics I'll show at the car-event-thread besides, but some impressions, I'll put here.

The first pic of the day, shot a few km before I reached the location (as usual as one of the first participants -driver of pre-1980 vehicles- on the early Saturday morning at 7:15. I always want to part on my usual spot, and just half an hour later, the classic car traffic will be annoying thick and you have to wait for the entry and don't have the chance to park on your favourite places.





I've decided to place here the "Camping" special compilation. Serioulsy, these are only the motifs, I've spotted directly on the ground. I've not been on the extra exhibitors-campground, nor on the visitors parking. It would have bee too much!
And I've only the IMO most unusual sights and have dropped the uncountable masses of classic, but mundane campers and camping trailers.
Everything, you see now, was used for sleeping in by the drivers
There are many more, but here I found evidences as beddings - or sleeping people.



































Original Westfalia:


























































The trailer is new:




Here I talked a bit with annother visitor, who rummaged "Hmm, seems to be a Belgian car. Oldsmobile is very popular in Belgium. There are even garages and wreckers, specialized in Oldsmobile"
I relplied:
"The coachwork looks Italian to me due its style and on one side window was written "temperata"
The he noticed the badge in the front grille, so we have seen, that the car was assembled in Biel/Switzerland.
But about the Hearse-coachwork I'm still unsure about its origin.


























When I looked for the manufacturers badge, the owner told me, that tha basis is a Belgian "Constructam", but only the chassis and the lower frame are original, anything else is rebuilt by himself.
Then the said "That one, 20 meters ahead, is an original Constructam"










Am I right, that this piece of Rootes crap has towed annother Constructam?

The different taillights are irritating me. Those of the tailer above, with the HH-plate from Hamburg, seem to be DDR-made. These are the common DDR-allround-taillights, used for a plenty of different trailers, trucks, motorbikes and construction vehicles.







Here I had to smile and to think at my DPRK-trip




as it reminds me to the quite popular (to see in any report or blog about Northkorea, because always parking at the same junction in Pyongyang.

A propos Pyongyang: this -still used- TV-truck of KCTV

is on the same base -and most probable in the same age- as




Two more from my mobile phone, made after the camera-accu was gone:

sleeping in a hearse...this must be for when you're dead tired and need to rest in peace....

Now an extra posting for the vehicles, which were offered in Bockhorn for sale.

They are located on one separate area nearby the main entrance. No, not all classic vehicles, appearing at that event were for sale! This was a discussion between a visitor-couple "I think, not all of them are for sale here. No; I don't believe that"

Seen in a grocery store parking lot today. According to Wikipedia, it would be 1957-1962 . they also say that they had minor changes for 1959 but i'm not sure if this one belongs to the 1st or 2nd series.

Triumph TR3




The RPM gauge sure don't look original....

It's a 57-62 TR3A. As far as I know the 59 changes were hidden and had no external signs apart from windscreen bolts. Or it's the very rare 1962 export only TR3B, which again had no clues.

Thanks dsl

seen today.... sorry for the quality of the pic ( yeah, my windshield needs to meet some window cleaner but i can't do nothing about dashboard reflection... )

1981-1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme


and this one : 1964 Buick Wildcat


This pic is actually the 2nd one i took. I have one of the rear but it came out horrible... ( way worse than the Olds one , almost all the dashboard reflects on it ) . I'll post it if asked but you don't miss that much....

From the Dashcam...

Porsche 550 (Replica? Probably, but can't say for sure.)


A not-entirely-tastelessly-modified sedan. I think it's a Toyota Cressida [MX83] but I'm not entirely sure.


1970+ Chevrolet Camaro out for a drive in the rain


Alfa Romeo Spider


There is a large Salvadoran population in the area, but most aren't quite so expressive about it...


Someone in the office parking garage has a 1964 Corvette.

One weekend last month, we were driving through Waynesboro and passed a local car show. Not in a hurry, we turned around and checked it out. It was a Good Decision.

Some highlights:

I gravitated immediately to this 1966 Dodge Monaco 500. I love these big Dodges:


1965 Rambler Marlin:


1951 Hudson Commodore 6:


1931 Willys-Knight 66D:


1933 Franklin Olympic:


Rat Rod (possibly based on a Diamond T?):


1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302:

1955 Chevrolet unknown



1969-72 Chevrolet Nova SS



unknown

I'm pretty sure that license plate is telling you the year on that Nova.

"Unknown" is a 1963 Mercury Monterey Custom Breezeway.

D'oh! Never payed any attention to the plate.



Nice.

When we're car fanatics and have some free time, its always a good decision to stop in those events..


Like that Rat Rod Sticker..

That is 1955 Chevrolet One-Fifty Handyman



1969 model year only.

Ah thank you. Chevrolet made so many station wagons that year, I couldn't figure out which one it was.

Saw these cars while on a walk today.

1982-85 Chrysler LeBaron


1973-75 Plymouth Duster?


and this beautiful 1972-73 Dodge Dart

The LeBaron is in fact a 1988-1991 Chrysler New Yorker

We're not that used to see them with the headlight doors open...

The Dart is a 1969
