True Classic
Well, many events conspired to derail my plans this year.
The Buick tow rig and the Otas still needed too much sorting and the 131 needs some suspension work. I took my VW TDI. First time in 15 trips I have ever taken a 'normal' car.
I took my Dad to his first Carlisle this year and caravaned with our Irish friend Jim Magil. Jim borrowed a Brabus Smart Roadster from the Lane Museum for his vacation in the U.S.
Not a lot of space in the Smart.
We made it with no issues.
The Smart got 58mpg and the TDI got 48. THe smart has a 5 gallon tank so we did have to stop a couple of times. The TDI went down (500 miles) and 130 miles back on week old Diesel.
Cars in the camping area are always interesting.
Buddy Ryan with his new MZ and Vt beer.
Jim discussing the horrors of American driving.
Asian cars were featured.
You never know what will be in the for sale section.
There is still good stuff coming out of hidden warehouses.
The show field.
These two Civics had the K20 motor. This one claimed over 400 hp!
This was a tastefully done Topo hot rod.
This had me fooled. It's a Triumph.
Fewer 'I' cars this year, but the quality was there.
This was a bit kludge.
LT-1 V8
Good French turn out.
One Russian car.
See you next year!
