It was a two day event at a castle nearby but we missed most of it. They even had vintage planes doing flybys. Still, it was impressive enough. Try to spot the Fiero :-)

The castle:

Enzo Ferrari just called and is going to sue you.

Well not really, because I'm not sure if that is a Ferrari and Enzo passed away a long time ago.

Thanks Yellowstone for those pics. It is so completely different from an American show where all you see are Camaros, Mustangs, and T-buckets.

i was just thinking that, you can tell that show was not in the US.

I donno about that, Its just not like the common shows. concourse shows in america are very similar to that. the cincinnati concourse was like that, minus the castle :P

wait til pebble beach on the 19th. I did design work for a car that is going, we are hoping it will compete for best of show.

These photos make me want to move back to Germany.

Yeah, the ones in CA they wear suits and black ties, hehe.

I might be able to afford this car; second though...nope. Too rich for my pockets.

Hold-up; somebody is knocking at my door. Actually I got the idea from the Pontica GTO. I just reversed mine.

A small clip of cars waiting to leave the show grounds, including a Ford GT 40...

What on earth is that?

I think it said it was an Alfa Romeo of which only 402 were made...

quote Originally posted by Jax184: What on earth is that?

Maybe there are shows like that in the US, just not the ones I go to...

I only recognized a handful of the non-american cars.

quote Originally posted by yellowstone:

What are these?

That show looked like a great show.

Yo, Yellowstone.....IS that an Audi parked next to you (the white coupe) and, if so, what model and year? I don't think I've ever seen one before.

Those are Opel GTs. Great little cars if you can find one in good shape in the US. They handle like gokarts and can "point-and-squirt" with enthusiasm!

cool thanks, the one i saw was hella mint and im in canada. very very nice car had a matching trailor

This is a pair of Opel Speedsters, based on the Lotus Elise and now superseded by the new Opel GT, based on the Saturn Sky.

I may be strange...but that orange Opel GT was one of my favorites out of all the pic posted.

And how about the luck...they stick you in between an awesome classic DKW and a big block Cobra.

Great pics! Love the Volvo behind the blurry Ferrari, the bus and the Bugatti Atlantic. I saw a Fiat Spider in one of the shots. What do you think of those?


We had Meadowbrook Concours d'elegance this weekend that I missed. The Alfa B.A.T. cars were there as well as a Bugatti Royale.
Meadow Brook Hall is the fourth largest historic house museum in the United States and is especially renowned for its superb craftsmanship, architectural detailing and grand scale. Built between 1926 and 1929 as the residence of Matilda Dodge Wilson (widow of auto pioneer John Dodge) and her second husband, lumber broker Alfred G. Wilson, the 110-room, 88,000-square-foot, Tudor-revival style mansion is complete with vast collections of original art and furnishings.

The Volvo P1800 coupe is one of my favourite classic cars, too.

Damn you guys have nice car shows. We don't have anything remotely like that here. I suppose the lack of ancient castles doesn't help.

A couple of years ago a lot of people hoped the Speedster would be inported into the US...but the opposite happened, the Sky is being exported as the new Speedster.

.. nice show, lots of nice cars that I haven't seen of in a long time!

They were! I was just getting out of high school when they came out, I always thought they were pretty cool! The only bad thing was that they quickly became rust buckets after just a few midwestern winters. Probably why you don't see many around today.

Love the Opel GT's. Dont see many of those round these parts.
Here is a couple shots of my Dads opel GT. At one point it was fully modified for Ice Racing in Alaska. Its dirty right now and in street trim only holds a 400. hehe, only. 2800lbs, 700 on each wheel without driver. There is an custom gas tank to balance the weight. Custom widebody, roll bar, vette brakes, ect. The list goes on but only dad knows ALL the details.

It will walk from any fiero I've ever driven, in the corners or the straights. I know there are some out there, I just have yet to find or build one. The aerodynamics keep it ahead of the pack too.









EDIT: Sorry bout the crappy pics. My photo program died tonight and I am trying out a new resizing program. So far I like it and its free here.

Very nice.... Thanks for sharing! Love the Audi Quatro & the Opel Speedsters. To bad the Speedsters never made it to the states... Would have made the prefect Fiero reincarnation (Lotus suspension & Ecotec mid-engine)...

i love the front bumper on the far one

Cool, let me know which one it is. I might go there, since it just a few miles from where I live...

Bump for a must see thread.

Yellostone: Thanks for all the pics!
