Title: Classic Car Festival pictures Post by: Arrrhalomynn on August 14, 2004, 07:58:33 AM In an attempt to sell our old mini and entertain ourselves, my dad and I went to the Classic Car Festival (http://www.classiccarfestival.com) on the circuit in Assen. About an hour driving from my place. Since there are some car enthousiasts here, I figured some of you might be interested in the pictures.

Title: Re: Classic Car Festival pictures Post by: shadytool on August 14, 2004, 08:38:30 AM those are some cool pics arrr.
did you sell the mini? btw, i have never even heard of most of those cars :P Title: Re: Classic Car Festival pictures Post by: Arrrhalomynn on August 14, 2004, 08:42:57 AM Nope, we didn't sell it. There weren't that many people, so we decided to leave after a few hours. We did get in contact with some guy that sells mini's though. Maybe he can send some interested buyers our way.
Title: Re: Classic Car Festival pictures Post by: Sauza12 on August 14, 2004, 11:13:07 PM One of the cool things about living in Detroit is that we have shows like this constantly. Next weekend is the Woodward dream cruise. It's basically where a bunch of old asses drive around in thier hyper sweet cars. Look it up on the web and you should see some nice pics.
Title: Re: Classic Car Festival pictures Post by: Sauza12 on August 14, 2004, 11:21:36 PM Ehhh, screw it Here is some stuff for you guys.
Here is some stuff about the cruise itself: http://www.woodwarddreamcruise.com/2003/history.html And here is a link to some pics: http://detroit.about.com/cs/automotive/a/dreamcruisepho.htm Title: Re: Classic Car Festival pictures Post by: Izret101 on August 15, 2004, 08:56:01 AM Sweet cars. I was going to go to a car show yesterday too...but i got my NES stuff instead. Not much of a trade off. i would of like to have gone.
I like alot of the vintage cars they just look better than the ones from the late 80s and 90s and todays cars are to expensive for me. Title: Re: Classic Car Festival pictures Post by: Arrrhalomynn on August 15, 2004, 09:03:56 AM I just realized Rapter is Rapier.
Title: Re: Classic Car Festival pictures Post by: jonlester on August 15, 2004, 01:09:11 PM Is your dad's car an early 80's model? It looks like the Espirits I remember being out in those times but I really haven't followed the progression since then.
Title: Re: Classic Car Festival pictures Post by: Arrrhalomynn on August 15, 2004, 01:10:15 PM It's from 1982.
