After a slight pause, I got around to put some more car pics from the parade and gathering event. This one's for the German fans :-)

Beautiful car!

Great shots.    That's a classic Mercedes for sure.

Can't have a car show without food trucks.

Thanks :-) It sure is a classic. There were some food stands at the event, but can't remember if there were any food trucks there. At least I don't remember seeing one.

Cool ride, HGDC. Thanks for sharing this with us. Wish you have a wonderful day ahead!

Now thats in beautiful condition.   Great shots HGDC.

That's a great car!

Oh WoW! What a beautiful piece of machinery

Yeah, there actually were some. I'll see my photos and see if I happen to have some of those in the pics. :-)

I'll bear that in mind when selecting the next batch for upload if I happen to have them ;-)

Especially the Amazone.

That might be one of the best-looking Volvo models

I totally agree.
And very very durable.

You are right and I stand corrected.  No trucks but plenty of stands.

I bet he keeps that under cover for sure.  

A magnificent example of the marque.

I certainly would if I had one in such a pristine condition :-)

It's not a design that appeals to me, but you can't help admiring the way it has been maintained.

I see how people have different tastes in designs of cars, but we can certainly agree on the quality of maintenance.

This is my dream car - a 1976 Triumph Stag.   Maybe one day.........

Wouldn't mind having one of those either But for me, the #1 spot goes to Ferrari. Hard to say which one though, too many great options to choose from

I've got to say that's a familiar problem for me too. So far, I've just had to settle for the model kit and die-cast versions

Here's one I've had my eye on for a while, a restorstion project resting/rusting in a nearby barn

With the harsh Finland winter weather he must keep it someone nice and warm.

Looks like that could become a real beauty after a little of restoration :-)

Yes, having a proper dry and warm storage for a hobby car project is pretty much a must. Even though some winters in Finland have been somewhat mild lately, reminiscent of more of autumn than real winter.
