Uncle-Pekka Posted October 5, 2014 Report Posted October 5, 2014 It's been a sunny September, but in October weather is bound to rot away here up North. Yesterday it was the last big cruise night in Lahti -town, some 50 miles north from Helsinki. Unfortunately I had to store my cars for winter already a couple of weeks ago, thus I was not driving here. However, please enjoy some of my favourite picks from Lahti: 6 Quote

Uncle-Pekka Posted October 6, 2014 Author Report Posted October 6, 2014 Chrysler with side mounts! classy Sorry to break your heart Mark, but I recall she's running on ford V8 & gear... Sort of "rodded"... I may be old fart, but somehow I find it hard to understand, what there is to gain to put "a hot V8" into such majestetic war time cruiser? But yeah the body is gorgeous - would be fun to find the straight 8 and fluid drive for re-fit. Cheers, Pekka 2 Quote
pflaming Posted October 6, 2014 Report Posted October 6, 2014 Many won't think twice about putting in a modern engine but can't seem to understand that there isn't much difference between a V8 swap and a modern paint job. Love the patina vehicles, they have character. Quote
Don Coatney Posted October 6, 2014 Report Posted October 6, 2014 Thing is a vehicle with patina is not an old paint job that has been sanded and doctored. This vehicle has patina. This vehicle does not. 1 Quote
