sidevalvepete Posted January 21, 2022 Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 The last few days has seen the region where I live host a vintage car rally. It is a bit more of a big deal than just a rally really but probably pales in comparison to many other overseas events. It is an international rally that is open to entrants from around the world. First held in 1966 and I think at 5 yearly intervals since. People have shipped their vehicles from around the world to join the rally for the 5 - 7 days and then stay on and do the tourist thing for weeks or months after, often hosted by fellow car buffs around the country. Some just come without their cars and drive borrowed vehicles from local enthusiasts. Lifetime friendships are made at events like this. Covid postponed the event last year and has also largely removed the overseas entrants through border closures etc. Therefore it is largely an Enzed affair this year, hosted by the local vintage car club. I think between 400 - 500 vehicles participated, all marques, from very early 20th century to the "modern" vintage vehicles. Most of the cars spent a few hours parked up on display to the public in my local town yesterday. Below are a few photos of the mopar related rides. I have stuck to etiquette. Non mopar are in the Other Topics forum. There were way morevehiclesthan what I've posted. I had hoped to participate myself but things have slowed somewhat in my build and it's not finished. Had a few health problems and doing some chemo for a few months. Not terminal yet ( well we all are really aren't we? ) so aiming for more time on the farm and the tools yet. Thoroughly enjoyed looking at the cars but was worn out and didn't have the puff to take more pics than what you see here and in the Other Topics page. Hope you enjoy....some cool cars...39 DeSoto 29 Chrysler 27 Chrysler 38 Chrysler 30 Chrysler 7737 Dodge Coupe 29 DB Dodge Coupe 38 DeSoto57 Chrysler Royal23 Dodge 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
