Oldtimer show

First,  I am not at all interested in cars, don't know any names of them but at the Oldtimer show in a shopping mall in our city Almere yesterday, I was impressed by this one. I call it a "Elvis" car, so huge and wide.

There were some pretty old special cars to see.

Some owners had adapted their clothes to the history of their car.

Others had made a romantic interior.

But my all time favourite is the only car I know by name the Citroen, Traction avant Sport from 1954. I remember these riding in the streets in Amsterdam when I was a child.

  4. What I love is seeing them all being driven into town to be put onto display. That is really magical. These are beauties.

  5. The first one, a Cadillac, goes back to when gas was not a problem. Just build them big and gaudy. Real Detroit iron there.

  8. Americans are crazy about their cars and vintage car shows always draw huge crowds. Just give me a convertible sportscar and I will be happy.

  11. I see "Citroen" has been changed to "lemon" - a capital letter must be needed!
