I just went on a great classic car rally. This is the car version of the Moto Melee which I went on in June. The roads are just amazing here in Northern California, they are just perfect for bombing a bunch of old cars through the twisties. This year there were over 70 old jalopies which made the run. There was everything from a Ferarri Dino down to a beater Opel Kadett, and just about everything in between. The rally takes three days, and covers around a thousand miles, so the old cars get a real workout.
We rolled in the '66 Benz, which thankfully did just fine. It is a bit of a heavy car for some of the crazy corners that the route winds through, but otherwise was a good car for the Melee. I'm putting the old girl up for sale, so if you know anyone who wants a sweet vintage ride, send them my way. Here are some pictures (the first two were taken by Craig, and the others by me), the last picture is a link to a "collection" of pictures.
This is probably one of the coolest things I've seen in awhile. Some dude in France built a trailer for his vintage Lambretta scooter. The trailer matches his bug, and is made with bug rear fenders and bug wheels. It is so well done, really tasteful. Daddy likes!
