Click Reliant butts for gallery. Definitely one of the coolest car shows I've ever been to. There were lots of people but spread out enough to see everything, a wide variety of cars, $20 chicken tenders, fantastic weather. The parking lot was a mini car show on its own before we even got in the gates. The drive up from Annapolis (about 1h45m) was wonderfully uneventful. I already can't wait to go next year. Imgur has been dogshit at letting me upload images so if there aren't 100+ pictures in there, I can post a link to the Facebook gallery but I know a lot of people don't use that anymore.

I'm not joking when I say those might be the nicest K-cars left on the planet

From the saab thread. I thought the old cop saabs we used to have in Finland where pretty cool

That's a 99 Turbo as a cop car yes. They required the driver to complete a course before being allowed to drive it.

I miss Saab. My first girlfriend had a 900 and I blew up 2nd trying to race it. She wasn’t too happy about that

Spotted a vintage Mercedes somebody's clearly taking good care of.

Yes, yes it is. My boyfriend definitely did a double take when he saw it, it's such an unusual swap. He has a 2000 Pontiac GTP with the same supercharged engine so he was pretty excited about it too.

Frank Kleinig in his Hudson at Rob Roy 1947.



Edit:

Another view of Frank Kleinig's special #41 on the same day at the Rob Roy Hillclimb : Reg Nutt photo album : "Zeunert Motorsport Archive" : D.Z.



Edit, on an MG chassis,

The KH straight-8 Hudson side valve engine had four Amal carbs feeding eight cylinders, head- still side-valve cast by Frank Kleinig and his water injection system. The rail above the carb bell mouths carries water not fuel. Chromium plated exhausts are ‘up and over’ to get them away from induction side apparatus.

Same with the 456 which is a great looking car. I guess both were the more understated models of the time so didn't get as much Rosso Corsa
