Veteran Cars & Vehicles, a set on Flickr.
In July I accidentally popped in to an event which definetly was one of the highlights of the summer. It is not often you see almost 800 veteran cars gathered to the same place. I was going to visit Vääksy channel, and I got to see one of the greatest and finest car shows I've seen in my life.The regional veteran car club in Tavastia arranged its annual car meet in Vääksy channel area in July. And what a meeting it was! 800+ gorgeous and well-kept cars spread all over the area - sportscar, buses, lorries, motorbikes and normal classic family cars serving the whole spectre of the vehicles to us. Not only presenting the old American automobiles but also showing a great deal of the classic European cars from 1960's Volvos to 1970's Renault's and Alfa Romeos.
And special thanks to the arrangers. Many Finnish summer festivals and happenings have nowdays beer tents all over the place. To this happening alcohol was not allowed and the athmosphere was relaxed and cosy.
If you happen to plan your visit to Vääksy next summer, find out the date of the gathering. It is definetly worth visiting - and what's better environment to see the cars than outdoors. Usually car shows are inside the exhibition centres but cars are made for the outdoors.
Here's my photo cavalcade of the car show. Enjoy! Photos are best enjoyed in my Flickr set.
