Old car show in France

[sebastienbuick]

Hello, this weekend I'm going to a small car show not very far from home.
The exhibition this pass to the south of France (Castelsarasin) in a replica of American / western restaurant.
This restaurant is called '' le felix ''
I go with a friend who owns a 1969 Cadillac Eldorado, my brother with a 205 gti 1.6 and my godfather with a renault 5 alpine turbo.

Thanks for showing those photos!!

 

Most interesting are some the American cars which were sold new there; most notably, the 1959 Chevrolet and the later Chrysler 300C Touring.  The 300C Touring was only marketed as a Dodge Magnum in the US & Canada.

Thank you! I wouldn't mind that white Renault van or any of the Traction Avants. I am also grateful for the pictures of the '55 2cv. As I've stated before, you have been a tremendous help in my ongoing research as I try to get my '58 2CV van on the road.

At over $5.50 a gallon for gas over there you guys must be pretty serious about your cars....... 

That tricked out '59 Chevrolet Impala is a thing of beauty........ 

[sebastienbuick]

In France the full of gasoline does not per gallon but per liter, for example the gasoil is a 1.23 EURO the Liter and for gasoline it is a 1.30 Euros the liter ;).
Yes i love this chevrolet impala

[cahartley]

LOL........I did the math.

As mentioned above it's interesting to see so many signs in English.........our Old West must have some attraction for the French........ 

[sebastienbuick]

Yes this is well appreciated in France
