***Mühldorfer Classic Car Show (Part 1)*** (56K Warning)

[cawimmer430]

There was a car show in Mühldorf last Sunday. I took over 650 pictures and I will post them in batches of around 40 pictures per thread. I'll post Part I today and Part II tomorrow since I've had a long hard day in Munich and need to take a break. Enjoy the pics.



Classic BMW 1602's or 2002's. I always confuse these...


An Opel Kapitän, from the days when Opel's were still considered premium.


Classic Volvo 140 or 240 series and a lovely Opel Manta A.


Fiat Topolino C with 16-horsepower. My father had an NSU-Fiat Topolino A with 13-horsepower as his first car. Guess what? My father's Fiat Topolino was at this same show!!! Pictures of that car in Part 3...


Chevrolet Pickup Truck


All I saw was the Plymouth writing upfront. The rear or sides had no identification whatsoever. What Plymouth is this?


Chrysler 300. Not sure if it's an A, B, C, D, E etc.


Opel Rekord


Two of my favorite Mercedes cars next to each other! An S123 estate and a W116 450SE S-Class! Love the W116 S-Class!









BMW 700. 700cc 2-cylinder engine with around 45-horsepower. After my father sold his Fiat Topolino, he bought a used BMW 700 but had the engine tuned to about 55-60-horsepower. Sadly this careless tuning affected the reliability of the engine and the car broke down at least once a week! LOL



1966 Pontiac Parisienne. Beautiful. My mother's father worked for GM and he had a 1967 Parisienne in white.







Pontiac Parisienne and a VW Thing next to it.


Dodge Charger. I am guessing this is an early 1960s version, right?


Chevrolet Bel Air


Iso Rivolta, a car from Italy. Not sure what this one was called though. All I know is that it's an Iso Rivolta.



Ford Thunderbird







Anyone know the car on the right???



This is a pre-World War II Mercedes-Benz. My best guess is that this is a variant of the W136 170V models.






Classic Renault T4. She may be ugly, but she's a legend.



Opel Olympia, I would guess...



Audi 100S Coupe and Opel Commodore. Love the Audi, beautiful.







Mercedes-Benz W115 220D with 60-horsepower as used by the Bavarian government.





Mercedes W113 Pagoda SL with a Lloyd next to it. Lloyd was a German carmaker that made light and cheap cars out of a type of plastic or hardened leather after World War II.





Mercedes-Benz R107 SL and Porsche 911




Opel Manta B



Opel GT and a Mercedes 280SE Coupe.









Citroen 2CV and other historical cars.



Another Iso Rivolta. I found two Iso Rivolta's at the show. Very rare cars. Surprised even two showed up here!





END OF PART I

Iso Rivolta is a rare sighting. As far as I remember it was designed by Bizzarrini.

Opel GT is still an interesting design after so many years. Great pictures, Karma well deserved.

Wow Christian, you've really been busy with your camera... Great job, man.

A 1970 Fury Sport Suburban, I'd say.

Just 300, the letter series cars of the time were 2-doors.

This is a bit confusing. Iso didn't have that many models, but it doesn't look like a Grifo or a Lele... interestingly, one of their most successful models is better known as a BMW. That's of course the Isetta.

I'm guessing it's a 1950's Mercury...

A BMW with a plate that says MB... What a shame...

MB doesn't stand for Mercedes-Benz, it stands for the town this guy is from which is Miesbach.

Nice photos Wimmer. Some of the cars at the show are very beautiful.

[bum-man]

Awesome pictures Wimmer!

It's pretty clear that in the 1950-60's American cars where the design leaders. That's definitly not the case today...
