I try to setup a trip every year to a "destination" car show and this year I trailed my 7 up from Florida to the Euro Fest.

 

Very well done by the organizers and of course beautiful weather!

 

The "Hybrid" theme was kind of quirky, but brought out several cars I had only seen in pictures (NSU, Bitter, Scimitar...).  Maybe these are common in the Greenville area, but that was part of the reason to travel and see something different.

And, I got to meet Bill and J and put faces to fellow forum members!

 

Great event and well worth the trip!

Good to hear!!

Great idea the annual destination show!

Do you recall what model NSU was it?

(I learned to drive on an NSU 1000C)

NSU Ro80, Rotary engine well appointed 4 door sedan.  Excellent condition!

 

Never saw one before and I thought it was French!

Cars and Coffee this month is at Michelin, then back to Bridgeway Station next month. Uncertain what I'll bring at this time, maybe the Caterham if I get it safely back on the road by then.

This is magnificent!!  I love the Ro80.  Always lusted after one.  Ground breaking car in so many ways, so ahead of its time.

Only thing I wasn't keen on was the 3 speed semi-automatic (with clutch activation by a force switch in the gearshift lever).  Should have had a 5 speed....

Haven't seen one in person for a very long time.  Even more sorry now I had to miss the show.  Great you took the pic!

Thanks for the correction!  I intend to bring the 7.  I just hate to get up early in the morning...
