By plate check, the teal VW is a 1964 now owned in Sigmar by a seemingly Peruvian couple (Alatrista Sotillo de Krause and Elva Hermelinda Krause)
The white pickup is apparently from 1500 owned by the aforementioned couple.

Ingo - None of the pictures are showing up, even when opening in new tab. Imageshack message says the photo is unavailable.

?? Now they are visible again, or? I had some problem with the upload, for several photos I had to do several trials, but finally I got them. Some days ago Imageshack was screwed, but one, two days later everything was back.

They are showing up as black "X"s, but hitting "Show Picture" works. There are two dead links. Love the yellow Renault 17.

Hmm, I've checked the pics again, with and without being logged in - and all are working.
At one Polish dealer from Elblag (Elbing in German times before 1945. My father was born there) I found annother of these plates (from beer-barrels or from horse-cars? I don't know)
This was the origin of: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elbrewery
btw: this dealer is also noticed by my plate-fellows, because his transporter (a VW LT I, IIRC) has still one old black license plate.
When I asked him for the price, he said "25 Euro"
on my surprised answer "What? One year ago I bought exactly such a plate - but for 10 Euro!? Do you wanna see photos?" he said in real good German "Sorry, my German is not good enough for such discussions" and let me stand there.
Anyways, I'm not too angry, as I already have one
@130rapid, @Weasel: if you may see him on parts-markets in your area (he visits all markets in East Germany, too), maybe you can pick it for a better price than 25€ for me

Nice...
Especially the pics from inside the bus. Was everybody allowed to visit inside or you had the owner's permission ?

Some pics from the 2016 Montreal International Auto Show . there was cars for every one including
The ones who still got a kid's heart
For the interested ones, yes, the owner of the arm is somewhere in the album
The " less-than-three-wheels " vehicles lovers
The classic cars lovers and the dreamers are sharing this one as for a 20$ ticket you have a chance on 10 000 to win this fully restored 1967 Ford Mustang
The ones who thinks that military vehicles are not fast enough
The ones who likes to see concept vehicles
Buick Avenir
Genesis Vision G
Subaru Impreza 5-door concept
The ones who needs to see a vehicle from every angle
The ones who likes pick-up trucks
and the bigger ones
I thought all Ram pick-ups had the new grille but its reserved to the Laramie Limited only, the Rebel being the only other one with a different grille
The ones who still hesitate between buying a SUV or a snowmobile
The ones who prefer the " Green machines "
After getting in and out, i know from where it got the name.... i8 it now..( well, my right leg hates it, felt like i dislocated something after i got out because of the bottom panel/unusual door opening/my height combo that makes it difficult to get in or out.. but very nice and comfortable once you manage to sit in it..
Is a Ferrari can be a Green car if hybrid ?
Or can a race car be one ?
Got inside the Tesla Model S this year
2016 Toyota Prius, looks like Toyota caught Lexus disease, RAV4 and Yaris sedan touched by it too...
The ones who likes funny decals
The ones who have some change in their pockets
Ferrari 488 GTB
Corvette Z06 C7R, 500 units special edition
The ones that loves badges
Not a badge but the Charger Hellcat speedometer
The ones who go there for entertainment
Also tried a virtual reality game and did awful despite knowint the track...
Some soon in movies
2017 Ford Escape
2017 Hyundai Elantra
And the 2017 Acura NSX
As you can see, auto shows are nerveracking for the manufacturers to respect the dates, and when you pick up some late then ...
If interested, more at https://www.flickr.com/photos/zytonits/albums/72157663548384612/with/23855141004- / and sorry for low quality, camera still mad at me for dropping it in front of the Q70 last year and i have to deal with its new mood of " take this good, scrap that one .. "

This is the continuation of the uploading these vehicles that I went to the show yesterday.
1955 Chevrolet Two-Ten (Black/White version).
It is not known if this is the regular 2-Door Sedan or the Club Coupe (Delray) due to over sprayed stamp plate at the firewall
Also, another 1955 Chevrolet Two-Ten (Yellow/White version) with unknown model number (plate is blank at the firewall).

I'm back! Here are my continuing effort to upload more vehicles from the show that I went last week.
1958 Plymouth Belvedere 2-Door Hardtop (Believe me, I have checked the body style name nomenclature against the 1958 Plymouth brochure ):
The interior:
1959 Ford Fairlane 500 Galaxie Skyliner:
Here is 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu Sport Coupe, model 13617 which was dressed up as Super Sport by the owner (I have verified by the plate stamp at the firewall):

Here the pics from the Beaulieu Spring Auto Jumble.
The traffic stuck at the arrival, but not due the visitors of the Auto Jumble:
Sorry for the bad snapshot, but later I couldn't find it again any more
Two clubs made a presentation in the entry area, the Hears Club and the Camping Fans:
Not really mint condition. Actually a terrible clunker...
...more coming soon...masses...

No, Rootes-crap was noticeable underrepresented. At Brooklands, in the Beaulieu museum and the Beaulieu Auto Jumble, too.
Remarkable insofar, as all locations were nearly all around pure British in every meaning. Just Reliant appeared less all there than Rootes.
Of course there were some spare parts dealers with Rootes-stuff, but much less than with Austin/Rover -the whole BL-stuff-, Vauxhall (surprisingly much Opel-bits appeared on the market), Jaguar and UK Ford. Rolls Royce and Bentley were rare, too, but there was an existence visible.
The convertible was an early Reliant Regal, I think. It was a threewheeler.

Now cars, which were for sale at Beaulieu.
Here you can see, how the times have changed: this Granada MkIII/ScopioI indeed got the most attention, at all times. Some US-reimported W107-Benzes or Jaguars weren't minded that much.
And other sights from the market area, some were for sale, too.
As for example this pure wreck for 1750 Pounds:
This VW T2 Camper was for hire:
Very strange, to see them here I thought, they are located in Brussels...
It was easy to find dsl-related items, really not.
This Panhard is owned by an interesteing guy, Sam Glover, a motor journalist, who writes for the "Practical Classic", too.
@130rapid: he is also a Tatra-connaisseur and owns a 603, too
I want to keep contact to him, as he is also interested in the motorisation of Northkorea and has been there, too. I've promised him to sent him the photo-impression from my DPRK-tour, especially the Tatra-shots
He even did know about the West German Tatra-dependance in my next town and that there Tatra-trucks were converted to mobile cranes and other heavy stuff.
In this local article it's to read, that in 1968 there were protest by Tatra-owners there, because auf the lousy quality of the Tatra-products:
