LaVelle Vineyards Summer Club and Party European Car Show

LaVelle-Vineyards-Car-Show-8.2.09-049

This past Sunday was the first LaVelle Vineyards European car show hosted by Sports Car Shop. It was a fantastic afternoon affair on the slopping lawns surrounding the tasting room outside Elmira. Good company, great cars, and delicious wine made for an easy formula that attracted over 40 cars on display and lots of enthusiast onlookers.

Here are my pictures (snapshots really) from the show. Can’t wait to go again next year!

Small Gallery from the Euros in the Valley Car Show 2009

Paul was one of the organizers behind this year’s Euros in the Valley car show. Naturally I had to attend and I was really surprised with the great turnout. Here are my personal favs from the show:

Scirocco MK2 owned by Josh from Sports Car Shop:

Check out the uber rare Zender fan covers! I’m going to have to go back to the VW&Porsche archive to see if I can find an original ad for these. I hear the rims underneath are just as impressive.

Darren’s sweet e30 325ic, which has been brought back from the dead, literally! Great job man!

This BMW 3.0CS was in fantastic shape:

I finally got to see Richard’s e21 320i that I posted on German Cars For Sale Blog. The first real e21 buyer that comes along is going to buy this car. No negotiation required as $3200 is more than fair!

Paul’s Porsche 911SC looks like one of the standouts at this years show:

My personal pick for best of show was this bus. Totally perfect in every way:
