I know, this is THE triples site but i spent today afternoon with older cars. Maybe you'll find this interesting, if not then sorry.
Nice 1 hour drive, less than 100 kms from Helsinki. Few thousand people and lots of cars, bikes etc. Nice weather as well.

You are very welcome, i love the great old American cars, my first car was -63 Rambler Classic. It ate almost as much oil as gas. I couldn't afford all that oil so i used to ask when refuelling the car "where is your used motor oil barrel" and the answer was of course "ïn the back but you cannot put anything there" so i said "i am not gonna add anything there, i will grab some" so i got free engine oil. :lol: :lol:
Next car was a -67 Coronet and after that a -65 Buick Electra 225. 401 engine and 2-speed dynaflow, that car really sucked all the gas quickly! After the Buick i went to european smaller cars but later on i had several Chevy Caprice Classics in row.
Pitty they do not make them anymore.
Old Mopars are closest to me too, they are simply great!
