Just got back from a road trip that included Spa Francorchamps, Nurburgring, and the Porsche Museum at Stuttgart.
The AvD-Oldtimer-Grand-Prix was on at the Nurburgring so I thought I should post a few pictures for everyone.
Some interesting cars on display, a large Porsche display and some great period racing. All in all a great event.
Other hire car companies are available!
And a couple of photos from the Porsche museum.

Had a great time there last year, fortunately the weather was a little kinder to us. A great event and one I can't wait to go back to.

Yes the weather was pretty grim as the rain rolled in, but the event was still great.hot66 wrote:Shame it was so wet for you , but some nice looking cars . Old timer is on my list of events to do

Stayed at the Dorint hotel, which is in a terrific spot next to the racetrack.
On arrival at the hotel we were ushered into an overflow part of the carpark that was almost exclusively Porsche cars.
My sort of carpark!
There were even a few 914s there too Stephen.defianty wrote:Had a great time there last year, fortunately the weather was a little kinder to us. A great event and one I can't wait to go back to.

Brilliant. There was several last year including a couple of GT conversions. Once of which 23e Heure and I took many photos of - a very nicely finished car indeed and a benchmark for my project. Thanks for the photos.

I think a few conversions arrived later in the day.
The only unique conversion I photo'd was the one in the Porsche Museum the 914/8 presented to Ferry Porsche on his birthday.
I'm guessing you have seen it before but here is the photo my son took.
The closest match to my Manhattan project was this one in the museum.
