Greenwood Car Show Seattle 2013

[sjones]

850+ cars spanning 1.2 miles of Greenwood Avenue N, 3000+ visitors, 1 SAAB.

I walked the route twice, the largest club being the classic mini SAMOA club with 27 cars. Counted 7 classic volvos, 10 Datsun 1600s, a LADA but no other SAABs.

It was a good event, but I was seeking shade by 12:30 (setup was 7am)

Hans was supposed to drop by and I spoke to a friend of his earlier who was expecting him to drop by the mini club.

The Puget Sound Volvo Club (3 cars - a 544, 444 and a P1800S) let me hang out with them.



Some cars I thought were fun:

The only Lada I've ever seen in person in the US was in a junkyard in Chicago like 8 years ago.

Yeah, I'm lame -- I wanted to go but I hadn't moved the notchback since last fall and it barely ran when I recently tried to start it. Lacking time to troubleshoot, it sat some more. Ironically, after I went to the show -- I saw your car but not you -- I was inspired to work on it (bad AMM). The paint looks like ass, though, so I don't know how interesting the car would have been to look at...
