Last Friday the featured cars were air cooled cars. This usually brings out some interesting automobiles.
Image
This is one you might recognize.
Image
I have been told that this Honda is air cooled but I'm not sure.
Image
I have never seen this van in Downers Grove before. I think a lot gets done during the cold winter months.
Image
This is Frankenstein and I know that it isn't air cooled
Image
Image
Not a featured car but nice anyway. In high school I drove a 4 door 1957 Ford.
Image
Many years ago I sat in this car as it hit 100 mph. Don't try this at home.

And lastly, a little bit of Europe in Downers Grove.

The Citroen 2CV, the small French Queen. This yellow and black is a limited series based on the Charleston, sold from November 1981.

Thanks for sharing, Chuck.

We visit Frankenstein's Garage and go for a ride. Nobody dies!

Yes I know that they are different cars I was just considering that the S800 was to air cooled and with a motorcycle engine .
In year 1967 a collegue has ordered one of that first Honda entering in France; He has waited more than 7 mounths for the delivery !!!!!!
This car was like a toy because of the size and it was so difficult to go in and out !!!!!!
