Classic Motor Show in Lahti, Finland

Kind all time
In Lahti 5 and 6 May 2012 there was an exhibition of vintage cars Classic Motor Show. An annual event, has been held in my fifth time. This year is also carried on the classic rally crews and auction. My son and I visited the exhibition on the first day, the auction did not watch, because it was a pity time, and get to know lots can be separately during the inspection exposure.
In addition to direct exhibits specifically angvzhirovannyh weekend, adjacent to the exhibition center parking lot held a sort of unofficial exhibition organized quite an original way, namely in the parking allowed only cars older than 30 years, the rest had to find a place or on a paid parking lot or in the surrounding streets.
Entrance fee, 15 euros per person, but children under 12 years were run free.

According to organizers, the exhibition this year was themed "Disappeared of the brand." In my opinion, this is not really correspond to reality, although some unknown and long-forgotten brands really got to see. The above information with photos is often a direct translation of the text provided by the owner. Since a lot of pictures, I did not go into the details of the transfer, so some things may seem wrong to anyone. If for you it is really important that drew my attention to an inaccuracy, and if not, then it does not matter. As in the past his post on the museum of armored vehicles, the problem this time was simple - to enable as many people stare at the rare, unusual, beautiful cars.

It will be a lot of pictures, some with accompanying information, so if you wish, you can wedge - I do not know how long it will take the publication of anything that is planned, but certainly more than one hour.
Photos can be used; if someone needed source, then let us know - photos in this post are cut off for technical reasons
