Pray, dear Sir, which Nurburg is this? It may not be the Mumbai car as the Newspaper group is different, maybe the Bangalore or Tata car?

BTW, there used to be a junk Nurburg in Nagpur, I had seen pictures of it, wonder where she landed up.

Cheers harit

The press was informed about the event details. We will be having the Mercedes Nurburg that has commenced its onward journey from its destination, four Rolls Royces, one DKW, Chevrolets, Fords, Dodges, and many more brands. Some cars will be seen for the first time on this circuit.We are thankful to members who brought along their old jalopies today. The press corps got a sneak peek of a few of the beauties.

Quite right, that makes sense. No reason for the other two to go there, and a fourth has not yet been found.

Surely she will make her presence felt.

[anjan_c2007]

We had some incessant rains yesterday in the Orange City. The tempretures are down and the ground under the scanner was a bit "not very presentable". CIVAA is taking all pains to give a proper surface for the display of the old exotics. In fact, the cars and bikes have started arriving at the venue since this evening.
The show must go on as scheduled and will go on.
The inauguration is as scheduled tomorrow at 10.30 am at the hands of Air Marshal S. Srikumar, HQMC,Nagpur.

The CIVAA Republic Day display and Parade pictures here. The show was a grand success. Visitors had started thronging the venue since around 9.00 am when many of the cars and bikes were arriving.
Many of the beauties were parked at the venue since last evening, as the first few evening pictures will show.
The show was inaugurated by Air Marshal S. Srikumar, SOSM, Hqs Maintenance Command , IAF, Nagpur. He took a keen interest in viewing each and every beauty, often enquiring about the car/ bike make and owner.His family members were also in attendance and were also taking a keen interest in the beauties lined up.

Many, many pictures to follow right here soon

I am amazed to see a wide variety of beauties gathered for the event. Kudos to CIVAA for organising a show at such a large scale & successfully managing it despite rains playing a spoilsport.

Coming to the cars its very hard for me to decide which one is the show stopper as all of them are Gems.

BTW thanks for sharing the pics agspins & Anjan ji.
