Vintage 2024

[dbower]

Time for gathering again at The Vintage in Hot Springs, North Carolina, May 17-18. I'll be there in the E3 with a trunk-full of fabulous (?) finds from my attic -- E3, E9, E10. Look me up in the Clarion parking lot Friday and Saturday nights. Who else is going?

Don

I hope everyone has a great time! Last time I went (waaay back in 2011 or so) it was a blast. It was great to meet so many of the folks on this board in person. I want to go back next year, work prevented me from going this year.

Probably umbrella time at the French Broad River...I may have a trinket or two in the Nevada 2002 trunk... Friday and (clandestinely...) Sat...Everyone be safe getting there. Have a friend here in town with a Ceylon E3 for sale, that he has a gent coming to see Friday, but we'll see...good solid car with other good parts to go with it...If I had room and $$, I'd love to have it....

You should have that, Dave....

I know, I should've....He was going to let me have it for half of what I told him that I thought was fair last night...(my wife says I'm not a good "larcenist"), so I have probably priced myself out of it now. He has the window sticker $7808.25...bought it in 91, I think...had triple webers, but sold them early on...has a rumble like it has had cam work...My wife didn't like the color...

 

[bluecoupe30!]

I have read that colour grows on you. Plus, I will bet seller will entertain pretty much any offer........Probably wise to ask him to not reveal final selling price if buyer turns out to be other than you. Good luck! Mike

I will also have a full set of dash/door wood available for purchase, fully restored by moi...look for the Nevada 76 2002. Or call me 828.44three.fourteenOh4.

SOLD...thanks friend in Indianaland

Beautiful day at the Vintage, my friend Le Tran sent me this picture from today at Vintage.

Here are some more pics of all the E3's and E9's I could find. Pretty slim pickins this year, probably because of the wet forecast. Only 3 E9's, but several more E9 owners who drove something else. The white CSL belongs to Lance White in Cincinnati.

I met the owner of the Granatrot 3.5csi, he lives in Tampa. Who owns the Polaris one?

I met him and his name is Terry S. Didn't catch his last name. The car was originally owned by a Dr and was order with Blue "velour" interior w/ Automatic. It now has a 4 speed.
Nice car and I don't believe he is on the forum much.

Terry Semshynsian...sure that I botched the spelling, but phonetically close, ophthalmologist from Winston-Salem..had a flat on the way, is why the wheels don't match on that side. Super nice gentleman. Great to see e9'rs Barney Toler, and Dan Wood and Don Bower and Roland Porst...great time. Don's e3 was the most handsome.

My e9 rested at home....at least I made it in Nevada..thanks to Steve Jordan (who bought my Baikal project e9) replacing my master and slave three days before...him at right....

Dave V's 2002 is gorgeous!

I recognize Rob Siegel’s Sahara e3. My coupe’s former radiator resides in that Bav.

That's a lovely rendering of your photo, I touched it up a bit to clean up the background.

Yes...Ragno, I think, or "spiders"...From Mario L, about 22 or so years ago...late one dial-up ebay night...with the matching "C" lugs....Still have the Campy box that they came in...probably should put the box on bring a trailer....
