Sven arrived last night while we were at the concert. We are going over to the Bentlage’s house to visit with Sven. We had not seen him since 1994! We had a great time looking at pictures and talking about what he is doing in Shanghai, other places he has been.
Heinz sail he and Irmela would come by and take us to see his cars. About 12:30 pm Horst tells us they have just driven up. They arrived in a 1957 Volkswagen Bus – one of the cars in the collection. All 7 of us could ride comfortably to the place he has his cars. What a fun surprise.
How about a Vespa. Or a Moto Guzzi Motorcycle with a bar trailer. Complete with draft beer, wine, juice, etc.
Classic cars in the Collection include the following:
Mercedes 300 SL 1957
Mercedes 300 SLS AMG Gullwing
Mercedes 600 Pullman – Limo
Mercedes 300 6.3 L, V12,
BMW Alpina B6, V8
BMW Isetta 1957 (built in Italy)
Porsche 959 Carrera GT
2 Ferrari Fino, E-type
Shelby Cobra
Racing BMW
2 Classic Jaguar XKE convertibles
Volkswagen Bus 1957
The Garage for the Classic Cars. Trophies are in the back
Elaine in the Racing Porsche 959 Couldn’t believe Sven could get in the Porsche 959
Ortrun in the Shelby Cobra 427 and Sven and Ortrun
Edward in the Mercedes Gull Wing. Note the original luggage.
BMW Isetta 1957 - do you remember these?
Toy Mercedes Watching DVD of Heinz and his car in the Dubai 24 hr Race
24th Dubai 2011 Race Heinz during the race Watching the DVD of the race
The drivers names are on the car. There are 5 drivers in the 24 hours race - H. Schmersal is above the door.
Of course you must have an RV for the races. The trailer is for the racing equipment that he tows with the Dodge Ram Crew Cab “TEXAN” Truck with V12 Hemi Engine.
Heinz’s company logo – they make safety switches, etc. All you have to know is how to turn things OFF and ON.
What a day of fun we had at the garage! Thanks to Heinz and Irmela, again, for another great experience.
Afterwards we spent time with Sven and Horst and Ortrun.
