Kinja'd!!!

I like how this has gone from just Trabants to more of a celebration of Eastern European cars over the last few years. There’s plenty of Trabis, but there’s also an FSO Syrena, a Barkas B1000 with another Trabant in its bed, and a Lada. I’ll post more pics later.

Any other opponauts turn out for this?

Awesome. Where is this? I’d like to see more of that Barkas.

It was at the International Spy Museum in DC. Ended at 4 though.

They hold it every year, usually on the first Saturday of November or so.

Oh, ok. Right. I remember reading about that show. I’m in L.A., so I would never have made it. There’s a group of Communist car owners out here that get together once a month. The vehicles aren’t quite as varied.
