We helped him a couple of years ago with his 1955?s worn crankshaft (8 cyl.)
Tomorrow we will both visit a small meet at Reuver, NL, one hour from D?sseldorf, 1/2 from Venlo NL, where Edwin lives.
I had to hurry this afternoon to get my Ply running. At 8 pm all was together for tomorrow!
Greetings from D?sseldorf! Go
btw. I?m still solving a million of little problems since my Plymouth holidays in July.
I didn?t yet find the time to finish my report!
Edwin and his wife Ineke with their 1955 Savoy Station wagon joined the US- Oldtimer Meet at Reuver , The Netherlands, on the perfect Sunday, 2nd Sept.
He put his problematic engine together very beautifully! After checking half a dozen crank shafts, he finally found a good one.
We saw a dozen Plys, most muscle cars, but a 1955 Belvedere too!
The evening before, it didn?t seem I could go there by Plymouth - but the radiator was ready in time.
Greetings from D?sseldorf!
Go
You like Pettycoats?
Ineke and other beautiful girs enjoyed the cars, the colors and the sun!
Beautiful Go, wish I was there. Great cars, Wonderful ladies. Take care of you.

Go,
Looked like a great time. I know people get a kick out of seeing these old US cars here in the states. I would assume that they are a little rarer to find on the Autobahn. Looks like a great time had by all involved.
Chet?
Thanks for posting, looks like you had a very nice time. Amazing to see all the Yank Tanks that show up for European shows.
Thanks for the compliment Glen, but she's already taken.
It was great to meet Go after all these years.
Go, good to hear your radiator didn't leak on the trip back home.
Edwin.
some more pictures.
Edwin.
and more pictures
And more pictures....there were somewhere to 500 American oldies
This is where I stop, if you want to view more, check the website of the organiser, Gerrit Hillen.
He is an amazing guy. The last 5 years he did give up his holiday to organise these events, to bring the old American cars together(and also Cadillac event) .
Even spending his own money to cover the costs. The site is in dutch of course, but google translate should do the trick.
http://www.cadillac1962.nl/ go to the tab "foto's" at the 2012 event Go's and my car are at row 14 picture 28-29-30
Enjoy.
Edwin
