The cars in the clip you posted are pretty cool! The old roadster (that looked as though some time and effort had been put into building it) was great, as well as the 914 at the end, the old Mercury (I think), the VW bugs, the older Porsches, etc. What the heck was the green & white car at the 0:32 mark? The pink & white car at the 4:00 minute mark was similar but it looked like it might have been a Studebaker.

The event covers 3,500 km over 7-days/7-stages and also had some impressive Porsche entries if my quick search was accurate. I bet that would be a fun race for drivers and spectators alike!

there were a few Studebakers running. How cool!

PCA had an interview with a 911 owner that drove from Montreal to the race. Raced and then drove home.
