Even Foreign Cars Came To The Antique Auto Shop Open House
This 1957 BMW Isetta was one of a number of foreign cars that rolled in for The Antique Auto Shop Open House and Cruise-In. There were around 70 total cars on the lawn and some unique rides for sure. The Isetta microcar was originally created by the Italian firm of Iso. It was built to be a small runabout city car and actually used a motorcycle engine. If you look closely you can see that the only door is at the front of the car and is the only way to get in and out of this two seater. A number of other companies licensed the rights to the car but it was BMW that did the most with it, including adding a larger engine.
Also on display at the event was a 2005 BMW M3, a 1988 325i, a new Alfa Romeo, a 1970 Triumph TR-6, a concours quality 1994 Porsche 968, a new Porsche and a classic 911S.

Great Weather Brought Out Great Cars
It was a cool and crisp, very unseasonable late summer day under clear skies when The Antique Auto Shop held their Cruise-In and Open House. The event, tucked away in an industrial section of Hebron, brought in over 60 great cars and trucks. There were many of the usual suspects but a few vehicles you don't often see were sprinkled in such as this beautiful LaSalle. Also on display was a Chevy II, what the owner called a 1968 1/2 Ford Mustang, two different model year Impalas, a Corvette, a 1955 Bel Air, and a Pontiac GTO.
