Foreigners Came to the Pumpkin Run

When an event only allows cars made from 1974 or earlier, one would suspect that it wouldn't be that big. Yet the 49th annual Pumpkin Run Nationals, like its predecessors, managed to attract nearly 3000 cars and trucks to the Clermont County Fairgrounds. Sponsored each year by the Fastiques Rod and Custom Car Club, the vast majority of those vehicles were American made. But not all. There were a few foreign imports in the crowd including a 1972 Honda Z600, an Opal GT, a Datsun 260 Z, a resto mod Austin Seven, an Allard, a Saab 93, a 1969 Fiat 850 Sport Spider, and a 1964 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud which belongs to my friend.
