Colfax Indiana car show

This years car show here in Colfax In. will be on Aug. 9th. starting about 9:00 am and going until about 2:00 pm. Last year we had a total of 4 Opels show up, we were trying to get a couple more this year. it is a very nice show to go to, local event here in Indiana. If you are close enough this is fun we are about 45 miles north of Indianapolis just off I-65. The American Legion has a chicken dinner and there is a tractor pull on Sat. night. zip here is 46035. for map quest. I think there is a 15.00 entry fee. going to a good cause. last year all 4 GT's got awards. Any questions call me 765 430 6921. Paul. I have pictures posted in my Opels in my yard section. check it out

Colfax Car Show

Hey there Paul;
I will plan on being there with my GT weather permitting. It would be nice to have at least 4 if not, more Opels there this year. Hope we're not going to "pay" for the nice, cooler weather we're having right now..we don't need that 90 plus degree stuff! Take care

Randy S.

Hey Paul,
I'm hoping to join you guys again this year. Hard to say for sure, but I will know better in a week or so. I need to get a few more miles on the GT this summer. The spiders living in the engine bay are getting bored!
Are you bringing both GTs this time?

Wow Paul,
Congrats on the new acquisition. I didn't know you were looking to add to the herd. Send up a photo or 3 of the M car.

Always fun hanging out in Colfax with the other Midwestern Opel heads. Hot today, but a very nice showing for the group. Thanks again to Paul for bringing us together. Looking forward to our next get together.
