Westcoast Motor Show 2019 - Part 1 - Yankee cars - 21th of September - Vaasa, Finland

Here are final photos from my trip to Vaasa and Westcoast Motor Show held in Botnia Hall three weeks ago 😊 It was a brilliant show once again with lots of cool vehicles to shoot.

Check out also my other posts from Westcoast Motor Show:

Part 2 - Classic cars
Part 3 - Tuner cars

I still have plenty of photos to go through from events I visited during summer and autumn. Also posts of my current projects are coming soon. There's been few hickups but also lots of progress regarding my GT250K build. Plenty of parts has arrived for CBR600F during last few month so that I can kick off that build too 😎

Westcoast Motor Show @ Botnia Hall - Part 5 - American - 24th of September 2017 - Vaasa, Finland

Here's the last set of photos from the event. I saved the biggest category last 😉 Lots of cool cars were on display in this category. Probably my favorite ones were 1932 Ford 5W Coupe, 1947 Buick Roadmaster, 1957 Pontiac Starchief and 1971 Chevrolet Camaro if I had to name a few.

American and yankee cars have been very popular in Finland for a long time. There are a lot of events (shows, cruises, meet ups, swap meets etc.) based around this scene and most of them are located in southern part of Finland. With that said there are a lot of nice events also elsewhere around Finland like this one in Ostrobothnia.

Last Sunday I made a one day trip to Vaasa to visit Westcoast Motor Show for the first time. I had quite a busy schedule that day. I took a train from Oulu around 9 am in the morning and arrived to Vaasa little over 1 pm. Botnia Hall, where the event took place, is located in Mustasaari, around 7 kilometers from the city centre. A quick cab drive took me under 15 minutes to reach my destination.

Westcoast Motor Show is arranged by a local association called Westcoast Street Cruisers ry. Show features all kinds of vehicles from restored classics to heavily modified cars and motorcycles. There were also few snowmobiles, which I will cover later.
