Boats by the River (BBTR) #7 - 2022

[Georg/BBTR]

Hi guys,

It's another two weeks and the annual BBTR event will take place in the Moselle valley, Germany, again.
For now we have 67 pre-registrations, but as we all know some will not make it to the show.
Well, we hope to exceed the numer of participating Fuselage C-Bodies from last year, a decent 43 cars.

By the way, these cars are coming from all over Europe with long distances to travel.

If you are still in doubt - get your car ready and come to the largest get-together of Fuselage C-Bodies in the world!

Man, I need to get my boat on the ship!!

FWIW and for the wine lovers on this board know that this region has been considered the best place for Riesling in the world. I'm always confusing Mosel and Moselle so I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

You are 100% right, Mosel-Riesling is best in the world!
Mosel(german) and Moselle(english/french) are two words for the same river...

@Xenon you have to read it correctly: "the largest get-together of Fuselage C-Bodies in the world". Okay, there may be no other Fusi-only event in the world, but it just sounds better. ;-)

We will be there....

You guys always have a really nice turnout with a lot of nice C bodies.
Always look forward to seeing the annual pics of the cars in attendance.
Maybe my old triple pickle will show up this year for your event.

It does, @Snotty - with over 40 cars and an estimated gap of 80 foot between every car, you get a one mile long line of Fuselage C-Bodies.

It's cool passing a group of people all driving a particular type of car. I was on the Pacific Coast Highway in my Newport, with the top down, close to Big Sur, when some 12 AC Cobras (probably kits) all drove the other way. Lots of thumbs up in both directions!

Several years after that I was on northern California 49, also with my top down, when some 12 street rods went by the other direction. Again, lots of thumbs!! Always cool!
