Hungary has
so much
history.

 |
| |
|
| People were
very interested in the Imperial. We left the hood up and all windows
down so they could see and take as many pictures as they wanted. |

|
|
| This is a
Russian manufactured car. This brand and type was copied from a late
1950's Packard. It was made until 1980 with very little model
changes made to it through the years. Though, the 1959 Imperial was
technically more advanced then the 1980's Russian sedan picture, I would
still love to have one in
America. |

Yeno is a long standing Hungarian business man and owner of
over 120 vintage vehicles. Yeno was a little emotional, that here in
Eger Hungary at one dinner table; Germans, Americans, Romanians and
Hungarians all together enjoying each other's company. |
