A Collection of Renault 8 Gordinis, 1968-1970

So in the previous post we saw a really great Fiat 500. Now we see the real passion of the fine gentleman I spoke to.

He used to (maybe still does!) campaign Renault 8 Gordinis locally, down in Washington State, and probably elsewhere. First up, a beautiful 1968 example, which is in just as fine a shape as the Fiat. The next looks to be a 1970, though I may be mistaken. I was a little constrained in taking these pictures, so there are only a few of the final Gordini.

The owner was very patient with my desire to get pictures, and I thank him for his kindness.

1972 Fiat 500L

The engine cover in the last picture is not warped, that's lens distortion I could not get rid of.
You might notice an interesting car in the background of the second picture. More on that in the next post.
