A purse for exchange of mechanical parts in Narbonne

Mechanical enthusiasts will roar with pleasure! For the 2nd consecutive year, the Association Ancien Vehiques du Languedoc-Roussillon is organizing a scholarship for exchange of auto parts, motorcycles and tractors: it will take place in the parking lot at the end of the Quai Victor-Hugo, this Thursday, May 8 all day. The event will bring together around sixty exhibitors from all over the country and handpicked. At the origin of this meeting, we find Christian Capdeville, president of the club (and honorary president founder of the Automobile Club de la Narbonnaise), with his partner and the secretary Gilbert Biasoli. Without forgetting Bernard Vives, himself an exhibitor and ankle worker of the demonstration.

“These old parts exchange grants are done increasingly rare and there are little in the department. Despite the sales sites on the Internet, enthusiasts of old vehicles cannot always find their happiness online. We like to see the parts we are looking for, and it is often by strolling on the stands that we find the nugget to which we no longer thought. Some parts are no longer manufactured and become intriguable, except in this type of demonstration.” explains Christian Capdeville. He who is at the head of an impressive collection of around 70 vintage cars, knows what he is talking about!

The scholarship should have a great success and attract a host of visitors from all over the country and from Spain. The event is also intended to perpetuate itself in the years to come, to the delight of amateurs who like to meet to share their passion. In order to add a little more conviviality to the event, the members of the association will offer a refreshment bar and a small catering stand. On this occasion, parking will be prohibited in the free parking lot of the Quai Victor-Hugo.
