Silvretta Hochalpenstrasse (High Alpine Road), southwestern Austria. Fantastic scenic and curvy road is utilized for a yearly classic vehicle rally. First opened in 1954 to regular traffic, to reach the Silvretta reservoir.

I agree! Weird.


know I'm late to the party, but the zipper was original to the factory accessory panel covers (that came with factory ordered extra seat covers). I had 2 cars with those.

Wow, I wonder if any NOS door panel and seat covers sets exist still? That would be worth finding the right car for them!

The boy walking the dog is in shorts, people are sitting on the deck eating and relaxing, nobody is wearing any kind of heavy coat, and the sunroofs are open on the cars....with all that snow on the ground? Must be a different kind of cold in the region.
