Beautiful pictures! Were any of the cars for sale or just display?
I am skeptical that being Salzburg all about salt the E9 could rust just on approach of the city, and with the lousy stock radio the Trapp family would be up in arms and stop singing.
Oh, and the speeding ticket I got in Austria was worse than DQ's in Spain, it was collected on the spot by a motorcycled officer who would only provide his number, not a name. I told him the Cancun police were the same but cheaper

Most of these cars were for sale. You had a mix of professional and private sellers and an auction with 109 lots. 90% of these sold. Most of the sales cam in at the lower end of the estimate, which is an indicator for the current market. The highest bid was for a Ferrari Dino 246 GTL (1970) at 402,500 EUR. The CSL was not as high but did well, price-wise.
The total event attracted 23,000 visitors over 3 days.
Agreed on the salty roads in winter, so we keep the car in the garage from Nov onwards... and we mitigate Trapp stop by having a bluetooth plug-in for the Bavaria S (period-correct) radio so we can stream
Speeding tickets on county roads are collected by the county to improve the local budget, so tourists often fall into that trap if they do not look carefully about the respective limits. Roads and motorways are usually in very good condition, so people tend to speed id the weather is good. Contrary to Germany we have speed limits on the Autobahn. On the other hand we probably have less construction and better overall infrastructure as there was enough investment into tier 1 roads.
