Who was at Retro Barcelona?

Unfortunately we didn't have a chance to visit Barcelona last weekend and we would like to hear a first hand report. Few people outside Spain are aware of the fact that Barcelona used to be the Spanish Detroit pouring out thousands of cars of many different makes (and not one Seat)before the Civil War. Still there are a lot of great private car collections to be found in and around Barcelona. And the automobiles are not only in the hands of their wealthy owners. Only very few people are around with skills like this veteran techno wizzard. We were too late to talk with him at the end of the rally Barcelona-Sitges last spring. This 'Pablo' is able to start (also non cooperative machinery) all participating cars without thinking. It took him no more than 10 minutes to start & move 15 cars...
