Two days after the symposium, Retro Albania organized a display of historic vehicles in Peshkopi, and I had the honour of joining the wonderful team that runs the organization. Peshkopi is situated in the county of Dibër, acknowledged as the poorest region in Albania. The mayor of Peshkopi, Rahim Spahiu, invited Retro Albania to organize the event and bring the cars to the town. Retro Albania fulfilled the request by arranging the transportation of around two dozen cars by trucks, while another half a dozen drove up on their way to Kosovo, as they belonged to the club in Prizren. Additionally, locals provided five cars, mostly Mercedes-Benzes. Peshkopi is nestled within the Korab mountain range, sitting at an altitude of approximately 650 meters (2,100 feet) above sea level. While it may not be considered a visually stunning town, it possesses a unique charm. On the 1st of May, May Day, the central street, Boulevardi Elez Isufi, came alive as thousands of people gathered to witness the display of 35 delightful classic cars, showcasing the history of the automobile.
