Old beauties made a grand entry on Lucknow roads

The old beauties captured the attention of every Lucknowite when a vintage car rally was organized in the city, recently.
A total of 24 old cars, along with 20 motorcycles, assembled at a petrol station in Hazaratganj. The rally, which was flagged off by Kaushal Raj Sharma, District Magistrate of Lucknow, covered various landmarks of the city including Lohia Park, 1090 crossing, a mall in

Gomti Nagar

and culminated at Indira Gandhi Pratishthan.
Talking about the passion of the owners on preserving vintage cars, Kaushal Raj said, “It's worth appreciating how the owners have still preserved the beauty of the cars, giving them a complete new look.”
