Some are boosted, some are outlawed. All are meant to be driven.
If you can’t get enough for your air-cooled high, then Zuffengruppe 2 will be your hallowed pusher.

We are very pleased to bring our quality Fuelfed Coffee & Classics® for the second time to beautiful downtown Douglas, Michigan. As is the Fuelfed tradition of bringing our events to unique, vibrant and deserving communities, Harbor Country is well served to be the new hub for western Michigan’s classic European car culture.
Fuelfed Coffee & Classics Douglas (C&CDM) is only focused on classic European cars and providing a special venue for local owners to share their automotive passion in the early morning format Fuelfed is known for since 2010.
For 2019 we are starting with three dates:
Saturday mornings: August 3, October 5.
9:00am to 11:00am
Center & Main in downtown Douglas
Parking: Open street parking. Please obey the traffic laws and NO standing in the street.

Proud to feature MG, Triumph & Austin Healey this Sunday morning in Winnetka.
Due to construction that has started on the both Oak and Cherry St. bridges, we ask drivers to enter on Oak as usual, but from the east. Tower to Sheridan or Winnetka Ave. to Sheridan are your only options. You will not be able to enter from Greenbay Rd.
Sorry all Winnetka events will be for current Fuelfed members and featured marques only. This means no Day-Pass for your 2019 Lambo and your buddies R8.
Our Fuelfed Coffee & Classics Thiensville this Sunday morning 7.21 from 9:00am to 11:00am.
Yes, it’s the Historics at Road America, so join us before you head up to Elkhart.
We honor the old Mill Race Motors location at Greenbay Rd. and Elm in downtown Thiensville.
Shully’s will be serving coffee and pastries.
Come join us for some vintage European camaraderie.
Fuelfed is honored to be invited as a concours judge this weekend at probably the oldest vintage car event in the country. Yes, we’re talking about Road America in Elkhart Lake. Since Fuelfed events bring the top collectors together in a relaxed social format, it will be interesting to flip and now judge them on many levels. Remember: Fuelfed stickers earn more points! ; )

While Fuelfed has the well earned reputation for top collector cars, our Coffee & Classics is open all vintage European cars. The elder products of the largest European manufacturer have been shy to join in. So this Sunday C&C Barrington is featuring VW to offer a warm and welcoming 13mm wrench to our Wolfsburg brothers.

9:00am to 11:00am, July 14, 2019
The Foundry of Barrington, IL

Our Club Event Guidelines
1. We do not allow any soliciting, nor marketing of your car, events, or services at any Fuelfed events. Our spotters will remove and record your efforts.
2. Coffee & Classics is a private club event for current Fuelfed club members. However, if you have a classic European car manufactured prior to 1990, you can make a donation of $10 at the main gate to show your car. We encourage you to join Fuelfed and your $10 will be credited to your membership dues.
3. Please arrive at 9:00am, not 8:30am. And, do not park in spots reserved for Tensile Strength or Coldwell Banker.
4. Those posting pictures online, we ask that give the courtesy to let others know you were at Fuelfed Coffee & Classics. And yes. Fuelfed has an official Instagram account #fuelfedcarclub.
