A random selection of posts about travel and tinkering with mechanical machines. Mostly cars from 1937 to 1999, manufactured in English speaking parts of the world, but also kayaks and sewing machines. So here you can see how we travel, drive, paddle, break fix and find on a regular basis. On a desktop, you can choose your favourite item from the list on the right, choose a page from the menu or simply scroll down to see the latest.
Tagged along at a friend’s suspension upgrade. He had new shock absorbers fitted at Chevy8shop.nl. By the way, we found that there were wooden blocks between the springs and plate. I don’t know if those are original fitment, but they did look really well made. They were even fitted with a correct hole and dowel to fit the pin the spring. Now I’ll have to look under all early CJ’s to compare.
