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.
The wooden panels in the doors have been replaced. Now I can fit the door trim.
The old planks were almost dust.
The new panel fitted and preserved with creosote. It looks ugly, but it will dissappear behind the nice blue doortrim..
Luckily the rest of the woodwork is ok.
Here you can see the factory anti-drum. The bare lower half has been replaced. Probanly in the seventies. This will get a liberal dose of cavity wax!
