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.

HalfCrab transport
Here's an interesting item: half of the sectioned Austin 1800 from the 1970 Amsterdam Rai exhibition. Where the other half went we'll probably never know. We went to collect it from the UK to give it a temporary home.
It took some effort to drag it out of it's lair and onto the trailer. Glad we had lots of help from the strong men of LOCI!
It was an interesting voyage, with one and a half Landcrab.
