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.
Yes, it's a rubber bumper California car with a noisy big Weber fitted. So it's great fun to drive.
We drove home without trouble. At home I fiddled a bit with hoses, retarded the ignition a bit to cure some pinking, fixed the dud brake light switch and revived the cooling fan relay.
Let's hope we'll get a few nice sunny days, so we can make some mileage before the winter weather starts.
