Cool stuff! That little flat car would look perfectly at home being towed behind a speeder on this side of the "pond".

Very nice. Thanks Barney. Whenever I go to that part of the world, I am amazed at how everything is slate grey...no surprise, but it does surprise me every time.
You may ask yourself: "Well, how did I get here?"

Barney,

thanks a lot for the pictures. I've been to the museum in the mid nineties and was deeply impressed, especially from the workshops of the site and the way they were museumizated (or better: not).

Cheers,
Volker
I'll make it. If I have to fly the five feet like a birdie.
I'll fly it. I'll make it.

I love that old gas station! It would look right at home in Nevada or the Mojave desert.
