Wanted automobilia!! EDITOR: Dear Bert, you should post a Wanted advert in our parts/automobilia section.

All classic cars prohibited...?!

Author: Editor Tuesday, 07 May 2013

One of our observant readers pointed us to a somewhat disturbing roadsign... prohibited for all classic cars and motorcycles.

Of course we were immediately on high alert, but fortunately after scrutiny it became clear that it is only used for decoration. 

This road sign can be found in one of the most characteristic villages of the Netherlands, a small fishertown called Urk.

Pre-war salooning post war (Norman Parkinson's Birthday)

Author: Ian Hagger Sunday, 21 April 2013

As it is Norman Parkinson's Birthday 100th today (21/4/13), I thought i'd share this photo he took in 1953. The subject is Sir Hugh Casson, architect of the Festival of Britain and interior designer of the Royal Yacht Britannia. Of more interest of course is what I percieve to be a 20hp Rolls Royce. Looking rather shabby but amply demonstrating way a saloon is sometimes the better choice!
