Darracq 12/32 1924
I have owned this Darracq 12/32 for 22 years and am it's 4th owner.  The original owner had it from new until his death in 1961 and only lived 10 miles from where I live now.  Largely unrestored it has only covered 55000 miles from new.  Built in Acton London it has a factory body and differs in many ways to the French version which was sold as a Talbot-Darracq.    Regards  Andy Watt

This is my 1936 Wolseley Super Six Sixteen I am restoring.  The car is complete and runs.  Does anyone have suggestions on where to get the rubber coverings for the running boards made?

The Editor's Model T is back from winter storage and after an hour of fiddling coughed it's way to the nearest tankstop. Tango is the name of this chain of unmanned fuelstations to keep costs low. Model T & Tango, it takes a T to tango...

The British have a reputation for being eccentric, especially here in France - but it is not just the men...... who else would go driving in a freshly restored car in the snow!  This is my wife in our 1939 MG TA - Q

My Son got married in Newport, RI this weekend.  We drove him around in our 1932 Franay Bodied Duesenberg.

I must say I enjoyed passing a Pirus on 95.

Last week I was very happy in locating this beautifull photo of a pedal car including a small scale petrol can.

It was made by Whitaker's "Cowboy" fancy dress studios from 50&51 Marine Parade, Southend-on-Sea.
