  1. Wow, an Opel GT a Gremlin a couple of Volkswagons an MG a Triumph and what appears to be a Catalina. Quite a gathering

  2. The Opel GT was available in the US? Wow! I had no idea.

    1. Yep, that's what the source I linked to said. I simply see it as a target full of skimmer pukes. In the background is Sub Base, full of steel boats and iron men. And the dive tower. I posted it because it has the cars, though. What prompted you to name the ship? Just gp?

    2. Automatic. I was a skimmer puke aboard a DE (later rebadged as an FF). Now my eldest is a skimmer puke aboard a DDG. Can't see a hull number without knowing about the ship.
