Motorcycles, sidecars and an Indian Servicar
1916 Oregon plates on the front
Cool oil sumps on the island
All optioned up
First time I've seen an Indian Servicar, but also interesting is the Packard Service sign's shape
1924 police, and interesting sidecar windshield
1926 Batimore taxi. Pretty cool, but I think history demonstrates this didn't work out

A variety of snowmachines from The Old Motor
What some used to do with their Harleys in the winter
Cat tracked and hydraulic rammed with solid front tires.
Wow, land train... I can't recall seeing one before. Very cool
either a homemade snow machine from car parts, or a conversion kit... in front of the woman on the right is a door I think, and behind her the body seems to have some sheet metal going up the side from the frame

The rolled #13 bug I found at Familienfest 17 has some cool interior things to share with you
the fenders, roof edges, and hubcaps look like they took the full brunt of a roll over crash... but hte car is in really good condition all the same... no damage to the windows!
Cool glasses hanging from the rear view
I love this radio, I've never seen one like it before... it would be perfect in a hot rod
besides the radio I've never seen before, here is a tach I've never come across before
Great book to have in the car for car show people to admire... I do. In the great days of wealth just before the great depression of 1929 it was common for rich people to "Make the Tour" and drive around Europe
terrific car, I had more fun looking at this one than all the rest
Iverson Drag Stripper bicycle
this poor ol beast has a different type of handlebars... I've never seen a dual individually adjustable handlebar before... turns out the handlbars are from a Iverson Road Runner or Dragger, and the rest of the bike seems to be the Drag Stripper
thanks Steve!

Jim Beam's publicity stunt of selling whisky in bottles that look like cars and other things was brilliant. People who aren't bottle collectors still buy the ones that pertain to their hobby, they are that well made
