Photo of unknown origin. Interested? It can be yours.

I'm cleaning up "stuff" in my shop and ran across this photo. I have no idea of the source, don't recall anything about why I have it. If it's meaningful to someone, just offer to pay the postage via PayPal and it's yours!
Enjoy!

The first time was an 8 minute drive through the wooded Flagstaff AZ region (all action and engine sounds....no talking). The last time was nearly two years ago when Jay Leno and Alan drove the Bugatti around Sou...

As a maker of leather license plates for horseless carriage owners to use and display on their automobiles, I was excited to see what definitely appears to be a well preserved "original", of the era meaning over 100 years old, leather lic...

Re: Drain antifreeze and replace with distilled water for summer?

.......and NEVER use just distilled water. Distilled water is very corrosive, the natural chemicals are stripped away when the water is distilled and it becomes very corrosive, trying to pull in nearly any metal it can, hence it's very corrosive.
