Jay's Treasures

Post by A Whiteman » Fri Mar 04, 2022 10:37 pm

I am having a ball going through Jay's Accessory of the Day posts and 'converting' them to the Gallery, which makes them more accessible: https://mtfca.com/phpBB3/app.php/gallery/album/75

There is so much neat (and even frightening) stuff to see that I had to make a post to share some of my favourites so far.

Top of the list must be the exploding (yes really) thief deterrent. WHAT! For real! you just had to wire up this explosive device made by the Triumph Explosives Inc to your engine to 'stop that thief'.....

Following up the explosives would be a challenge, but Jay has plenty of intriguing items, one of which is this lens to help you see those pesky lights dangling above the intersection: https://mtfca.com/phpBB3/app.php/gallery/image/2089

What accessory would be helpful, especially in your first brass car?

Why not something to remind you where to set the mixture?

This item is a favourite ! I wonder if it really worked? What is it - why it is a warning notice to the policeman not to arrest the motorist for speeding!
