My old thing collecting some new windows for the house:
The boot had another window and all the double-glazed units in it. There was a good reason for this mission, it was the only car that had old-fashioned gutters which my roofrack would fit...
That looks fantastic.The boot had another window and all the double-glazed units in it. There was a good reason for this mission, it was the only car that had old-fashioned gutters which my roofrack would fit...
The strange thing is, I didn't like them when they were new, but I wouldn't mind having one in the garage now.
For now it does well in taking the family to shows and occasional use for work, attending meetings etc.
I once transported a double sink top unit on the back seat of my XJS convertible (with the roof down!) but didn't think to take a photo. I just happened to have the XJS with me when I saw a suitable sink.
At a 'cider fair' near me in France the other day there was a 60-year-old Nuffield tractor (the one made by BMC to challenge the Fordson) running on the belt for a cider press. Goodness knows how it got here - my friend's family firm was an agent for them and I seem to remember they were hard enough to sell in England.

An appropriate job for an old pickup truck, a few years back:
Probably more appropriate than this use of an Austin Devon, in a different year:
And the pickup again, this time carting a pile of handy bits and pieces:

I got a Christmas tree in my Bitter SC a few years ago, on the passenger seat sticking out of the window. No picture I'm afraid.Probably more appropriate than this use of an Austin Devon, in a different year:
