Me & Fort Jefferson have been out and about today, so any guesses as to where these were taken?



Bonus points for also naming the car in this shot...



This is motoring related mods, so dont move to Pie & Piston, car pics are to follow.

Nah! this was the East German Stasi secret Police, so lightweights compared to the safety camera partnerships biggrin

I have to say, these guys were great, barking orders at people in German, and asking to see papers hehe They even had a checkpoint Charlie set up yikes We were lucky to get out and return to the West you know biggrin
