It's always tense cutting into what's essentially a finished chassis but well worth it I think

How's this for a weird mechanical mishap. My 2cvs door catch snapped off inside the latch causing it to shoot out on the the floor of the car park like a lack luster GI Joe torpedo. Luckily I had a spare

Seeing lots of helmet discourse today so let me weigh in. Sports cyclists should ALWAYS wear a helmet however numerous studies show that for regular people it's little more dangerous than walking and as one of the best ways to get around and lift people out of poverty the fewer barriers the better.

The airstream was actually a copy of the far superior Bowlus Road Chief (which is why they are worth $200K today) penned by the chap who did the Spirit of Saint Luis and id personally love a crack at redesigning it.

Not finished yet but it's got potential and it'll funnel air through the radiator duct nicely

Mosquito has changed so drastically in the last few weeks that im not shocked some people are completely thrown for a loop but this is the in-between state where it stops being what it was and starts being what it will be.

The handsome guy at the wheel was named André Lefebvre. He was a genius engineer, who will design later on the Citroën Traction, 2CV DS and Type H van. A forgotten hero.

If you aren't familiar with Avions Voisin this is their idea of what a Grand Prix car should look like. Quite possibly the maddest car company ever
