Mexico? Where sedans are sometimes too wide and too heavy?
The guy watching is gettin' outta there..

Could be Mexico with that name. They have stuff like that in Australia but right hand drive over there.

I wonder how many white shirts and neck ties are out on the road today?

Thanks Two Short Planks. Cellar Info from Denver via Glasgow/Edinburgh!
There seem to be a dozen or more Rio Grande Trucking companies in the US with more in Mexico.
I can afford to look at the pic, but I think I'll skip the hard copy.

Yes, thank you sir, I've been wondering about that rig.
People do strange things with motorized machines, eastern Europe gets into it quite often...

The text said 12 bottles but I only see 10.
This father & son team seem to have free time. They also own two very expensive old MB tractors.

I'd seen a number of the cast iron radiators with the little compartment for warming plates, soup, or buns, depending on who you believe.

I wasn't greatly impressed until I saw this one.

Warm your feet, dry your boots, and a perforated flat top to warm, dry, preheat, etc.

Those are beautiful. I love our radiator heat.

In most parts of California, those are as rare as snowshoes.

Many business men & women are clever and innovative, at least they were before personal injury/liability lawyers and business insurance companies beat them about the head and shoulders until they quit.
Here's something that's too risky today...

Tardigrades (water Bears) are tough but tiny, none of the 1500 species adults are more than 0.5 mm or about 0.020 inch long.
They are everywhere on Earth from mountain tops to ocean depths. I think they look like an 8 legged virus.
Very strange, their cells don't reproduce, the cells they start with just get bigger.

The toughest MF's around, survive about anywhere.

Some days you shouldn't get out of bed...

That house has a really nice square frame. I don't think they even broke a window.

These look like a expensive time consuming pastime... but fun...

The post war Ford wood trimmed station wagons took a lot of wood.
More than trim, pert was structural.

When I was a kid we had a 1940 Plymouth Woody. If you took the seats out of the back you could haul a sheet of plywood in the back. I learned how to sand on that car.

**Posted by griff** 4/01/2021 5:51 am

Hmmm... electric woody kit car?
