Car Night

 We dropped by the local "first Thursday" car night, and being a spectacular summer evening loads of people were out showing off their cars and motorbikes.

This Citroen DS convertible was undoubtedly one of the stars of the show, elegant, sophisticated, like driving around in a luxury armchair.

If understated luxury isn't your thing then maybe the interior of this 60's Ford Thunderbird would definitively be both wild and comfortable.


This lovely Austin Seven, presumably a special and I'm guessing maybe done in the 60's or 50's was really cute.  Unrated with hydraulic front brakes and what looks like a home made independent front suspension

For an amateur boat builder the construction was interesting, door panels and much of the body in ply, with cut outs to reduce weight and then skinned with aluminum sheet. Withsuch a small engine it would need to be light.
