Cool things found in the blog "Progress is fine, but it's gone on for too long"

 Beer run! Filling up belly tanks with beer for the guys that just stormed the beach at Normandy

 probably looks like any old tank at first, but then, did you see that there are 4 tracks? Not the usual two

 Peter Sellers

 yup, it's a real Bugatti, factory racer

 amphib plane, stored in a hanger because getting it flying would take 2 fortunes and a winning mega millions lotto ticket

the 1936 Henderson before the restoration http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/07/1936-henderson-at-rhinebeck-grand.html

 terrific album cover art

 the cat tracks added onto the tractor give it so much more traction

a wheel pattern only used on Canadian trains, it looked familiar to me, and I remembered the train at the Nethercutt museum http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2011/05/private-pullman-palace-railcar-century.html

Nimbus, not just a Harry Potter broomstick, it's a Danish motorcycle company from 1919 to 1959

 biggest prop/kick stand I've ever seen.

1926 Scott, restored and lettered by Von Dutch, and bought by Steve McQueen, it was one of 6 bikes at the Steve McQueen car show this weekend, but in my view, the coolest vehicle there

telescoping front forks, a v twin 2 stroke engine, and liquid cooled engines... in 1929. That's a bit ahead of the competition for 1929.

 The company was a winner in the 1914 Isle of Man race. That's highly reputable!

 The bike gets restored and eventually purchased by Steve McQueen.  He gave it back to the restorer and pinstriper of the bike, Kenny Howard aka Von Dutch.

I didn't even notice when I took these photos, but there is pinstriping around most of the body lines or panel edges... they are that perfect, subtle, and unobtrusive.

Why so many photos? I want to ensure you are looking at the best I can do to make this the most thorough photo gallery of this bike anywhere.
