You're up late!

 

I'm old, retired and don't have to go to work in the morning.

 

Here are some more images by Lightview Photographic of the 2015 Chateau Impney Hill Climb.....

 

More Lightview with Dougal Cawly in "PIGLET" ....http://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/

We've seen other pictures of this body.It's now owned by Gilles.He's looking for GN chassis.

 

Maurice Mestivier @ Montlhery 1935.

 

Where can one purchase one of those driving suits? The wide lapels are nice and I particularly like the racing fedoras.

 

That museum is a little gem... I pop in every time I'm in Reims.

 

A couple of Gus Mitchell's Amilcars from OZ....

 

Hello Bob,​

As always, nice contribution from your side!
Just - my dilemma: was that aluminium body once presented here in more complete shape, and maybe with chassis, too?
Wonderful engeneering indeed! Good base for unusual proejct.

I especially like the green one and #7 posted by Banjeaux Bob. Thanks for corrupting my mind with more ideas; those sure like a lot of fun!

 

Yes,it was shown here before.I can't recall if it was with a frame or not.

WOW! That thing is beautiful.

 

1908 GP Sizaire & Nau din by Marc.

 

Hello there,​

Early Sizair et Naudin voiturettes always delighted me: not so small - but light, not cycle-car - not real automobille, interesting design and good engeneering... wooden chassis, independent front suspension, gearbox in unit with differential (maybe 2 speeds forward + revers?)...




What could be use of lever on attached phto?

Bob,​

Sometime ago, I "promissed" to show photos of Spanish cyclecars, loving them as really cute and well-engeneered, as this David was...
Some books said that cyclecars were invented before Great War - in Spain! Some poeple liked to make and use gravity racers (down-hill racers, coaster karts) and being bored of pulling them uphill, they install small engines for that. Later, they installed better engiens to drive karts from home to hill and back... Then - they used it everywhere! Other nations saw that and copied them...
Probably just nice legend?
