That's what the personal licence plate said.

Found and installed some rear fenders. The fenders came off of a 39 or 40, slight differences but they will have to do . I am pleased just to have rear fenders. Planned on installing the rebuilt card today but I cant find the keys for the truck??

Thanks to Bringemback, I can identify this as a 1942 Chev at the Motorist Appreciation Day, a combined car club show on the grounds of Historic Bargoed House, Swansea NSW.

Running a six cylinder engine with the radiator relocated to the rear. There's nothing ahead of the engine but the headlights. Also note right hand drive.

Sweet & simple set-up

I found this bike on ebay. It is a 1966 Harley that was built by a guy named Errett Austin Kathcart Jr. who apparently was very similar to Burt Munro, of "Worlds Fastest Indian" fame.

 

Errett was a machinest with a love of speed, and this bike is the result of 20 years work! Might not look like much but this bike has two speeds...balls out and off! It has some intersting modifications, stoked engine, lightened flywheel, high compression pistons, and a home designed and ground crank!

 

What I thought was really cool, was the fact that the son of the current owner had put up a couple of vids, one is a walkaround but the other is his Dad starting the bike, it sounds so good!

 

Ok, I was thinking about buying it, but it is so tuned for the track it is impossible to ride on the street, but I still love it!
