i had a 1966 GMC pickup several years ago that I got when my uncle died. sold it a few years back and have been wishing i hadn't. all my current vehicals have computers on board to make them run. I hate that. can't seem to work on them. This one now is simple to work on. it's not a "66" but almost the same and i like it.
Plastic toy pickup trucks, no maker's mark, in the style of American 'Dime Store' toys. Length 117 mm. I've seen something very similar attributed to Osul of Portugal – it's likely they copied this, in the same way they copied the Lapin coupé. The Osul version has their name on the front number plate. I now suspect these two may be by Luxor Plastics of Amsterdam. Any further information welcome.

This is green and white inkle weaving with black edges where I practiced the "pick up" technique. You pull up threads at the bottom of the shed so they appear at the top of the band. You can also push down corresponding threads on the top so they appear on the bottom of the band, but that's a little too fancy for me right now.

A Ghost in The Machine . I think this term describes some items, particularly mechanical ones that have taken on a personality or a
character, i.e. a kind of magnetism or attraction. Invariably this machine was put together by a skilled technician with diligence and pride of his craftsmanship, together with care and respect for the item he is creating. Through the passage of time the creator of the machine is no longer with us, yet somehow his ghost remains.
The machine's existence is extended due to the love,care, admiration and nurturing by the present owner who has once again given life to the machine.
My favorite car at the show. An Austin pickup truck with a custom bed and hood on a 70's Toyota pickup frame.
