That Jenson was lovely, but I really didn't like the mahoosive sun visors, what was that all about? Original owner was a hobbit or were they detachable for eating your dinner off or something?
And on the subject of sun visors I saw this today. They were on the outside before some bright spark decided to bring them inside.
Wiki says sun visors were on the outside of cars until interior mounts were introduced in 1931. That pick up is from 1949 so they obviously were available afterwards for some things. Unless its an aftermarket attachment that folds down completely in front of the windscreen to prep for the Zombie apocalypse, but as a cyclist I'd like to see some slits in it for at least some forward visibility. The little visors on the headlights surely have no use other than to make them look like eyes, which combined with the colour and the shit eating grin/grill make me think of Grommit.
Also saw a nice Saab with some rally spots for a night time rally stage/Islington milk run.
And continuing my recent shooting brake spots, here another, a lovely condition Lancia Beta HPE.
