Real unusual things from trailer washers, motorized wheels, to tank track Rolls Royces
Never seen one before, and something about the age of a black and white photo tells me that these are obsolete
I have no idea at all what this is
Ok, but why take it out if you have to add skis?
Really early car phone
Odd stuff on this tow truck
1890's and I was told it's a velocipede
Lenin's 1922 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost snow machine. Most expensive snow machine conversion? or strangest use for a Rolls Royce?
I've never seen a photo of a tractor involved in a car crash
no idea what the motorbike in front is
Never seen a train engine like this... must be for moving train cars around in a train yard

Love the motor wheels... I'd so love to ride one!

Puegeot in 1934, great designed car, looks like the top is coming down
Wipers on the inside and outside... and that might be Ron Howard... like Tere commented, it sure looks like him during the Andy Griffith show
