Putting stuff away in the garage...

Putting a bunch of drafting tools away in the drafting tool drawer...





All this stuff needs to find homes...

These can come in handy in certain situations...

Same with these long punches...



Military signal meter...

Toyota 40th anniversary in the US gift to employees.

Original Mini gauge (this was the only gauge in the car; this one is in km/h so most likely for the European market).
Reads up to 150 km/h (about 93 MPH).

Isle of Man TT and 24 hours of Le Mans patches/stickers...


Indian motorcycle foot pads (may be around 90 years old).


The distributor address is Torrance, CA (where I work).

Old Kodak slide storage with a dozen flip out compartments.



Dinky



This E-type coupe is in mint condition.




Dinky Jaguar SS 100

Perfect candidate for a restoration (Dinky).

Plastic Ferrari shark nose (156) F1 car made in Hong Kong (with Lotus colors!).
Truck/trailer is 60s Matchbox.


Slot Car

Broadway red-car trolley and shoebox Ford Dinky.

Another good candidate for a paint job.

Missing headlamps and the engine cover louvers/glass.

 

Thursday, April 29, 2021 -- Manhattan Beach Pier

Outdoor dining platforms where the meter parking used to be.
This is right next to the pier area.
The reverse direction is a straight shot down the pier...



Usually stop at one of the benches on the other side but they were occupied when I arrived.
Much less windy today that the past few days!
