A little off the subject, but this is a small logging engine that a local club keeps running, offering rides and educational seminars for those interested.

That 1940 Ford Deluxe convertible herr_oberst posted on the previous page reminds me of the one Lumpy Rutherford drove in the 'Leave it to Beaver' TV series.

Recent car spotting ↓
This is one of just ten LS3V8-powered Drakan Spyders built back in 2015. Saw it up near Alice's Restaurant (yes, there really is such a place) in Woodside, CA.

I arrived there once on the way to southern CA for a motorcycle ride before they opened and the new owner let me in and made me breakfast.
