Coolest damn thing you'll see all week. 1913 Harley, heavily optioned,TANDEM !, unrestored, with a quick history and instructions how to start it. WOW
the bike's options are discussed for the first 5 minutes, then the bike is started up and the procedure is wonderfully demonstrated, step by step. (starts at minute 5:30)
Thanks Mike! This is great!

I found a cool website, Mega Moto... I think you are going to love the variety and unique things they post there, here's a sample
the cool tagline of Mega Moto is : Cars, Trains, Motorcycles, Planes, Airships & Other Awesome Modes of Conveyance
A WW1 mobile carrier pigeon coup... yes, that was the best communication technique they had available in the field of battle .
I've posted somehting about this before, and just can't recall what... beyond there was just one that made it through the years and still exists, was a 1920's car but only on 2 wheels, the little buggy wheels are for holding it up at stops
Brockhouse Corgi WW2 camp scooter
1938 Phantom Corsair http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2009/03/1938-phantom-corsair.html
Volkswagen museum bus... I hope to find out more about this
Not sure yet what scoooter this is... looks slightly like a Salisbury
the photography of Gaston Jacquin 1935
A lamboghini and wonder of beauty, the 1963 350 GTV
Above, 1971 Star Streak motorhome
Above, something called the Stiletto
1955 Packard Request
1955 Flajole Forerunner
1915 Senate Subway Railroad under the nations capitol, Washington DC
1924 Amphibious Fusetti
Buckminster Fuller's Dymaxion, one of two to survive, probably number 3 of the trio Fuller made. One was found in the backyard of a Arizona suburb in the early 70's by a Car Life reader after they did a story on the Dymaxions, by a fan of Fullers interesting cars. It wasn't bought by a collector, though Harrah's buyers tried, a couple college students got money together and then let it be shown in Museums in the US... more on this story in another post.
One cool puller, looks like a trailer truck

Above isn't labeled, but looks like a barn find custom

Above the Helica
Above, the 1948 Davis
1910 Ford on Forest Service patrol
One of the fabulous streamliner beer delivery trucks

Above, the Lincoln Futura that Barris based the Batmobile on

Above is a replica by Andy Saunders of the below concept car, the 1958 Ford X 2000
Go see what else they've got! http://megamoto.tumblr.com/
