one family owned 1928 Mercedes-Benz 26/120/180 ‘S’ Type Sports Tourer up for grabs at auction



parked in the same garage since the 1930’s, and laid up since the 1950’s, its unworn 1928 logbook evidences a passage of ownership within the same family throughout.

Found on http://www.sportscardigest.com/mercedes-s-type-offered-at-bonhams-goodwood-revival-2012/ via the weekly Vintage Racing League newsletter

1966 Unimog flatbed tow truck... with an innovative tilt rear wheel assembly that is brilliant





 sorta makes you wonder why this didn't become more common as a design... it would be very useful in a small scale for wheelchairs, motorcycles, boats, jet-skis etc




 the above is the rear wheel hubcap
I don't remember ever seeing anything like this before! Proves to me that there are still cool vehicles to see, but they aren't coming to many shows, and I have to keep going to shows I haven't been to in order to find them
