Confusion

Autumn clean up
You have not seem many posts on this blog for a while. But we have been busy helping our friends moving cars and junk from their shed. This very early Austin 1800 "Balanza" was moved to a new home. Old engines were moved. Even the CJ5 hauled my spare engine to our shed. I think this could be […]
Mini 100 HLE 1984
Here we have another family heirloom. This is a Mini 1000 HLE, bought new in 1984 and still in the family and running great! Now it is our turn to take care of this little gem.Feels right at home with the Sevens. Though this is a later Mini, the first Minis were of course called […]
Husqvarna Combina 3010
This is a rather more modern machine than most of the machines in our collection. This one was bought new probably around 1967 and now we have inherited this family heirloom. That means we know where it came from and who used it, so it deserves a special place in the collection. It comes with a […]
Singer 15 NL-K "Nostalgia" series Sewing machine
This is another interesting find. I didn't find it myself but received it as a kind donation to the ever expanding Sewing machine display. The machine design is very much like a Singer 15 should be, but it looks brand new and extremely shiny. There are differences that might point to the possibility of this one […]
"Wilhelmina" sewing machine
I found this "Wilhelmina" branded sewing machine. I had seen one or two offered for sale, but never realised there were at least three versions. This one seemed the oldest version with a picture of the Dutch queen Wilhelmina who reigned from 1898 to 1948. This shows a young Wilhelmina, so it could be this […]

Looks like summer is finally over. Look at the sky today!
Market Garden 75th anniversary: convoys and army camps
To commemorate the 75th anniversary of operation Market Garden, several groups of collectors of military vehicles and reenactors staged convoys and camps along the famous route from the south of the Netherlands to Nijmegen. We visited the final camp of the (mostly British and Belgian)"Liberation Task Force" in Slijk Ewijk and the next day we […]
Morris Minor Hubcap tool
Originally a suitable tool to remove the hubcaps on a Morris Minor came with your car and if lost you can buy a small tool for this for very little money. Still, these tools seem to get lost easily and people try to remove their hubcaps with a screwdriver. This invariably damages the paint and makes the […]
Morris Minor tapered front hub bearings.
Even though the Minor has been very reliable and enjoyable during the past events, there still is this annoying vibration under braking. As the hubs seem to show a definite wobble I decided a set of better hubs with new bearing would be a good idea. I got these tapered bearings and a set of modified […]
Morris Minor Betuwe rit Leerdam
Our Minor joined a cheerful group of fans of the iconic Morris Minor car enjoying a rally in the glorious sunshine in the historic town of Leerdam. The leader of the pack was this beautiful 1939 Morris Eight.
