    Looks like '60's England. Can't tell for sure, the yellow car might be a Morris.

    I'm pretty sure that the yellow car is a Triumph Herald. Irritated that I can't hazard a guess as to the other car.

    Yep, you're right.

    Back in '87 I was part of a study team developing GSE (Ground Support Equipment) maintenance and repair methods at the UPS Louisville air hub. A study team posting was required to be promoted to manager. There were no camera restrictions at that time. I took many pics and kept them in a binder in the study team office.

    UPS supervisors/managers were pretty anal back then. One ops guy looking through the pics found this one and wanted a copy. He wanted to enhance the image, locate and fire the guy for taking his hands off the Tug steering wheel. I refused to give up the picture.

    Some places I worked I took photos, other places I didn't -- i.e., in the latter cases, I respected some pretty pointed requests that we not. ;)
    I do wish I had pictures (not to mention a video) of the very sophisticated (and very expensive) robotic platform that we designed (to some extent had designed, to our spec) and had built to automate host cell protein assays in my high-throughput analytics lab at Wyeth. It was installed and went online just (as in days) before Pfizzer bought us. :#
    It was wicked cool.

    They made them things for quite a while. My high-speed, two-track machine was reanimated from several organ donors that differed considerably cosmetically.

    I have seen old Hammond tube amps look just like those.

    Well it was a serious question. From what I can barely make out they look similar to some my uncle had from an old Organ. Some I hear bring good money.

    Sorry, I thought it was a reference to the reference to... umm... HornPub.
    No they are not organ amps. The guy's a DIYer - on steroids. or maybe acid. or both.
    I guess he's very active & well known on DIYAudio, but he just popped up on hifihaven.
