"Great Cars in Great Places"

Post by Robert Brennan » Sat Aug 03, 2013 4:05 am

This topic is lifted directly from the TR Register. Members are encouraged to send in pics of their cars in local settings.
We are fortunate to live in a small coastal Maine town that has park right down the road on Casco Bay. On Thursday evenings, there is a free concert at the gazebo. I don't think the is a prettier place to have a picnic in the summer, but I hope you will disagree and send in your pics.

How local is local? This is a day trip into wine country. I'll try to find something closer to the homestead.

Hi Steve,
I noticed your windshield wipers are down in the picture. Here is a simple device I made out of stainless steel wire, works great to hold the wipers up (just need one).

They are down because the pivot is too worn for the pinch collar to hold them in place. Just something I've been meaning to get to that I never will. I just call it a pre-war homage. ;)

If the parts are in good order, you shouldn't need anything to hold them up!
