Who needs steampunk!

What a wonderfully bizarre thing. It's almost as if someone had set out to do everything in the most difficult way possible.

How could it possibly fail?

Thanks for posting that, Duncan. It cannot escape the word "unique" - and that's being kind. But, what an amazing contraption.

Scripps-Booth had something of a name for doing things in a different way to others. Their c1916 Model D had a long stroke V8 engine with just a two bearing crankshaft Huh

I thought at first this thread was a reference to an old flame during my absinthe phase!

Did you used to drink that stuff? Mon Dieu. It was that absinthe that sent old Vincent Van Gogh round the twist. Rumour has it that one night he was sitting at the bar in the Café de Nuit in Arles when his best mate Paul Gaugin came in. What you having mate, says Gaugin, to which Van Gogh replied, I'm fine cock, I've got one here...

OK I'll wait.
