T3 tin

I just received some pictures from Leif, a member of the norvegian club “Screwdrivers” on wich BBQ I was invited during the weekend of the Scandinavian Callook Classic meeting.
 
The picture shows the tin that was removed from a freshly dlivered delivery 1969 delivery van (yep!-rare-model-delivery-van)
 
Only 34.000km later leif became owner of this one owner low mileage car. Tin will be posed where it belongs in the near future. In the sides of his Kewl Variant that is…

balade des dix chateaux

i did the “walk of the ten castles” two years ago, it was a nice drive through belgium, exploring several old castles in the french region of belgium. here we see the cars stopping at the “water castle of Spontin“. The owner who was in his 80-ies had once a BUGATTI, but had to sell it to finance the maintenance of this huge castle.
 
sadly, i heard on the news several weeks ago that the owner of the castle, for whom i had a great amount of respect, was killed when somebody robbed him for 15 euros.
 
where is this world going ?
may he rest in peace!
