York road trip.. Flower power.



Unfortunately we ran out of time to explore the York Motor Museum this time, I took the quick click above as we passed but if you are a lover of vintage cars it's worth a look inside here. The juxtaposition of old vehicles in the museum and new cars on the street appealed, plus I thought how much fun my grandchildren would have in the vintage toy car centre stage and myself in the 🌼 power beauty complete with hood ornament to the left, too cool! I hope your weekend is going well it's a wee bit hot here in Perth, but only for the weekend so I've heard. Happy Sunday, take care and stay safe..

  2. Have not seen a Flower-Power painted car in many decades. When that '40 Ford was painted in the mid-1960s it was only about 25 years old. There is a nice small reflection of you in the car's hubcap. Watched the museum video, and I know you could take better pictures. Next time.

  3. A fine toy car and a Hippy Mobile. Looks like you missed a visit to a fine place, but if you like snow we have about 6" of nice new fluff that is perfect for skiing. -7C too, so you won't work up a sweat. -18C for tomorrow.

  6. You'll have to get a full photo of that flower power vehicle next time. You just like teasing us with a small pic of it. :)

  7. I like that toy car too. It is -14˚C here at 5pm and getting colder tonight and only going up to -17˚C tomorrow afternoon. We could use a bit of your heat!

  11. The toy car is great. They are not usually racing cars.

  12. A friend of mine back in the 60s had a car painted a bit like that. He got so fed up of being stopped by the police that in the end he painted it matt black and lived a less colourful, but unmolested, life.
