Period motoring accessories & equipment.

Since the dawn of motoring, enthusiastic drivers have sought to modify or accessorise their motor-car with some of the many 'useful' gadgets that were on the market. Some of these accessories and period extras have been given a mention on the car accessories pages, and here I plan to feature some items from my own collection that I've found over the years. Some are very useful, others distinctly less so! The one thing they all have in common is that they were aimed at the driver who felt that the basic car and/or toolkit just didn't offer quite enough, and more was needed to improve the car's efficiency, appearance, or go-faster appearance.

Advertisements for old automobile-related gadgets and tools can be found on these pages. Motoring memorabilia can be found in the collectibles section. Modifications designed to make a car go quicker can be found in the tuning company section.
