Incorporated into an article on the main site, and uploaded to Youtube also, the first in a series of one-minute videos about old-car-related items.
Today's looks at a rare old tin, hosted inside the back of big Dodge.

The plan is to continue producing a series of short videos and uploading them to Youtube, so that they can be embedded within specific page(s) over on the main OCC site. The latest in this "One-minute Memorabilia" series is for an item relating to Notwen oils.

Joining the Mystery Car photos page today, and on Youtube now, is a short video about a photo of an unidentified car that a visitor to OCC sent over recently. If you know what it is, give everyone else a few days to reply before posting the id please Smile I'll post a larger version of the following snippet in the relevant photos thread now.
