Duncan's restoration of this 1911 renault makes any bicycle restoration seem quite unremarkable

The renault was a mail car out of the railhead at Ilfracombe from early in the last century. The parts remaining were spread out over a property near Longreach and it had been cut up to use the motor on a welder which is where it still was when Duncan started on it. His wife saw the bonnet being used as a doghouse and thought she should mention it to Duncan. Mr. Renault is an interesting story too.

I do remember buying this though. Quite nice jazz flute if I can remember back to 1978. Back when I'd go to the music store every week after payday and buy a record. This one was almost just for the cover : )

I just had a fantastic holiday in late Autumn and thought of this forum so many times. Whether it was looking around Jeff's place in Oregon (he used to run Third Hand/Loose Screws) or sitting in a London cafe watching Bromptons go past with an occassional Dawes and Bickerton, or anywhere in Italy. It was awesome except for the flight home and delightful jetlagged 5 hour stopover in Hong Kong.
BTW last I heard Jeff (who retired this year) at Loose Screws had unexpectedly sold the website and leftover stock to a guy who plans to start the business up again.
You might guess what they manufacture here... not retro but cool...as was a tour of the factory

How many bikes did you buy while you were away?
Sounds like you had a great trip.
Cheers
