Gallery.
A pic of a car popped up when I came on here. It was from the Gallery and it prompted me to check for pics of older cars on SH. The car, a pre-war Czech Tatra, has an air cooled rear mounted V8. I saw one on a TV program some time ago, owned by Jay Leno who reckoned it was a bit of a handful to drive....really!.... Apparently, he was invited to join a Tatra Car Club in the UK and was told they have a news letter and access to spare parts. When he asked how many members they had, the reply was "Four, if you join"!
Tatra were quite ahead of the times in the 1930s, with their air-cooled engines, one being a OHC V12. These days, trucks are their only vehicles being built.
