Vintage car and motorcycle photos.

I found this guy on Ebay.  The following images plus hundreds more can be bought in larger sizes and printed from the original negatives on glossy paper.  For a link click here.












Who thought this was a good idea?!

Not sure which is more disturbing, the trigger or the where you fill it!

NSU factory postcard.

This image was included with factory sales literature for NSU motorcycles.  Not sure but, it looks like it could be a race bike made to sell to the general public.

Vintage arch frame.

Sprocket looks similar to a bicycle I own made by Great Western.

Cartercar company 1905-1915.

Cartercar had 3 homes before its demise in 1915.  The first location was in Jackson Michigan, the second was in Detroit and the final location was Pontiac (pictured).  The company was bought by GM in 1909 and the Cartercar was discontinued in 1915.  GM used the Pontiac factory to build Oaklands which were deemed a more desirable product.
