    Classic Safari vehicles!

    Nice.... what year? 2.25 petrol? Here's my '63 Station Wagon, 2.25 petrol. You can see my makeshift tailgate, it normally has the full rear door; tailgate is on when the trop top is off.

    Classic Safari vehicles!

    How long have you had your rig? Looks good. The ultimate item on my 'bucket list' is to ship Grover to Africa and spend quite awhile exploring.

    Safari Express rifle pic thread

    I have a thing for books, have since before I could read as well. I was in college back in the '80s when schools were starting to pull books from their shelves do to 'concerns'. A good friend worked in the library there, she helped me rescue them - when they were removed from the shelf they...

    “WTF’ Hats,” that are hard to believe...

    Here in the States we have immortalized the Hoorah Henrys in the song 'Yankee Doodle' - "...put a feather in his cap and called it macaroni".

    “WTF’ Hats,” that are hard to believe...

    The attached meme came out in early 2020, and every time I see it, all that pops into my head is "Well lads, are we ready for The Royal Ascot this year?".

    “WTF’ Hats,” that are hard to believe...

    True... very true. Yet the hats displayed at the horse races seem to display over-the-top buffoonary at its finest! LOL

    “WTF’ Hats,” that are hard to believe...

    Isn't the whole British horse racing hat thing just a way for Britain's snobbish rich bratts to try and out do each other in a ridiculous way; and prove to the rest of us that "having more money than sense" is alive and well?

    Thanks! Guess I forgot to mention... the mut is Winston, he's our new Rover mut. He's a Pappillon and turned 6 months old the day of the car show.

    Safari Shopping

    Wrangler, as in 'Wrangler jeans' has a line of safari style shirts in their relaxed fit line. Seriously, they scream safari and look like a lot of the safari shirts by upscale suppliers, unfortunately they do not have epaulets - BUT - they are made in Kenya. I got a couple at Walmart for about...

    Christmas decorations.

    Guess I'm slow on the uptake here... didn't even know this thread was here till today! When we decorate we do a mash-up of Victorian and Edwardian. The pic of our tree is from a local historical society newsletter article dealing with 'vintage decorating'. This is the closest we've gotten to...

    Classic Safari vehicles!

    Here's a couple more shots that didn't attach to the other post. Hopefully I'll have a more traditional safari chair and table. Grover is a Station Wagon, so it doesn't have a tailgate. Since I would be driving with items in the back, the law required one - so I built this one out of wood...

    Classic Safari vehicles!

    Forgot to post these... Was asked to enter Grover in or town's annual Spring festival - there are no vintage 4×4s, just modern ones, most of which are jeeps. Ended up winning the 4x4 category. I wasn't able to do justice to the display I wanted due to lack of time and space, so I just tossed...

    Classic Safari vehicles!

    ROTFLMAO!!! Real men drive a stick!!! It's sad that driving a stick has become something of a lost art here in the States. Most are at least use to seeing a gear shift; only a few recognize the button, but most are confounded by the other two levers. Just wait till the 4th one is added!!!

    Hmmm... Everyone needs a righteous pimp daddy hat - just ask Huggy Bear. Oh... and don't forget the matching goldfish shoes!!

    This, as well as three gear levers and three pedals, is my ride's "millennial anti-theft device"!
