Nmza VETERAN and VINTAGE MOTORING BEA D IBBBLS NmZa VETERAN AND VINTAGE MOTORING SEPTEMBER, 1966 "HORSELESS CARRIAGE" In 1893 the first gasoline pow ered motorcar in the U nited States cruised down the main streets of Springfield, Mass., at a speed of five mil es an hour! This car was mad e by two brothers , Charles E. and J. Frank Duryea. In 1896 Henry Ford drove his first car out. of the machine shop in Detroit. Later, his system of machine-made, interchangeable parts, and assembly line production, put. motorcars within the price range of the man-in-the-street. By the beginning of the 20th century, 8,000 motorcars were re gistered in the United States. These were powered by stea m, gasoline or electricity, and even then they did not look much like the original "Horseless Carriage." Some of the laws passed in the early days of the motorcar make us chuckle today. For instance, one community rul ed that if a horse refused to pass a motorcar the driver of the car mu st "take the machine apart •.. and conceal the parts in the grass". In som e places motorcars were banned entirely, and angry farmers guarded their livestock with shotguns against these "contraptions of the devil." It is easy to se e that early motorists were indeed brave pion eers, often running risks that would be hard to imagine today, for they also had to contend with the discomfort of rough roads, open driving seats and temperamental engines. Times have changed and those first motoring enthusiasts would be the first to appreciate the advances made both in car and tyre design since th e exciting, stimulating days of the "Horseless Carriage." 1 } S 1 FIRESTONE Tyres, since the earliest days of motoring, have f set the standard of reliability, economy and safety. Today's motorist, f\ like his father and grandfather before him, looks to Firestone for EXTRA mileage and EXTRA reliability. rt F 51 Beaded Wheds is th e voice of th e Vinta ge Car M ov ement in N ew Z ealand and of th e Clubs whose efforts are fostering and eve r wide ning th e int erest in th is movement and form rallying points for that eve r increasing band of enthusiasts.

  • Coventry in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography
    Coventry in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography is the national record of people who have shaped British history, worldwide, from the Romans to the 21st century. The Oxford DNB (ODNB) currently includes the life stories of over 60,000 men and women who died in or before 2017. Over 1,300 of those lives contain references to Coventry, whether of events, offices, institutions, people, places, or sources preserved there. Of these, over 160 men and women in ODNB were either born, baptized, educated, died, or buried there. Many more, of course, spent periods of their life in Coventry and left their mark on the city’s history and its built environment. This survey brings together over 300 lives in ODNB connected with Coventry, ranging over ten centuries, extracted using the advanced search ‘life event’ and ‘full text’ features on the online site (www.oxforddnb.com). The same search functions can be used to explore the biographical histories of other places in the Coventry region: Kenilworth produces references in 229 articles, including 44 key life events; Leamington, 235 and 95; and Nuneaton, 69 and 17, for example. Most public libraries across the UK subscribe to ODNB, which means that the complete dictionary can be accessed for free via a local library. Libraries also offer 'remote access' which makes it possible to log in at any time at home (or anywhere that has internet access). Elsewhere, the ODNB is available online in schools, colleges, universities, and other institutions worldwide.

    The Tradsheet Founded 1967 Are we all ready for another season then? Newsletter of the Traditional Car Club of Doncaster February/March 2019 1 Editorial The clocks go back the weekend I am writing this, the sun has put in an appearance or two already and we have started the season with a breakfast meeting at Ashworth Barracks with a good turnout. Club nights have been very enjoyable all winter with a good num- ber coming along to enjoy each other’s company, some to stay on for the quiz but lighter evenings are on their way and the number of classics in the car park are increasing nicely already. Rodger Tre- hearn has again provided a list of events further on, he has entry forms at all club nights and the information is also on the club web- site, see Chair’s chat for more on that. Planning for the show at the College for the Deaf is well under way and we have fliers for you to give out to get another brilliant attendance. This raises a lot of money for charity and also helps our club fi- nances but, primarily, it is a great day out and is where we do the main club trophy judging. For those who won trophies last year, could you get them back to the club by the end of May please for engraving and getting ready for the show. If anyone needs them collecting, please let me know and I can organise that. We have another club event at Cusworth Hall on 12th May with a car limit of 40 and you must be there by 12 noon and not leave before 4pm to ensure public safety.

  • Periodicals by Title
    I think this is now the largest list of books and magazines in the world on Motor Vehicles. I think I maybe the only person trying to find and document every Book and Magazine on Motor Vehicles. This is a 70+ year trip for me all over the world. Some people have called this an obsession, I call it my passion. This has been a hobby for me since I was about 10 years old. I don’t work on it everyday. I don’t do this for money. I don't have any financial help. I have no books or magazines for sale or trade. I do depend on other Book and Magazine collectors for information on titles I don’t have. Do you know of a Book, Magazine, Newsletter or Newspaper not on my list?? Is my information up to date?? If not can you help bring it up to date?? I depend on WORD-OF-MOUTH advertising so please tell your friends and anyone else that you think would have an interest in collecting books and magazines on motor vehicles. I am giving my Book and Magazine Lists to Richard Carroll to publish on his web - site at www.21speedwayshop.com take a look.. All I am collecting now is any issue of a title. If you are the first to send me a copy of a magazine I don’t have I will thank you with a mention under the title. Because of two strokes and a back injury from falling down the stairs this is about all I can do now.

    GB0154 1978/143 Northamptonshire Record Office This catalogue was digitised by The National Archives as part of the National Register of Archives digitisation project NRA 22316 The National Archives NORTHAMPTONSHIRE RECORD OFFICE Records of Grose Holdings Ltd., Motor Engineers, Coachbuilders and Automobile Distributors, of Queens Park Parade, Kingsthorpe, Northampton, Accession 1978/143 Mr. Joseph G. Grose,who began work as a leather currier in Ambush Street, St. James' End, Northampton became interested in bicycle racing, breaking national records on his "Penny Farthing" bicycle. As his interest in bicycling grew, he decided to start his own business to build end repair cycles in a small lock-up shop in St. James' End. During the 1880's, he became friendly with J.K. Starley, a noted cycle racer and the designer of Rover cycles, for which Joseph Grose became the Northampton agent. With the national craze for bicycling, Joseph Grose moved his business to 63, Gold Street selling several well known makes of bicycle and his own models from the West Bridge Cycle Depot. In 1897 Mr. Grose invented the Grose patent gear case. This case, made of patent leather, covered the cycle's driving mechanism to protect ladies skirts from catching in the chain. The case was shown at the Stanley Cycle Show at Crystal Palace, London and sold in large numbers to the Coventry Cycle Manufacturers. It was so successful that the Grose Gear Case Company Ltd. was formed in July, 1897 to manufacture the case. The case was later used to cover the greasy chain drives of early motor cars, so enabling long-term production of the gearcase.

  • Coastal Classics
    CHAIRMAN’S CHAT. Coastal 39s 5d As I sit here writing this, I reflect on this current year of isolation for many and restrictions for others. Its been a year of being able to get those necessary jobs done on the classics for Classics many with the lack of shows. Let’s hope we can see an end to this and hopefully next year be able to get out and about again. Somehow, we will soon have a committee meeting, social distanced of course, to decide on events for next year and to whether the AGM, scheduled for February can go ahead or do we postpone it for a few months. The later looks likely but we shall try to keep you informed of any necessary developments. The same will Covid Car Show apply to our Annual Dinner which was due to take place in January. Should you be wondering why you have not received a reminder about your Membership well its been decided that this will be suspended for this year and hopefully will start again in 2021. For those that have paid this year a free year next year will be given too you. As you can imagine the lack of our two shows has hit us fairly hard so we shall have to postpone our usual donations to charities this year with reluctance I must admit. What more can I say other than keep safe and let’s hope this dreadful virus comes to an end soon so we can get out and about again and back to normality? Your Chairman.
