1934 White bus that once was a Yellowstone Park tour bus

















1922 touring body by Smith & Waddington in Sydney, Australia ... real unusual, it's called a charabanc


This is built on a truck chassis from White vintage 1922 and the huge body built by Smith & Waddington in Camperdown, Sydney, Australia.

But this body type is called a Charabanc, the same name is also used for buses with open bodywork that was common at this time. This White charabanc had room for 15 people and had been ordered by Mr Day. He used it for New South Wales Tourist Bureau excursions and adventures in the wild Australia.

the cool tagline of Mega Moto is : Cars, Trains, Motorcycles, Planes, Airships & Other Awesome Modes of Conveyance

A WW1 mobile carrier pigeon coup... yes, that was the best communication technique they had available in the field of battle .
I've posted somehting about this before, and just can't recall what... beyond there was just one that made it through the years and still exists, was a 1920's car but only on 2 wheels, the little buggy wheels are for holding it up at stops

Buckminster Fuller's Dymaxion, one of two to survive, probably number 3 of the trio Fuller made. One was found in the backyard of a Arizona suburb in the early 70's by a Car Life reader after they did a story on the Dymaxions, by a fan of Fullers interesting cars. It wasn't bought by a collector, though Harrah's buyers tried, a couple college students got money together and then let it be shown in Museums in the US... more on this story in another post.
