Car Shopping "at the Auto Mall"
My wife and I took a trip down to Brown Field, an airport just south of San Diego, near the border. It's also the home of the largest concentration of used vehicle purveyors (ie scrapyards) in the county. We hadn't been down there for about 20 years.
I was amazed to see a Lamborghini, Ferrari and Rolls-Royce in the front row, backed up by a Nissan GTR.
This is the most-commonly seen sort of used car found on Brown Field's Heritage Row.
Cars and parts emporiums all down this mile-long stretch.
Over on the right is the place where they all end up eventually, with a Volvo taking them to their final destiny...
With the COVID-19 lockdown in full effect, many people are turning to motor homes and trailers in order to travel safely. My wife and I examined the stock on offer:
Some reconditioning work would need to be done, I assume.
I do like the vista-cruiser look, but if I was driving I would be able to see through this skylight windscreen anyway.
Thwarted in our efforts to find a new ride, we cruised home.
Manual-wind Credor Spring Drive, model GBLH999, circa 2000.

Had it about 5 years
I’ve had 8 Spring Drives between 5-15 years each. Currently I have 4. None serviced so far. I’ve also had 4 Lotuses, between 5-25 years each. Plenty of service required.
