When were clip on braces/suspenders first popular?
Hi GHT, no sadly not, I love those cars but that was taken at Goodwood Revival a few years back. I have 1933 Lagonda which is rather fun and hence trying to get together some kit that broadly matches the era of the car. Here's a snap taken at Brooklands last summer. 36396986552_4f9d312c71_k by...- Rich5ltr

When were clip on braces/suspenders first popular?
Trying to dress in the style of the early 1930s would clip on braces have been in use back then or would all men's trousers have had buttons for the braces. Just wondered if clip on ones are a more recent, like 1950s, invention?- Rich5ltr

RAF Reenactors
p.s. Funny how one thing leads to another. While typing that last post I used Google to get the correct spelling of Berchtesgaden but didn't read any of the threads. Now quickly just reading the first hit I found the exact details of his flight, the aircraft reg number, the time he left the UK... -
RAF Reenactors
Hi Chaps, I've only just started exploring this forum and have only posted on the vintage and classic car thread so far. However, my other hobby is flying - no not world war II fighters but gliders. Obviously the Goodwood Revival (mentioned previously) is an annual event for me and one year I... -

I was heavily into MGs as a young lad. My first var, the one I learned to drive in and passed my test in, was an MG ZA Magnette. Funny story about that - I was delivering some stuff to a posh restaurant in London and double parked it outside in their car park. Sod’s law was that someone wanted...- Rich5ltr

Another one of my cars, this one's a 1959 Aston Martin DB Mk III. Kind of the last of the 40s/50s Astons while the DB4 was the start of the 60s cars everyone knows. Handbuilt by men in brown workshop coats in Feltham, England. I kind of think of it as a pair of handmade English shoes and the...- Rich5ltr

OK chaps, I've got a few classic cars but this is a current favourite of mine. It's a 1933 Lagonda 16/80 Special Six Tourer (to give it its full name) - that's 16hp and 80mph. Not that I'll be doing 80mph in a car that 82 years old! She was build in Staines, England just some 10 miles from where...- Rich5ltr
