KVP Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Thanks for sharing the video of this unique, beautiful car. Enjoyed it very much. It would have been even better with English captions. Have Dutch roots but am too many generations from "just the boat off". Unfortunately, my Dutch vocabulary is limited to words that shouldn't be spoken in polite company.

Dandy Dave Posted February 25, 2016 Author Share Posted February 25, 2016 Just think. These were the cars that were being collected and saved from the scraper when AACA was first formed. I don't understand what they are saying either, but if a picture is worth a thousand words, a Video must be worth Millions of words. I have no connection to it, just thought it was a very nicely done video worthy of sharing. Dandy Dave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe in Canada Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Great video and no arguing and drama. This is what I enjoy but I wish it was in English or subtitled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8E45E Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 The excellent and well-done step-by-step video was enough to keep informed and entertained. The lack of knowledge of Dutch did not hinder me from watching with interest; especially considering there was not a whole lot of narrative in it, anyway.

nzcarnerd Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 There is another similar car here in Christchurch, New Zealand. The restorer, Rob Spyker has a distant family connection to the builders the car. Just Google 1907 Spyker. There are several articles and you tube videos.
