1928 Graham Paige











On my daily walk on the beach, at the south end of Agonda beach, there is usually a collection of cars and trucks that have driven overland from europe. Today I noticed a very unusual car, and had to go and have a look, and from the photos above you can see a 1928 Graham Paige, with a really cool family, They are from Argentina and have been travelling round the world for 12 years in this great old car, when they started it was just the two of them, they now have 4 children travelling with them in the car. The car is amazing, still on the original wooden spoke wheels and engine. News story here from last year, sorry it's the Daily Mail - click  . They fund the trip through sales of their books, shameless amazon plug for the book. I haven't read it, but it may interest some of you out there. Spark Your Dream Book The last photo is some of the cars and trucks  that have come overland from Europe, it's always a strange collection, ranging from professional conversions to others that look like they have been put together in a shed. Overland from Europe is something I would recommend to anyone.
