Thanks David, ...I took 8 long years to restore it.

Nice Porsche to own...
My wife has a Jaguar XJS, just like this. It's a Pina Farina design. Sweet machine, and 12 cylinders can set you back in the seat (and at the pumps)

I like that. That's quite ingenious! (tape dispenser). I hope the roll though doesn't slide down the post. And what happens if the roll is another diameter or size?

Took that up to the castle a couple of years ago, surprisingly large for as little traffic as there was. I suppose it depends on what events are being held at the castle, though. There are lots of "modernizations" occurring at the castle, not sure that I liked them at all because they were not in keeping with the castle's age at all; but OTOH it was good to see new life being breathed into the castle rather than allowing it to rot into ruin.

Must have been an interesting tram ride, but,sometimes the trend to add the modern to the old works, and sometimes it really doesn't (IMHO)

I think that "the more it's a ruin, the more modern you can be". The Neues Museum refurbishment in Berlin seems to be a good case in point (haven't been there yet myself, but seen photographs).
