The plates say this:

Aha...well many of the nicer kits are based on the design of the Lotus 7 , but the car in the pic is definatly not a real Lotus....

The exhaust suggests its one of the many similar kit cars powered by a Japanese motorcycle engine....

They go like sh1t off a stick , and are faster than the Lotus....

Yep , the purple car is fibreglass too.... another kit... underneath all the plastic its a Volkswagen beetle...

You missed the third and fourth plane in that picture.

The second pic is an Antonov an2 ( Antec ) a Russian design made under licence in Poland....

You missed the fact that Antonov is taking care of its baby.

The third pic is Monika....a really nice girl from Radom...

Not Monika but Jessica and not from Radom but from Krakow.

The fourth pic.... don,t know this one.... i only eat bread and cheese and of course beans at my house..... but its some sort of food.....

Do you drink black coffee to it to?

I can,t tell what the other aircraft are in the picture , but in the first pic the bit of tail i can see might be an American Bronco.....

I was guessing the girl with the beer was Monika , as i have never seen Monika without beer....

I like black coffee and black bread.....You can build a house with Russian black bread...!

Looks like older model of Warszawa, but it could be Pobeda or simply an American car, because Pobedas and Warszawas were copies of old American cars.

I could recognize the Warszawa because my uncle had both the older and the newer models, and the shape of the steering wheel and of speedometer has been known to me since I was a small kid.

I love old Russian cars.....

Sadly my Russian girlfriend is not a patriot....she thinks they are rubbish...

In Russia they call such old cars crazy chairs.... She does agree to let me collect a few though....

quite likely....i am not familiar with first war German uniforms , but this uniform is the wrong colour from a German one...

Germans usually wore field grey.....

But this photo was taken in modern times , so not sure....

The war memrorial he is stood in front of is not German i think...

Why not? Do you suggest those reconstruction guys are not pro? Put on whatever they find in scrap metal shops? :):):)

The Austrian army began receiving first shipments of German M16 helmets in November of 1916.When the war ended, 500.000 helmets from German factories were received. In 1917 production of the Austrian model (see picture) was under way and by the end of the war the Austro-Hungarian army received over 500.000 domestically made M16 helmets. Main diffrences between German and Austrian helmets were color, xhistrap and placement of rivets holding chinstrap attachments.
