I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

He definitely liked cars, he brought a 58 Jaguar XJ6 (I think) over to the USA when we were returning from the UK in 1962 where he had been working for 6 years. I was born in London but only lived there about 6 months.Cool pic Wheelhop !! So was your Dad a motorhead in his youth ?
The company he worked for as an engineer (Chicago Bridge & Iron Co.) was involved with Liquid Natural Gas storage which the Blue Flame was powered by.

Was it one of these beauties (MK1 or MK2) the " get away" car of choice at the time for bank robbers and jewellery thieves. The XJ series didn't starrt until 68. Your pops had impeccable taste.

Turbine? That's not a turbine...This was news to me. Maybe they can bring it back someday ? thenextweb.com/news/remembering-the-nucl...t-car-that-never-was
This is a turbine!
We have a turbine that lost one of the temperature probe tips and in doing so, it took out a blade or 2 in the process. We took it out and handed it over to GE to make the repairs.
Don't be ridiculous! It's only a flesh wound!
