I was on vacation in The Netherlands last month and saw some cool and uncommon cars. Thought I'd share them with you all and hope you enjoy these pictures.
There are enough pictures I'll split into two posts. Here's the second:
I was wandering through Maastricht and came across Garage Jan Jacob (https://www.garagejanjacob.nl), an impressive, very old-school car shop specializing in "Oldtimer and Classic Car Service." The one guy there was focused on reassembling a cylinder head and didn't want to chat, but graciously let me look around and take pictures for 20 minutes. It was an amazing place!Yes, that's an Isetta under the cover. And a disassembled older 911. I don't know all the vintage motorcycles. The Jaguar lookalike isn't a Jaguar, but easier to identify than the yellow car in my first post. Who knows it?
Enjoy!
One of the many XK 120 replicas/kits ?
That's a big building. Was it an aircraft hanger?

It sure looks like one, but definitely not. First, the narrow end faces a normal, busy city street, with other buildings tight on either side.(Couldn't see the back). It's not very wide, either. More like a greenhouse, since it has those skylights. Here's front entrance - it's just right on the street.
Is the Triumph TR3 supposed to be the Jag looking car? At least I think it's a TR3, or could be a short door TR2, can't tell without seeing the grille.
Was the AC a Bristol or AC powered car?
Nice finds. Thanks for sharing!
I'm not sure what model is the small yellow car on the lift. The big Jaguar-looking saloon is actually a Rover!

The yellow car is a Triumph TR2. The rear skirts were a very rare factory option and required that the car have steel wheels. Very nice!
Very cool! The Suzuki bike is interesting...looks like it could be an old race bike, or possibly a more mainstream model modified...mid/60's?
Thanks for sharing!
