License plate set

 In Ontario, 1966 was the last year the Ministry of Transport required 3 license plates on a motorcycle. One on each side of the front wheel and of course the rear. Predictably, complete sets are rare these days and rather expensive.

Honda Motocampo

The unit fit in the trunk and was intended to be used as a "last mile" commuter. 53,000 units were made and they are considered to be a collector item now. They were never imported in North America.

Cutaway from How to Keep Your Volkswagen Rabbit Alive: A Manual of Step-by-Step Procedures for the Compleat Idiot.

Not your average cutaway drawing of the VW Rabbit engine and the illustrator is not R. Crumb. This was an illustration Peter Aschwanden did for the book How to Keep Your Volkswagen Rabbit Alive: A Manual of Step-by-Step Procedures for the Compleat Idiot. by Richard Sealey. It followed an earlier book by John Muir called How to Keep your Volkswagen Alive with technical drawings done in the same 60's counterculture style.  His drawings are accurate but not technical in nature, they really make mechanical work seem less intimidating. Anyone in the sixties or seventies trying to keep his VW running would have felt completely at home with the style.

Diamond wrench

 The wrench seems to be of reasonable quality, the raised panels look familiar but the stamping seems crude and overdone. I don't think it's from the Diamond Calk company. and I suspect it's a product from India or China though the CoO is not marked.
