Last Days Garage Last Days Garage celebrates the last days of the glorious internal combustion engine and the equally wonderful manual transmission.

It's a channel dedicated to all things automotive at the whim of it's eclectic creator. The days of the internal combustion engine (ICE) are drawing to a close. With the demise of ICE we lose the wonderful metal symphony of interconnected science and mechanics to the silence and remoteness of the electric motor. Worse still, we lose the manual transmission.
