Greay stuff Craig. BD is right about the first one, has a classic look. But, 
no, 
they aren't cliches; certainly not the gear with the staining. In most yards 
it 
would either be covered in grease or cleaned up. That gives it a certain 
texture 
and extra quality; good seeing.

Look forward to seeing more
