      That Champion can't be very old, but look how dull the chrome already looks. The paint is nice though.

        Back in the days, you could apply a protective varnish to chromium parts to help them stand the winter. I thought it might be the case here. Judging by the license plate, the Champion was three years old.

            • I believe this is the Hamilton factory, but I could be wrong.
