Stone's Pig Garage rat rod, has some cool stuff to check out

Maybe a tractor grill, but I like it, and great placement of the headlightsNotice the horns on both sides of the firewall by the leading edge of the doors... cool. Great interior, I was instantly admiring the radio, the antique fire extinguisher, speaker grill by the shifer base and those terrific seats made from 1960's lawn chairs I admire any rat rod with a bottle opener and catch can Great

Mazda Mx-5 Miata Cars Parts 7

For the 2001 model year, a facelift to the second-generation MX-5 was released. There were some minor exterior changes, with a press-release of July 18, 2000, announcing the changes as "resulting in an even sportier and more forceful look". Some cockpit elements were changed, with the instrument panel gauges receiving a white face and red numbers. The seats were also upgraded, incorporating more support in the side bolsters and taller headrests. Added for top models (designated 'Sport' in the U.K) were 16-inch (410 mm) wheels with 205/45VR16 low-profile tires, larger brakes at the front and rear, additional chassis stiffening braces, a limited slip differential, a 6-speed manual gearbox, and leather heated seats. The upgraded tires and suspension allowed the new model to pull 0.88 g in lateral grip in tests by Car and Driver magazine. The body was strengthened, gaining 16% in bending rigidity and 22% in torsional rigidity. With the minimum of options, the 2001 model weighed 1,065 kg (2,350 lb).

The 1.8 L (110 cu in) BP-Z3 engine was slightly modified and now featured variable valve timing on the intake camshaft. The intake and exhaust system also received a minor upgrade. These modifications resulted in a power output of 107 kW (143 bhp) (Japan and Australia) or 100 kW (130 bhp) (US only). In the United States, Mazda erroneously quoted the power figure for the Japanese and Australian model in early catalogues. Car and Driver magazine and numerous owners confirmed the missing power, and Mazda offered to buy back the 2001 cars due to those misleading power claims. Owners who did not take up the buy back offer were offered an apology and free servicing for the warranty period.

people wonder what the largest displacement factory car engine was, here's the biggest piston engine, and the 2nd n 3rd biggest that I've come across

1910 Fiat S76, the "Beast of Turin", 28.4 liter engine that is about 1730 cubic inches, 4 times as big as my 426 cu in Max Wedge. Try and imagine 4 hemis, 3/4's a hemi, or 6 of the hemi cylinders per cylinder in this aircraft engined straight 6 cylinder. Yeah, that is huge, but made relatively little power or torque because engines weren't as understood and developed in the 1910's.An outrageous

The original was written about on Wikipedia, and seems to be a very difficult story to follow, and that must be why it was editted differently by anyone who could, resulting in every known copy

Auto Insurance Online: Browse Insurance Quotes with a Mouse Click

Today auto insurance online is immensely helping clients by saving their time from getting wasted in meeting different insurance brokers here and there. Just with a single mouse click a person can visit websites of various vehicle insurance providers. Some basic factors are necessary to be considered while choosing sign up an online insurance offer for protecting a vehicle. While filling a form for an online vehicle insurance quote you will have to give some particular details about yourself. These details include your driver’s license number, VIN number, license plate number, previous coverage amounts and previous accident history. These details are compulsory to be supplied to online insurance providers. After supplying these quotes clients can expect reliable and pocket friendly quotes. After obtaining quotes of auto insurance online clients can quickly get their policies processed. Insurance seekers should be clear about the amount of coverage currently needed by them.

The rate of premium on a chosen auto insurance online plan will depend upon the insurance coverage required by the client. Now to find and choose the most suitable insurance quotes clients will be required to sit in front of a computer and visit various websites of online insurance providers. They will have to log in to these websites and fill many inquiry forms to get suitable quotes. Of course this task is tedious and a lengthy one, but a person must do it for getting a genuine offer of an online vehicle insurance plan. While filling online quote forms all information concerning home address, email address, phone number, occupation and monthly income is to be provided by clients correctly. One thing about auto insurance online plans is that clients cannot ask all questions in one to one from all companies. In this aspect local insurance brokers prove better than online insurance providers.

While signing up an auto insurance online plan details of safety and security is very important. So clients should fill the section concerned with this info at a vehicle insurance website. They should also give correct info about their current housing status. Some online insurance providers investigate about previous legal conduct of a prospective policy buyer. They may ask about previous criminal history, legal case or conviction and traffic violations with penalties if any. After filling these details at a website of auto insurance online services clients should click on the submit button below the auto insurance online form. Buying online vehicle insurance has many benefits. All quotes are sent the same day by mail. Client’s don’t have to meet all insurance providers personally. All terms and policy format is in front of the insurance buyer and he can choose to sign or not. These online plans can be compared easily with each other.

The 2012 Tesla S

Tesla has by now made three “alpha build” Model S cars and all of them were assembled at the company’s head office in Palo Alto, sunny California. The bodies of the car were made by a dealer located at Michigan. The company will test these cars to learn the good and bad parts of the subsystems and components. Hopefully, in the near future Tesla Motors will enter the “beta builds” stage by production the cars at its factory located in Fremont, California. The cars that will roll out of the factory will be most likely used for federal crash-testing and documentation as well as for various additional tests and system inclusion.

The Tesla S will feature an aluminum body and the company targets a curb weight of about 4,000 pounds, alike to the Audi A8, another all-aluminum model that is considered to be a benchmark for Tesla’s car. Another promise made by the company regards the fact that the S will have the “best in class” aerodynamics from a body designed internally with the aid of Franz Von Holzhausen, the guy responsible for the beautiful Pontiac Solstice and for the bold Mazda Furai concept car. In addition, the aerodynamics of the car will be further tested by Robert Palin (ex Williams F1 driver) and Shaun Johnson (ex Ferrari driver).

The officials at the company promised some time ago that the S will be able to offer a range of up to 300 miles. In addition, they said that the car will feature all the extravagance of a BMW 7-series and space for seven passengers. Speaking of the interior cabin, I in fact doubt that seven people will fit in the car, perhaps five adults and two midgets. Moving on, the company acknowledged $465 million from the United States Department of Energy for building the S model.

Was better looking from the factory... but this guy went to great lengths to make it look his way (why do people like the aftermarket hood portholes?)
