a Henderson? Nope, a computer graphic

this image is from a gallery that exhibits the above bike in a range of colors... but the shifter handle and exhaust are different from the black bike we've all been surprised by, also the real bike has the engine below the fairing

Which I posted in a gallery at http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2013/10/design-can-be-beautiful-thing-shame-so.html

and a full gallery of the black bike at http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/07/1936-henderson-at-rhinebeck-grand.html


and before it was restored it was the following:

So I conclude the yellow is a computer rendered image. 

sweet. Just a pretty, simple, nice wood trimmed trailer

Finally some common sense appears in the "I've got a bigger grill badge than you do" competition between Chevy Ford and Dodge

Chevy engineer Richard Quinn discovered that cutting out the bowtie area results in 3 cu feet more airflow to the radiator and 2 degrees of cooling

Very interesting design/concept of constantly variable transmission

The hemisphere under the motor has a variable pitch, and the more vertical the angle, the faster the vehicle will be propelled. The more horizontal, the slower, based on the contact of the circumferance of the hemisphere. Pretty genius level thinking... but the amount of lost energy/ineeficiency was probably pretty high

Found on http://strangernn.livejournal.com/829704.html and no year or manufacturer is given, just that it came from France

Well designed trunk, a Toyota camry

First thing I noticed... its BIG

With a great styrofoam organizer and support for the luggage carpet.. and floation device in case of flood!

and the pull tab to lift the carpet up has a terrific latchy piece that hangs onto the trunk rim to free up your arms to pull out the spare, or put in the flat

and a 60/40 split fold down rear seat
