The 1960 Porsche 356 RSR From *Emory Motorsports
◆ Rod Emory is a legend in the Porsche game, so when he's got a new build, you know it's going to be worthy of an in-depth look. His 356 RSR is no exception to the rule

◆ Combining a 1960 Porsche 356B T5 with a 1990 Porsche 964 C2 is no easy task. For one, the wheelbases are different. But for Emory Motorsports, the challenge was minimal considering the team has experience imitating Dr. Frankenstein. Together, the two are now the 1960 Porsche 356 RSR, a hot rod Porsche with menacing looks and insane performance.

◆ The car is an exquisite example of craftsmanship. The nose and tail bodywork, aluminum deck lid, and one-piece aluminum hood are all hand-formed with the deck lid featuring custom stainless hinges. Added features include the added louvers, stainless steel mesh grille, and intercooler inserts in the steel section of the rear fenders. The rocker panels are modified Porsche 911 pieces while the side and quarter windows are Plexiglass.

Wiesmann new car teaser.....The New 2020 and yet-unnamed model Wiesmann With BMW M5 Engine.......We last heard about the Wiesmann brand, which announced a new partnership with BMW back in October 2017. The cooperation between the two companies is finally materializing into a new model, which will be revealed during the 2019 Frankfurt Motor Show in mid-September
They released a photo of the car under covers, taken at the brand’s factory in the city of Dulmen, in Germany. It shows what appears to be a two-door coupe with a muscular side profile and a front fascia incorporating Wiesmann’s corporate design of the radiator grille.

Hey Torrac! Happy to see your here!!!

The 1920's Radio Flyer Wagon

A 16-year-old Italian boy named Antonio Pasin was one of the millions who immigrated to America from Europe at the start of the 20th century. A skilled carpenter, Pasin headed to Chicago and began building little red wagons out of stamped metal. By 1923, he had saved enough money to create the Liberty Coaster Company, and he began mass-producing the wagon for just under $3. He named it the Radio Flyer in homage to two of his favorite inventions of the time, the radio and the airplane.

Continued Growth After the War
At home, Radio Steel’s war efforts sparked newfound confidence in their line of products. Advertisements began to highlight the classic strength, durability, and dependability of the Radio Line wagons. A new bearing for the wheels, called -Congo- bearings — guaranteed for 1000 miles of smooth, quiet riding – gained special attention for its longevity.

Hiya!

...1932 Indian Chief
✴The Chief was introduced as Indian’s heavyweight competitor to Harley-Davidson and lasted for 31 years. In 1922, 21 years after the company began building bikes, Indian launched the Chief with a 61 cubic inch flathead V-twin. Although a larger 74 cubic inch bike, called the Big Chief, was an option.

✴Indian remained faithful to the principle of a flathead, and in doing so escaped some of the pitfalls that Harley-Davidson encountered in their efforts with overhead valve designs.

✴The Indian was actually rather unconventional, with its left-hand twist grip (apparently so that policemen would be able to use their pistols with their right hand), a foot clutch, hand shift and the ignition advance controlled by the right handlebar grip. A 3-speed gearbox was standard, but a *Police Package 4-speed gearbox and a reverse gear were options.
... Hope all is well.....Have a great weekend.....Stay safe.
