Here is a set of gorgeous wheel covers I acquired back in the 1980s. I was at a wrecking yard in Northern California where I lived and I saw a beautiful white Rambler station wagon with a chrome roof rack sitting in an "off limits" area. It was perfect, but you weren't supposed to touch it because it was part of some stupid California program to demolish old gas guzzelers. But, this car was perfect- paint shiny, chrome shiny, perfect interior. There were several other awesome cars in similar condition parked along side, but this grabbed my attention because I LOVE station wagons.  I was able to grab these wheel covers - and pay for them as if taken off a "legitimate" car, and they have been hanging in my garage ever since.

They have NO corrosion whatsoever, The chrome is shiny. There is NO curb rash on any of them. A few have some tiny dings that came from the inside  (maybe a pebble got inside) but, there are only 2 or 3 of these dings. One cover has a tiny ding on the edge - not curb rash.

The car these were taken off of  must have been garaged and they have been hanging in a dark garage for 30 years.

Nissan North America has launched production in Tennessee of the redesigned 2013 Altima sedan that it hopes will challenge the family-sedan supremacy of the Toyota Camry. "We didn't put all of the investment into this product and put in all the features with an expectation to be No. 2," said Bill Krueger, vice chairman of Nissan Americas, after the first 2013 model rolled off the line in Smyrna, Tenn., on May 15.

Watch Tesla Model S testing new titanium armor

Wed, 23 Apr 2014

In a missive signed by Elon Musk himself, Tesla announced it would be adding titanium plates and aluminum deflectors to all new Model S sedans and offering free retrofits for the 20,000 or so existing EVs. The company earlier offered an over-the-air software update to raise the ground clearance of the Model S so the car would be more likely to clear dangerous road debris. The actions were in response to well-publicized fires in the electric luxury sedans.
