*vintage Johnson Sea-horse Qd-10 Outboard Motor 10 Hp 1949 Great Compression* on 2040-parts.com
Mason City, Iowa, US
This is 1949 Johnson Seahorse QD-10. It was the first year of the QD series which ran for over a decade. Rookie Production. A very popular motor. This is a all original motor. It is not missing any parts or are any of the parts broken. Spectacular. I just sold one of these recently to a very happy customer. It can be found in my past sales and feedback as it was recent. This QD-10 has all the decals and is in much better condition. Like the last one the compression is great. I have not started it. Nor will I try. That will be left to the buyer. The inside seems to be in good shape. Take a close look at the pictures. The only major flaw is that some oil or grease has gotten on to it or something was spilled on it. Not sure exactly what happened. It can be seen in picture 7 and elsewhere. There is some pitting and normal wear which can be seen in the pictures. Other than that this looks to be a very fine and original which is rare condition Johnson Seahorse QD-10 made in 1949. It's serial number is 730753 which is lower than the last one I sold. Take a close look at the pictures and if you have any questions please ask. A guy sent me a message and he thinks that that brown stuff that is melted by the id badge might be the related to the coils. Perhaps the melted case that was around the coils. They would have possibly melted during the summer while being stored. If so the coils might need to be replaced. So this being sold AS IS.

Rolls Royce Wraith Drophead Coupe confirmed for production.
Sun, 03 Nov 2013The Rolls Royce Wraith (pictured) will get a Drophead sibling in 2016 It was always likely that Rolls Royce would take their ‘affordable’ model – the RR Ghost – and make a coupe version. What wasn’t really on the cards is that they would give it a more dramatic style – and a more driver-focused experience – and tag a name from the past on it to create a new Rolls Royce Wraith for the 21st century. But that’s exactly what they’ve done, and the Wraith does seem to be an effective tool for Rolls Royce to extend the appeal of their cars to a new, perhaps younger, demographic.
One Lap of the Web: Forsberg can't stop, won't stop drifting
Tue, 08 Apr 2014-- Jann Mardenborough won the "Nissan GT Academy" back in 2011 and since then has finished on the podium at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, as well as participating in the Infiniti Red Bull Racing driver program with aspirations of Formula One. He explains what it's like to move on from video games -- which he started playing at age 7 -- and transitioning into real sports cars. Mardenborough, it must be said, once drove too fast in British GT to be considered an amateur, but not quick enough to enter the pro class -- and race organizers, who didn't know what else to do, gave him a time penalty so the amateurs could catch up.
