Condition:Used

 You are bidding on a matching pair of 1912 - 1913 Pierce Arrow kerosene side lights.  Good restorable condition, but not ready for your show car.  Pictures should accurately show condition. Variety of dents and dings; Scratches and chips to forward lenses; one side jewel is missing.  Wick winder is missing from one side. 

Fabricated from from super heavy weight brass; chimneys screw on clean and are straight.  Superlative engineering and construction.  Original nickle plating.  Embossed on the rear of each reads "Pierce Arrow Motor Cars July 13, 1910.  Bottom of reservoir reads "Adams and Westlake Company Chicago - Adlake non-sweating Balanced Draw Lamps".  No evidence these lamps were ever burned.  Unfortunately, they are a victim of 104 years of careless storage.  Regardless, they are impressive lamps that still display exceptionally well.  Paper maker's inspection tag -- with hand-written date -- still affixed to inside of chimney.  Great for parts or restoration.  They are impressive lamps that would be great for any collection. 

Will ship world-wide.  Shipping cost is exact; I do not mark up for packaging and handling.

It’s facelift time for the Citroen C5. The Gallic family car gets a cosmetic fillip, new safety toys and a range of engine revisions to keep it fresh in the face of new competition from the new VW Passat and pepped-up Ford Mondeo. The 153bhp turbocharged 1.6-litre petrol nets lower CO2 emissions, down 14g/km to 153, and economy is also improved, up to 42.2mpg from 39.8.

"The soul of our designing is in Italy," said Silvio Petro Angori, CEO of Italian design house Pininfarina S.p.A. "We will do all styling in Italy – we will not do that in China." But in order to cater to the growing number of contracts from Chinese automakers, Pininfarina will soon begin engineering and product development in China with a center in Shanghai's suburb of Anting. Pininfarina has been working with Chinese automakers since 1996.

Audi A1 e-tron Wankel range-extender EV trial begins

Sat, 29 Oct 2011

Audi A1 e-tron trial begins in Munich If car makers are going to foist electric cars on us, the least they can do is make them as useful as the limited technology permits. And that’s what Audi are doing with the A1 e-tron EV. The Audi A1 e-tron isn’t a daft BEV (battery electric vehicle) with a woeful range at the mercy of weather conditions, instead it’s a range extender EV with a small Wankel engine which kicks-in when the battery charge is used up to increase range.
