1943 Jacobs Radial Engine Table Chrome on 2040-parts.com
Conway, Arkansas, US
I am selling a new 1943 Jacobs Radial Engine Table that I just finished. Not much I can say that the pictures don't already say for themselves. I have made/sold these before, but this one is by far my favorite. I spared no expense on this engine. All nuts and bolts replaced, custom water jetted heavy duty steel base, custom tempered glass, powdercoat, CHROME you name it!
I prefer local pickup, but might be willing to ship if agreed upon ahead of time. I have the engine currently broken down where it could fit in most larger vehicles for local pickup. The largest dimension is the 46" glass. I may be willing to help deliver the engine table if agreed upon ahead of time within a reasonable distance. (I'm willing to go the extra mile so it won't get damaged.) I can leave most of the nuts out of the engine to make it easier to dissasemble in order to move into an office or into your house. I fly for the airlines and will be out of the country the next few days so please allow a couple days for pickup. This engine turns heads! I designed this base so that you can adjust the height of the table by a few inches. Dimensions of the glass is 46" across, floor to the glass is 2'2" and from the floor to the top of the crankshaft is right at 3'.

Roof leaks dampen Autorama
Mon, 09 Mar 2009The Detroit Autorama was marred last weekend by a leaky roof that spilled salty, rusty water onto several custom cars. The leaks were caused by a combination of heavy precipitation--Detroit has had one of the snowiest winters in recent memory that gave way to an early March rainstorm--which pummeled an aging roof. Water fell to the show floor in six spots, temporarily damaging seven or eight cars.
New car sales up by 3% on 2013
Thu, 06 Mar 2014ANOTHER RISE in new car sales in February has meant purchases have increased every month for two years. A total of 68,736 vehicles were registered last month - a 3% rise on the total for February 2013, the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) said. Sales for the first two months of this year have totalled 223,298 - a 6.1% rise on the total for the first two months of 2013 SMMT chief executive Mike Hawes said the two years of continuous growth was "a real endorsement of consumer confidence and the attractiveness of the new car market".
ESP could save 380 lives a year
Tue, 19 Jun 2007By Ben Shacham Motor Industry 19 June 2007 12:24 The campaign to make electronic stability control (ESC) standard on all new cars by 2012 is gathering momentum - and it could save 380 lives a year, say ministers. The UK's Department for Transport today claimed that hundreds of lives could be saved every year if all new cars had stability control fitted - totalling 4000 lives across Europe. A campaign to raise awareness of the potential benefits of ESC was launched last month in Rome by European commissioners and FIA president Max Mosley.
