Vintage Chris Craft Chrome Vent on 2040-parts.com
Nine Mile Falls, Washington, US
Carefully removed by me from a 1949 CC Sedan Cruiser that was headed for the burn pit, this large chrome air vent is in very good condition. Chrome is in good shape - no pitting, and shines up very nicely. Chris Craft logo, P/N (5808), and Algonac Brass Works logo on the back side - no Perko here!
This is a heavy brass chrome plated casting - weight is almost 11 lbs. It is 14" long, nearly 8" tall, and 3.5" wide at the base. This is the real deal from a 55 year old Chris Craft.
See my other listing for cleats removed from the same vessel.

Peugeot 407 Coupe (2009) drops petrol engines
Fri, 10 Jul 2009By Richard Webber First Official Pictures 10 July 2009 09:40 Peugeot has dropped petrol engines altogether from its gawping 407 Coupé and will only be offering oil-burners in the revised range. The reworked 2.0-litre unit improves in economy and power, but the big news is a new 3.0-litre V6, which will be Peugeot’s most powerful production engine ever. The V6 unit was a joint development by PSA and Ford, and produces 241bhp and a hefty 331lb ft of torque between 1600 and 3600rpm.
Lexus at the London motor show 2008
Wed, 23 Jul 2008By Ben Whitworth and CAR reader reporter Carcare Motor Shows 23 July 2008 16:40 There was a performance bent on the Lexus stand, proving that Toyota's upmarket premium brand is keen to shed its image as a purveyor of steady-Eddy, high-luxury but low-on-thrills cars. What’s new on Lexus’s London motor show stand?The seen-it-before LF-A and the on-sale-now hotshoe IS-F – as well as its full line-up of hybrid models. We’re getting rather accustomed to seeing the LF-A – the Lexus supercar has been knocking around in one form or another since it was unveiled at the Detroit motor show in 2005.
Spyker B6 Venator Spyder on the way
Tue, 30 Apr 2013But much of that will probably depend on real buyers stumping up real money to get on the waiting list for a car we still don’t know a great deal about (in particular what underpins it) but which does look good and manages to encompass Spyker’s traditional styling cues whilst still conspiring to look very current. Now, buried amongst the latest financial report from Spyker – which shows no real turnover or profit, loans in to shares and an injection of cash from Youngman – comes the news that Victor is already getting a bit ahead of himself again with plans to reveal the B6 Venator Spyder later this year. That looks a bit of a ‘run before you can walk’ scenario for Spyker - especially as Victor says production of the C8 Aileron will gather pace this year and the D8 Peking-to-Paris SUV will be a priority – but if Spyker can produce a Venator Spyder that looks as good as the coupe it may be the right way forward.
