 This is an empty vintage brass fire extinguisher made by the General Fire Extinguisher Co. and it is  model 95HD.  It is the 1 1/2  qt. size and is about 17" long and comes with it's original mounting bracket which has a new coat of maroon  paint.  It has been polished and lacquered and as you can see in the pictures, it displays very well.  Someone did a lot of work on the website "vintagefe"  and that site states that General fire extinguishers were featured in Chris-Craft accessories from 1937 to 1960.  This would be the correct extinguisher for a 1952 - 1955 Chris-Craft boat. The extinguisher has two small dings on the backside at the bottom center and they can be seen in the pictures. There is one very small dent on the back side at near the top but it does not show up well in the pictures.  The T pump handle has a new coat of brass tome paint as when new and it  moves in and out as designed.  The brass label retains nearly all of it's original paint but some is missing. I do have a 1qt. model like this listed also.  The would make a great addition to a collection or mounted on a vintage boat, car, or truck.  Please check out my other vintage fire extinguishers I have listed.

Vauxhall – Ellesmere Port jobs safe

Vauxhall's Ellesmere Port Plant will have no job losses It looks like the bulk of the savings that GM need to make in Vauxhall/Opel are going to fall outside the UK, with the news that there will be no job cuts at the Astra-making Ellesmere Port plant and around 340 job losses at Luton. Which is about as good as the news was ever likely to be for Vauxhall workers in the UK. Whatever the outcome of the GM/Magna deal it always seemed likely that Ellesmere Port would be relatively unscathed.
