 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.

Top Gear Skoda Yeti Helipad We thought that Top Gear had kicked in to the start of a new series – Series 16 AB (that’s ‘After Boring’ Top Gear) – when we had the Three Wise Men Christmas Special and the preceding Top Gear East Coast USA Road Trip. But it was a trick; nothing more than an hors d’œuvre for the new series. But Top Gear series 16 does start tonight – 8pm BBC2 (GMT).

Hyundai to reveal Blue-Will plug-in hybrid at Seoul show

Wed, 25 Mar 2009

By Chris Chilton First Official Pictures 25 March 2009 14:15 Hyundai will reveal the Blue-Will, a dramatically-styled plug-in hybrid coupe, at the 2009 Seoul Motor Show that employs state-of-the-art lithium ion polymer batteries. The Blue-Will concept is powered by a direct injection 1.6-litre petrol mated to a CVT transmission. A battery pack mounted together with the fuel tank under the rear sat ensures cabin and luggage space doesn’t suffer and clever solar cells mounted in the glass roof panel generate power for the battery but don’t limit visibility through the glass pane Although the swoopy bodywork with its mixture of smooth curves and sharp intersecting hint at a future design direction for Hyundai, there are no plans to put the Blue-Will into production.
