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.

What car should William and Kate drive to the wedding?
Tue, 16 Nov 2010In case you live on a desert island and have managed to miss today’s Royal engagement news (yet can still mysteriously log on to CAR Online), Prince William and Kate Middleton have this morning announced their engagement.

Hennessey Venom GT hits 265.7mph for new world top speed record (+ video)
Wed, 03 Apr 2013The Hennessey Venom GT – an American, Lotus Elise-based supercar – has clocked 265.7mph for a new world record top speed for a production car. The world top speed record for a production car has been held by the Bugatti Veyron (well, the Veyron Super Sport) at 258mph, but that’s a ‘limited’ speed for its production cars. The Veyron Super Sport actually hit 267.81mph at VW’s Ehra-Lessian track (it actually hit 269.8mph one way) but because production cars are limited to 258mph the higher speed doesn’t count.
EBay exotic: 1991 Aston Martin Virage
Wed, 27 Jul 2011Here we have what could best be described as a transitional model for Aston Martin. The Virage in 1989 replaced Newport-Pagnell's ancient Aston Martin V8 models, which themselves were replacements for the ancient DB series. However, it's still a hand-built Aston much in the mold of earlier models.
