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 18" 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 is in excellent condition and has NO dents NO dings. The T pump handle
moves in and out as designed and has new brass tone paint as when new.
The brass label retains nearly all of it's original paint. 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.

No sign of global auto meltdown at Tokyo Auto Salon
Mon, 19 Jan 2009With more than 600 cars on display and a record number of exhibitors, nothing at the 2009 Tokyo Auto Salon tuner show hinted at the global economic downturn. As always, there was a great mix of styles, from hard-core, 1,000-hp, supertuned machinery to weird customized scooter tricycles. Auto manufacturers tried hard to capture the minds--if not the wallets--of the younger-than-30 crowd with customized versions of production cars, while tuners were busy persuading power junkies to choose them for their next engine modification.

Vauxhall Insignia ecoFLEX announced
Mon, 20 Apr 2009Vauxhall has announced the launch of the Vauxhall Insignia ecoFLEX [ad#ad-1] A few days ago we revealed that Vauxhall had launched a range-topping Insignia – the Vauxhall Insignia VXR, a 325bhp road burner. Well, in these eco-friendly times, it seems appropriately balanced that Vauxhall has now announced the arrival of the Vauxhall Insignia ecoFLEX, to balance the Co2 and testosterone the VXR produces. The Insignia ecoFLEX, as you would guess, is all about economy and lower emissions.
