Here's the finishing touch for your Corvette restoration...a set of four original spark plug heat shields as installed on '57-67 SB engines.  These are the ones with full length reinforcement rib not the el cheapo imported reproduction shields.

These are used factory originals that have been cleaned up, straightened out if bent and freshly replated.  Expect them to exhibit minor wear; not perfectly true to the original stamped shape, scratches that have been plated over and some variance in plating uniformity.

Most bear original supplier logos (see close-ups), typically a "V" or 'Circled-U'.  But some are either unembossed or the original emboss was SO lightly stamped that it can't be seen anymore.

Shipping calculator presumes USPS priority mail service.  Buyer to pay $2 handling fee plus freight at cost (you can define an alternate method of shipment).  Sale to complete within 10-days of auction close.

After Ferdinand Porsche appropriated the basic design for the original Beetle from Tatra designer Hans Ledwinka (but before Tatra successfully sued Volkswagen), Volkswagen turned one innovative rear-engined vehicle platform into quite a lineup of cars and trucks. These days, while some types of air-cooled VW projects are cheap and plentiful, the rarer ones are much-sought-after and tough to find in semi-restorable condition.

Volvo, Geely working on shared architecture

Tue, 17 Sep 2013

Geely and its Volvo ward are working at developing a new compact car architecture that will be shared by both companies. For Volvo, this means a smaller luxury car, possibly a few. The platform will be modular, as is practically required in this day and age, ready to underpin different body styles or—if need be—an entirely new lineup.
