BOYD CODDINGTON - RIP

BOYD CODDINGTON, 63, HOT ROD ARTIST EXTRAORDINAIREWhen I read this afternoon that Boyd Coddington had died at the age of 63, it came as no great shock or surprise. Coddington had gained and lost large amounts of weight during his lifetime, and they say that’s tough on anyone’s heart, but what struck me most about him was his tenacity, patience, ideals of perfection, and his determination to recover from adversity … and that’s not to mention his gorgeous cars, truly worthy of what someone once called “applied art with a practical purpose”. Coddington saw great success, watched as it mostly disappeared, then built himself, his name and his business back up again. What he went through, the tremendous ups and downs, personally and in business, were enough to do-in ten people. I’m just happy that towards its end, his life had become, again, a pretty good success. Read More here….

Knight Rider Debuts to Mixed Reviews

The remake of the popular television show Knight Rider recently aired and although reviews were mixed, the general consensus was that the Mustang GT500KR stole the show. While that may not be the best thing for the actors involved in the show, the car certainly does get a lot of screen time.

Magna Steyr’s MILA Natural Gas Sports Car Concept

(CNG) Compressed Natural Gas looks a whole lot better to me than Gasahol! Gasahol uses food grains, for the most part, corn, to make the fuel with and although it is helping farmers make some big bucks, it is driving up the cost of food at the grocery store. CNG is almost polution free and there are huge quantities of it right here in the good ole US of A, not in Iraq!! So when we heard about the Mila, above, we thought you should know about it too!!!!
———————————————————————
Magna Steyr has introduced a CNG-fueled concept single-seater sports car, the MILA (Magna Innovation Lightweight Auto) at the Frankfurt IAA.

The MILA CNG sports car
The MILA uses lightweight construction and a modular design enabling different models to be built (single or two-seater, normal or high-power engine, etc.) without much extra effort, as the components and modules have been developed in advance and optimized in terms of cost and weight.
The concept uses a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine converted to monovalent CNG operation.
Apart from installing CNG-specific injection valves, Magna made no other modifications to the original gasoline engine. Its maximum power of 110 kW (150 hp) gives the concept vehicle a top speed of more than 200 km/h (124 mph) and acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.9 seconds.
