224 Vintage SMOKING Lionel Locomotive Restored: All New Smoke Unit Parts, US $95.00, image 1
“This is an original vintage 224 shell. BUT I've changed out the broken steam chest for one from another engine. I've repaired the shorted motor field wire and added a regular Lionel smoke unit that is piston driven. The e-unit works great in both forward and reverse. It is a three position unit: forward - neutral - reverse. I've cleaned and polished the locomotive's and the tender's armatures, and dug out the debris between its stators. Now, both work exceptionally well.”
Country/Region of Manufacture:United States Fuel:Must use only liquid smoke Smoke Unit:Added Lionel Piston Type Unit Headlight:Old bulb unit replaced for a grain-of-wheat bulb E-Unit:Works well: forward - neutral - reverse Shell Alterations:Inside Boiler Front Rounded Slightly Tender Lights:2-Red lights in rear Steam Chest Alterations:Center Support Cut: 2-Holes Drilled UPC:Does not apply

The 224 shown above now has the following features.
  • I've added a Lionel regular smoke unit which uses a piston & cylinder to puff out smoke.
  • If you look closely in one of the photographs, you can actually see the smoke crank.
  • I've polished the armature stators, removed debris between them.
  • I've cleaned the e-unit so that it works very well.
  • There are new green prisms in its marker lights.
  • The steam chest is from another locomotive because the original had part of its cowcatcher broken off.
  • I've wire-brushed and cleaned the connecting rods and valve gear.
  • One of the valve gears is missing BUT it has been ordered and will be added when it arrives.
  • Using a special procedure, I've removed many nicks, gouges, and worn spots from the original paint.
  • This 224 is lubricated and ready to operate on your layout.
The tender shown above has these features.
  • 1.  An all metal air whistle that blows very easily.
  • 2. It has a middle pickup wheel on each truck.
  • 4.  In the tender's rear, there are now 2-red lights.
  • 5.  There is also a white worklight to brighten the area where a fireman would shovel coal.
  • 6.  I've removed all caked on debris from the tender's wheels.

Lamborghini revealed the hugely anticipated Sesto Elemento concept at the 2010 Paris motor show. Based on the Gallardo supercar, the Sesto Elemento (six elements in the Italian sports car maker's native tongue) is a technological marvel, created entirely in carbon fiber to bring the vehicle's overall weight down to less than 1000kg. Read our opinions of the Sesto Elemento concept in our 2010 Paris Motor Show Highlights, and see the photo gallery (which includes all six teaser photos) by clicking the link below.

Daihatsu OFC-1 and HSC (2007): first official pictures

Tue, 11 Sep 2007

By Ben Pulman First Official Pictures 11 September 2007 10:51 It looks remarkably like a Copen… It does indeed, and at 5mm shorter, the same width, and only 45mm higher the OFC-1 is all but identical to the Copen. In fact, it is the new Copen, just not as cute. But perhaps the biggest changes is the switch from a two to a three-piece folding roof.
