Antique Piston Grinder 1940's Auto Mechanic Tool on 2040-parts.com
Alexandria, Pennsylvania, US
Up for auction is a vintage piston grinder from what I believe is from the 1940s. It is comprised of metal with ; wood knobs, painted with red painted metal on the back of the grinder, there is a No. 411 marking. I purchased this at a tool auction . I just liked the way it looked. I had no idea what it was but; an older gentleman said that it was a piston grinder. That's all that I know! It is 10" tall, 3" wide and the handle turns freely and knobs are in great shape.

Bugatti sell their 400th Veyron – just 50 left to go. But what next for Bugatti?
Thu, 05 Dec 2013The 400th Veyron – a Grand Sport Vitesse Jean-Pierre Wimille Special Edition Bugatti may have come to rely on ‘Special Edition’ Veyrons to keep making sales, but they’re now getting close to the end of their production run. The Veyron – which debuted in 2005 – is limited to a total of 300 coupes and 150 Roadsters, and all the coupes are long gone with just the Roadsters left to finish their run, and only 50 of are those left to sell. Not surprisingly, the 400th Veyron to be sold – the latest Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse Jean-Pierre Wimille Special Edition – went to a client in the Middle East at a hefty €2.14 million which, at a rates of around one a week sold for the last eight years, means the Veyron will be consigned to the Bugatti history book by the end of 2014.

In parallel, Ford's advanced styling studio was also working on a more rational project that could influence production models to compete with GM Corvair Monza. Stylists and engineers came up with a high-performance 2-seater vehicle with the engine placed in front of the rear axle for better aerodynamics and improved weight distribution.
Volvo to unveil new SUV tomorrow [w/video]
Thu, 16 May 2013Volvo will premiere a mystery new vehicle tomorrow after releasing a series of three teaser videos.

You can catch sight of the vehicle in the distance during the second video (left), however, which looks to be the rumoured XC40 compact crossover, rather than the larger XC90 SUV.
