Western Weld Vintage Tire Repair Kit Dunlap's Pre Cut Bevels World Ward Ii on 2040-parts.com
Bolingbrook, Illinois, US
This is a vintage collectible tire / inner tube repair kit by Western States Mfg. Co called Western Weld. The photos show the contents of this item. I don't know if it still works so should be considered as garage art or display. The can is made of cardboard with a tin top and bottom and a Litho style label. The label includes advertisements for patents as recent as 1933 so my guess is that this is from the late 1930's or early 1940's around World War II. It was made in Sioux City Iowa, and was retrieved from a garage about an hour away. Cool piece!

Range Rover Hybrid on the Silk Trail
Sat, 31 Aug 2013A trio of Range Rover Hybrid s (pictured) on the Silk Trail The new Range Rover Hybrid (and the Range Rover Sport Hybrid too) are heading for a reveal at the Frankfurt Motor Show in a week or so, but they’re not quite ready for showrooms yet. Land Rover are still busy doing the final shakedown of the hybrid powerplant and have decided the best way is a high profile jaunt from Land Rover in Solihull to Mumbai in India following the ancient Silk Trail route to test the robustness of their new hybrid. So they garnered a trio of Range Rover hybrids – and support vehicles – enlisted a team consisting of Land Rover development engineers and motoring media from 10 countries, and set off from Solihull on 22nd August on the almost 10,000 mile expedition.
Alfa Romeo Gloria Concept looks like a proper Alfa
Sat, 16 Feb 2013A new Alfa concept – the Alfa Romeo Gloria Concept – is heading for the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. But it’s not previewing a new Alfa. They’re wrong, of course, but the logic that if you buy a car for how it looks and how it makes you feel, rather than its reliability or cost, marks you out as someone with high octane fuel instead of blood running through your veins, is sound.
