I don't often ride trains. But when I do, I ride on the roof.

Sarc's back!

Just A Car Geek: May 2010

Quote:
"This car was built for a man who saw a vehicle in Italy designed & built on an Alfa-Romeo drive train by Bertone Studios and wanted to buy it. Bertone would not sell it to him. It was called a Carabo by Bertone. So the man came back to California & hired Sam Foose, who is the father of the now well known Chip Foose. It is a one of a kind that is built on a 1972 DeTomaso Pantera drivetrain."
I thought that was an Aztec 7 at first.

That is a great looking dash/interior, VW does it well. Too many car these days have interiors that are a complete turn-off. I can't stand how many are tacking the screen on top of the dash - terrible.

Suspension-packing 2Play catamaran smooths out rough seas

Quote:
Their prototype 2Play catamaran incorporates an interlinked hydraulic suspension, that isolates the deck from the two hulls.

The system was invented by members of a team that also developed the Kinetic suspension system, which is currently found on off-road (but on-land) vehicles such as the Toyota Landcruiser Prado and Nissan Patrol, along with the McLaren MP4 12C and P1 supercars.
