Woodlight Headlights, my number one in the headlight design world.. E&J come in 2nd place
Above 3 images from http://www.dieselpunks.org/photo/albums Above photos of the 1929 Auburn Cabin Speedster and 1929 Stutz M-8 from http://www.tuningforum.cz/ the above 2 are Du Pont cars, the bottom I don't know.. probably another model of Du Pont, but it has different louvers on the hood sides As far as I've seen, only Ruxton and Du Pont had the Woodlight as standard lights. I read somewhere
Karl and Veda Orr, keepers of the hot rod faith and spreading the word with their hot rod publication while the guys were fighting in WW2
Veda set the Full Fendered Roadster record at 104.40 mph and later upped that to 114.24 in 1937. She ran 131-plus mph at the wheel of the Taylor-Blair modified and became the first woman to race in the SCTA.Veda published the SCTA News, and later started her own newsletter as a means of communicating with other racers; however, it wasn't long after its inception that WWII began and many of the

¡Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren 722 Roadster!
Hola Tuners! Mercedes presentará en París la versión descapotable (por supuesto, limitada) del sorprendente SLR McLaren 722 Edition. Básicamente el SLR Roadster 722 S es un 722 coupé, pero con ciertas mejoras. El corazón del 722 S es prácticamente el mismo que el de su hermano mayor: un 5.5L V8 de 650 Cv y 820 Nm de par máximo.
La enorme potencia y la excelente aerodinámica permite al SLR Roadster 722 S acelerar de 0-100 Km/h en tan sólo 3.7 segundos, y alcanzar una velocidad máxima de 335 Km/h.
Como curiosidad podemos decirles que se ha trabajado de manera intensiva en la aero-acústica del habitáculo, permitiendo mantener conversaciones con el techo abierto a velocidades superiores a 200 km/h.
Las diferencia más notable entre la versión coupé y el roadster que nos ocupa es la introducción en este último de una suspensión más deportiva, que ha permitido rebajar la altura del coche en 10 mm. Para mejorar el aspecto visual se han utilizado unas nuevas llantas de 19'' muy pisteras.
En el interior cabe destacar las múltiples inclusiones de fibra de carbono y el uso de cuero aterciopelado en los forros de la palanca de cambios y del freno de mano. Siguiendo esta línea, los asientos de alcántara con ribeteado rojo, presente en numerosas partes del habitáculo, dotan al coche de la deportividad "visual" que la S (de Sport) merece.
Sólo se fabricarán 150 unidades en la McLaren Formula One Workshop de Woking, Inglaterra. Estará disponible a partir del 1 de enero del próximo año, aunque todavía el precio de venta es desconocido, pero tengan por seguro que no será barato.
Saludos Tuners!
