It is normally used for long-distance haulage, heavy duty distribution haulage and construction haulage. It is available in weights starting at 18 tonnes and is powered by an inline-6 diesel engine with turbocharger and intercooler. Daimler Trucks/Lorries launched the version II of the Actros in 2002, and the version III in 2007. The fourth generation of the Actros, named officially "the New Actros", launched in July 2011.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 2011, The New Actros appeared for the first time.

Founded in 1923 as the successor company to Gerlinger Motors, Kenworth specializes in production of heavy-duty (Class 8) and medium-duty (Class 5-7) commercial vehicles. Headquartered in Seattle suburb Kirkland, Washington, Kenworth has been a wholly owned subsidiary of PACCAR since 1945, operating alongside sister company (and marketplace rival) Peterbilt Motors.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Kenworth marked several firsts in truck production; alongside the first truck produced with a standard diesel-fuel engine, the company introduced a raised-roof sleeper cab, and the first heavy-duty truck with an aerodynamically optimized body design. The Kenworth W900 has been produced continuously since 1961, serving as one of the longest production runs of any vehicles in automotive history.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">During the 1970s, the company underwent further expansion, adding an all-new facility in Chillicothe, Ohio, in 1974. Kenworth added two new product lines in 1972, adding the C500 6x6 severe-service conventional and the Hustler low-cab COE (developed jointly with Peterbilt and produced in Canada). The same year, parent company Pacific Car and Foundry adopted its current name PACCAR.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">Coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the company, annual Kenworth sales exceeded 10,000 for the first time for 1973.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">For 1976, Kenworth launched a flagship customization series, the VIT (Very Important Trucker) with a high level of interior features; distinguished by its skylight windows, the Aerodyne sleeper cab was the first factory-produced sleeper cab with stand-up headroom (for both the W900 and K100). To commemorate the American Bicentennial, the VIT series was introduced in a limited-edition series of 50 (with each truck named after a state).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1982 and 1984, respectively, the W900 and K100 underwent their most substantial revisions, becoming the W900B and K100E. While visually distinguished by the adoption of rectangular headlamps, the updates were centered around upgrading fuel economy, road handling, and reliability.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1985, the Kenworth T600 was released by the company; in contrast to the W900, the T600 was designed with a set-back front axle and a sloped hoodline. While the latter initially proved controversial, the combination improved aerodynamics, fuel efficiency, and maneuverability. Intended as an expansion of the Kenworth model line, the success of the T600 would lead to the introductions of similar designs from multiple American truck manufacturers. In 1986, the T800 was introduced, adapting the sloped hoodline and set-back front axle for a heavy-duty chassis; the shorter-hood T400 was introduced in 1988 as a regional-haul tractor.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1987, Kenworth introduced the Mid-Ranger COE, its first medium-duty truck. Shared with Peterbilt, the Brazilian-produced Mid-Ranger was derived from the MAN G90 (a wide-body version of the Volkswagen LT). In 1992, the Mid-Ranger became the K300, as PACCAR shifted production to Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1993, Kenworth opened its facility in Renton, Washington, as its third United States assembly plant.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1994, the T300 was introduced as the first Kenworth medium-duty conventional truck, adapting the T600 to a lower-GVWR Class 7 weight rating. The Aerocab sleeper was introduced, integrating the Aerodyne II sleeper cab and the drivers' cab as a single unit.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1996, Kenworth introduced the T2000 as its next-generation aerodynamic conventional. While not directly replacing the T600 and W900, the T2000 was a completely new design (the first from Kenworth since 1961). The first "wide-body" Kenworth conventional, the model shared its cab with Peterbilt, distinguished by its bumper-mounted headlamps.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1998, parent company PACCAR purchased British truck manufacturer Leyland Trucks, two years after Dutch manufacturer DAF Trucks (the two had been merged as Leyland DAF from 1987 to 1993). Within PACCAR, DAF would develop COE trucks for Kenworth and Peterbilt.</span></div></div></span></div></div></div></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

This version used doors, roof elements and chassis from conventional models of 500 series. For the original shape of the front end the truck received nickname "Bull-Nose". Interestingly, the cab of the truck didn't tilt, and was rigidly fixed to the frame. Service of the engine was either from the cockpit or below. Cabin was available in both day and sleeper version. The range included model 521 (4x2), 523 (6x4) and 524 (6x2).</span></span></div></div></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">The Ford L-series (also named Ford Louisville or, for the 1990s aerodynamic models, Ford Aeromax) is a range of heavy-duty trucks that were assembled and marketed by Ford between 1970 and 1998. Ford had been producing their "Heavy Duty" trucks since 1948 and their "Super Duty" lineup since 1958 marketed by various GVW ratings. Truck weight classifications 1-8 were a new concept brought about by the DOT National Highway Administration. The first dedicated Class 8 truck produced by the company, the L-series range replaced the F-series "Super Duty" and N-series (short conventional derived from the F-series). Produced as both straight trucks and semitractors, the Ford L-series encompassed a wide range of models through the Class 6-8 GVWR ratings in medium-duty, severe-service, and vocational applications. The line would become one of the most popular series of trucks Ford ever produced.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">The L series was produced in the Kentucky Truck Plant near Louisville, Kentucky, which gave rise to the nickname "Louisville Line" trucks; as part of a 1996 redesign, part of the model line officially took on the Louisville nameplate.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">Following the sale of the Ford heavy-truck line to Freightliner in 1996, the L-series was discontinued by Ford at the end of 1998. Freightliner would concurrently take over production of the Ford L-series, opening its Sterling Trucks subsidiary; the L-series became the Sterling A line, Acterra, and L line, remaining in production until 2009 when Sterling Trucks closed operations.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1963, Ford produced its first short BBC conventional with the introduction of the N-series Super Duty, supplementing the Super Duty models of the F-series. As Ford did with the H-series cabover (derived from the C-series and nicknamed the "Two-Story Falcon"), an all-new chassis raised the cab upward; while sharing its grille with the H-series, the N-series shared its cab with the F-series pickup trucks.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">By the 1960s, Ford sought to modernize and streamline its heavy-truck line. In 1961, the heavy-duty F-series (F-750 to F-1100) became a larger, separate model line along with introduction of the all new H-series Linehauler. In 1966, the H-series was replaced by the all-new W-series cabover. In a change from adapting the F-series to become a heavy truck and to replace the N-series, Ford began design work on an all-new truck range, which became the L-series. With an all-new heavier-duty chassis, the L-series also featured a larger cab; to improve serviceability, the design included a front-hinged hood.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">For 1970, the L-series was introduced in four size ranges, two hood lengths and grille styles, and with single or tandem (denoted by the "T" in the model designation) rear axles. Powertrains included a wide range of gasoline and diesel engines, based on GVWR.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1971, Ford introduced a set-back front axle configuration. For the rest of the 1970s, the L-series saw few major changes. In 1976, the LL/LTL-9000 was introduced. Designed as a truck for long-haul drivers, the LTL-9000 was a competitor to the GMC General, Kenworth W900, Mack Super-Liner, and Peterbilt 359. Fitted with a set-forward front axle and a longer hood, this version had more room for larger powertrains. In 1978, Ford gave the LL/LTL-9000 its own grille and headlight styling, including one of the first uses of the Ford Blue Oval in North America.</span></div></div></div></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">Although the L-series would see few revisions throughout its production, elements of its design would see use in other Ford vehicles. In 1974, the W-series cabover received a larger grille similar to the chrome version on the L series. For 1978, the F-series/Bronco grille was given a similar egg-crate grille pattern. In the 1980 redesign of the medium-duty F- series, the hexagonal shape of the grille was carried over; it is a theme used in all Super Duty trucks since their 1998 introduction.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">In 1984 (as 1985 model year), the rest of the L-series became one of the last North American Fords to adopt the Ford Blue Oval; as with the LTL-9000, it was placed above the grille. In 1988, the L-series changed its grille design from an egg-crate design to that of horizontal chrome bars; the Ford Blue Oval became centered. In addition, rectangular headlights became standard in 1991.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">1992 saw the introduction of the set-back front axle version of the LL/LTL-9000, designated the LLS and LTLS-9000, along with the corresponding Aeromax versions that had more aerodynamic bumpers and optional chassis skirting.</div></span></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The first complete redesign of the F-Series since 1965, the seventh generation received a completely new chassis and body.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Distinguished by its squarer look and flatter body panels, this generation marked several firsts for the F-Series, including the introduction of the Ford Blue Oval grille emblem. However, this generation marked the end of the long-running F-100, the Ranger trim, sealed-beam headlamps, and would be the final generation to offer a Flareside bed with separate rear fenders, steel sides, and a wooden floor.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The seventh-generation F-series was produced by multiple sites in North America and by Ford Argentina and Ford Australia. The model line served as the basis for the eighth and ninth-generation F-Series and the third, fourth, and fifth generations of the Ford Bronco. Though sharing no body parts, the model line shared mechanical commonality with the Ford E-series.</span></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cccccc; font-family: arial; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1979, Ford debuted a brand new, redesigned F-Series pickup truck line, with the goal of maintaining utility while getting better fuel economy than its previous generation. However, drastic measures were taken in reducing weight, including cutting large holes in the frame on model year 1980-1981 trucks. This was discontinued by 1981 for the 1982 model year. Model year 1980–981 trucks had a plain grille with "FORD" spelled across the front of the hood in chrome lettering, similar to the 1978-1979 models of the previous generation.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The 1982 model year was marked by a slight but important cosmetic change: 1982–86 models had the "FORD" letters above the grille removed, and a Ford oval placed in the center of the grille, with fewer vertical bars in the grille itself. This made the 1982 the first model year to feature the Blue Oval on the front, a trademark of all Ford pickups since, with the exception of the 2010–present F-150 SVT Raptor. The frame was strengthened and the trucks became heavier for 1982; this frame would underpin the F-Series until the 1997 redesign. Grille options included a full chrome grille, a black grille or the standard flat grey plastic grille. The headlight bezels also came in several color options, ranging from light grey, grey, dark grey, and black; with the latter two being the most common.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Introduced for 1980 models, an optional resettable trip meter was installed on speedometers and the mileage counter was moved to the top of the speedometer as part of the optional Sport Instrumentation Group. The Sport Instrumentation Group also included the optional tachometer in the center of the cluster, as well as oil and ammeter gauges. In 1984, the body moulding and interior trim were updated. In 1985-1986 models, the upper accent mouldings were moved below the front marker. For 1985, the rear tailgate moulding on XLT models was updated and previewed the design of the 1987 model. This molding has become increasingly rare and fetches a high price. A cargo light was available as an option and was included in the Light Group option package. (A Combination Stop/cargo lamp was not required until September 1, 1993 for the 1994 year model.)</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">17 different colors were available, along with two-tone options and a choice of clearcoat or non-clearcoat paint.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Various standard equipment included interesting features such as a coat hook on the driver's side, AM radio (AM/FM and AM/FM Cassette were optional), scuff plates and vent windows. The back of the glove compartment door featured coin slots and cup depressions to hold cups and food similar to a food tray on a train. This was a feature only found on this generation and never on later models. It also showed a diagram with lift points as well as other mechanical information. Sliding rear windows were optional as well as cargo lights, under-hood lights, and many others. Ford offered over 150 options for the seventh-generation F-Series.</span></span></div></div></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

font-size: 13.2px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;">The Fiat 125 is a large family car manufactured and marketed by Fiat from 1967-1972. Derivatives were built under license outside Italy until the 1990s. As launched the car was unusual in blending saloon car passenger accommodation with sports car performance, a combination which would be more widely adopted by the European volume auto-makers in the decade ahead.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;">The floor pan was virtually unchanged from that of the longer variant of the outgoing model, the Fiat 1300/1500, and the chassis used was the same as the Fiat 1300/1500. The body was a slightly lengthened development of the Fiat 124: both models shared the same passenger compartment and doors, but the 125's rear seat was set slightly further back, reflecting the 2505 mm wheel-base, inherited from the Fiat 1500 and over 8 cm (3 inches) longer than that of the 124.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: start;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cccccc; font-family: arial; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The new car's engine was based on the one fitted in the Fiat 124 Sport: a 1608 cc DOHC unit with 90 bhp driving the rear wheels. The 125 was equipped with a Weber 34 DCHE 20 or Solex 34 PIA carburettor. The car was fitted with an alternator, reflecting the twin headlights and the increasing number of energy intensive electrical components appearing on cars at this time. Other noteworthy features included the electromagnetic cooling fan clutch.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">The 125 featured one of the world's first intermittent wipers and was praised when new for its handling and dynamics. British Autocar found the slight understeer tendencies were easily cured by adjusting the front camber.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">In 1968 the 125S ("Special") was added to the range, with 100 bhp (from a modified cylinder head, camshafts, inlet/outlet manifold and Weber/Solex carburettor) and, unusually at this time, a five-speed gearbox. It also had halogen lights, servo-assisted twin circuit brakes and optional superlight magnesium wheels. A variety of other improvements were made including improved cabin ventilation, trim and styling.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">The Special was facelifted in 1971 using pretty much the same trim as the 125S, but both front and rear lights were new and wider, enhancing the visual width of the car. The interior gained upgraded upholstery of the seats and a wood facia. A three-speed automatic transmission as well as air conditioning became available as an option.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In Argentina the 125 was built from 1972 to 1982, initially by Fiat-Concord and later Sevel. In addition to the 4-door sedan version, a station wagon (called "Familiar"), a pickup (called "Multicarga", a unique Argentine design) were built. There was also a coupe called 125 Sport with the same mechanics than the sedan, but based on the Fiat Coupé 1500 Vignale.</span></div></span></div></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

It was slightly larger all round than its predecessor, from which it inherited most of its engines. It continued in production until replaced by the Opel Rekord Series D at the end of 1971.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">The Rekord C's 4+1⁄2-year production run was longer than that of any previous generation of Opel Rekord, and during that period 1,276,681 were produced. This made it the first "middle-class" Opel to exceed the one million mark. Cars based on the Rekord C were also built at other General Motors plants both inside and beyond Europe, notably in South Africa and (with Chevrolet engines) Brazil.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">After less than a year of production, in August 1966, the "stopgap" Opel Rekord B was replaced with the Opel Rekord C, featuring completely new bodywork. Hans Mersheimer, Opel's Technical Director and Chief Engineer, until his retirement in 1967, had set down the parameters for the new Rekord back in 1963.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The design of the Rekord C has been characterised by some enthusiasts as "erotic" on account of the "hip-curve" („Hüftschwung“ ) on the lower window-line ahead of the C-pillar, which reminded some observers of a Coca-Cola bottle and so gave rise to this becoming known as "Coke-Bottle line" Rekord "(Cola-Flaschen-Rekord)". The "Coke-Bottle line", which was also picked up by GM's English, subsidiary, with the Viva HB and seems to have originated in the United States with one or two mid-1960s "muscle-car" designs: it was also picked up for a sedan design by the 1968 Chevrolet Chevy II. There was a concern at Opel throughout this period that their designs might be rejected by European buyers as being simply "too American", and it was presumably a reflection of this that an alternative design without the "hip-curve" line on the back doors was also prepared by Opel designer Herbert Killmer. There was certainly a perception that Opel's great rival fell foul of the "too American" complaint with their Ford 17M launched in 1967 featuring a variation on the "hip-curve" which then had to be relaunched with a simplified form less than a year later because of poor sales which, rightly or wrongly, were attributed to an excessively American design. Ford's stumble with their 1967 17M model was Opel's gain in the market place, however, and there was no sign of market resistance the exceptionally well balanced overall design of the Opel Rekord C, hip-curve and all.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The new Rekord again offered a relatively extensive range of body types. Top seller was the saloon/sedan, available with either 2 or 4 doors. There was a 3-door "Kombi" station wagon, and now, for the first time, a Rekord station wagon with five doors. Opel also offered a three-door delivery van which was essentially identical to the station wagon except that the rear side windows were replaced with metal panels. In addition, from 1967 a factory built coupé was provided. This version had no fixed B pillar and excited positive reactions to the stylish "pillarless" profile on show when both side windows were fully opened.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">A cabriolet version was also available. Based on the Rekord C coupé, this was a coach-built conversion produced by the body builders Karl Deutsch. The approach made them very much more expensive than other cars in the range: the cabriolet cost DM 4,000 more than the coupé on which it was based. Not many Rekord C cabriolets were sold, amid increasing concerns, during the later 1960s, that open topped cars (without roll-over bars) might be more dangerous in the event of a crash than cars with fixed roofs. An alternative cabriolet conversion, based on the Rekord C 2-door sedan, was developed by Karmann of Osnabrück. This never went into anything approaching volume production, although four pre-production examples are believed still to survive.</span></div></div></div></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">Opel had introduced a new generation of engines a year earlier with the Rekord B and these were the engines that reappeared in the Rekord C. The engine featured an unusual Camshaft in Head (CIH) engine configuration. The chain-driven camshaft was positioned directly above the cylinders but this was not a conventional ohc design. The camshaft operated the valves using rocker arms because the camshaft itself was positioned too low above the cylinders to permit direct action from the camshaft on the valves heads. One reason for this may have been cosmetic. Other automakers such as BMW with their 1500 launched in 1962 and Volkswagen with their NSU designed K70, which finally made it to the showrooms in 1970, squeezed vital centimeters off the height of the engine unit by canting it over at an eccentric angle in the engine bay. Opel's so-called (CIH) engine configuration similarly enabled the Rekord to incorporate the low bonnet/hood lines that style-conscious product development departments demanded.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">The four-cylinder water-cooled 1492 cc unit, known as the "1500", and which first featured the previous year in the Opel Rekord B was now carried over with few significant changes, although an in-house "Carter Licence" carburetter briefly returned (having, in the Rekord B, been replaced by a bought-in carburetter from Zenith or Solex). The "1500" was the entry-level engine in 1966 and came with a claimed maximum power output of 58 hp which in 1969 was raised to 60 hp (44 kW) when the old GM "Carter Licence" carburetter was replaced by a bought-in Solex carburetter. Acceleration figures for the 1498 cc cars were a little slower than on the predecessor model which presumably resulted from the increased weight of the Rekord C. Fuel consumption looks heavy by modern standards, but this was nonetheless the most fuel efficient model in the Rekord line-up, and published data indicate that it was also more fuel efficient than the contemporary Ford 17M and Volkswagen 411. Early in 1970 the 1492 cc unit was withdrawn. Presumably it had cost much the same to produce as the more powerful and more torquey but in most respects identical 1698 cc engine which now-became the entry-level power plant. More significantly, at the end of 1970 Opel would introduce the Opel Ascona, which, being slightly smaller and more modern than the Rekord, would compete more effectively in the 1500 cc class than the relatively underpowered base-level Rekord.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">A four-cylinder water-cooled 1698 cc unit had also first appeared in the Rekord B, but only in high compression form. Launching the Rekord C in 1966 Opel introduced a 1698 cc unit with the same lower compression ratio of 8.2:1 as the 1492 cc engine: in this form the engine was known as the "1700". As with the "1500", Opel returned to the old home produced "Carter Licence" carburetter for the first year of production, giving rise to a claimed power output of just 60 hp (44 KW). As with the "1500", so with the "1700", Opel gave up on the self built carburetter after a year, and with a bought-in Solex carburetter, though still with the 8.2:1 compression ratio, claimed power with the "1700" unit was increased to 66 hp (48 kW) in 1967. The "1700" engine powered more Rekord Cs than any of the other engines available for the car. Also offered was a "1700 S" using the same engine block but with a Solex 35 PDSI carburetter and a compression ratio raised to 8,8:1. Powered by this unit, the Rekord came with a claimed maximum power output of 75 hp (65 kW). This, in effect, was the same unit that had been launched in 1965 in the Rekord B 1700S.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">The four-cylinder water-cooled 1897 cc unit, providing a maximum 90 hp (66 kW) of power known as the "1900 S" had also first appeared in 1965 in the Rekord B. With a compression ratio of 9.0:1 and a Solex twin chamber 32 DIDTA carburetter it powered the fastest four-cylinder version of the Opel Rekord C at its 1966 launch. However, in November 1967 a new version of the 1897 cc engine appeared with a modified "high efficiency" cylinder head and with the compression ratio further raised - now to 9.5:1 - and, for the first time in a Rekord, two Italian twin chamber Weber 40 DFO carburetters. This engine version, known as the "1900 H", came with a claimed maximum power output of 106 hp (78 kW) which made the car that it powered the most powerful Rekord yet. This was branded as the Opel Rekord Sprint and was initially available as a sedan or a coupé. In January 1969 Opel reported that the Rekord Sprint Coupé had sold much better than the sedan/saloon version, and the sedan/saloon version was withdrawn.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In March 1964 Opel had introduced Rekord customers to the option of a six-cylinder engine, installing a well-tried unit that was already powering the larger Admiral and Kapitän models and could trace its origins back to 1937. The Rekord C range was broadened in December 1966 with the option of an entirely new six-cylinder engine, featuring the (CIH) valvegear and camshaft configuration of the new four-cylinder engines introduced in 1965. In fact the new six-cylinder engine shared its cylinder dimensions with the entry level Rekord's 1492 cc unit which will have reduced usefully the variety of components needed. However, the six-cylinder engine naturally had an engine capacity 1+1⁄2 the size or the four-cylinder unit, which gave rise to an engine size of 2239 cc. Claimed power of 95 hp (70 kW) was slightly higher than that of the (at launch) most powerful 4-cylinder Rekord C, the "1900 S" and the six-cylinder engine also provided a small dividend in terms of improved torque. Performance of the new "2200" Rekord was therefore ahead of that of the "1900 S", but the engine was also relatively heavy and there was a penalty in terms of fuel consumption. The 6-cylinder Rekord C sold only in small numbers, and in August 1968 it was withdrawn from sale. After this there were no more six-cylinder-engined Opel Rekords, although this is when the Rekord "Six" went on sale in South Africa and South-West Africa, as the Commodore nameplate was not offered there. In southern Africa the six-cylinder Rekords were available with four-door sedan or two-door coupé bodywork, and only in combination with an automatic transmission.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">By the time they withdrew the six-cylinder Rekord, Opel had launched, in February 1967, the Opel Commodore. This shared the Rekord's body but provided more luxurious trimmings, and it came with a choice from three different sizes of six-cylinder engine. The "2200" engine first seen in the Rekord C in December 1966 was also offered in the new Commodore when it was launched in February 1967. However, most Commodore buyers chose other (larger) engines, leaving the "2200" version a slow seller in both the Commodore and the Rekord ranges.</span></div></div></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

It formed the basis for the closely related Renault Fuego Coupé, with which it shared its floorpan and drivetrain, but with the Fuego initially using the negative offset type front suspension from the larger Renault 20/30, which became standardized across the 18 range from the 1983 model year onwards.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">The Renault 18 was intended as a replacement for the Renault 12, which, having been in production since 1969, was beginning to show its age by the late 1970s, though the 12 was kept in production alongside the 18 until 1980. Unlike the earlier car, the 18 was designed quickly; the time between its initial conception and its actual launch date was only eighteen months, primarily due to the fact that the 18 was based upon the 12's underpinnings. Production peaked early: 1979 was the R18's biggest year, after which sales began a gradual decline. Originally, the 1.4 was the most popular model, but this soon changed to the 1.6. By 1986 the largest, 2-liter engine represented the biggest portion of production.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">Although Renault made numerous forays into international markets in countries such as Argentina with the 12, their first true "world car" was their 18, hence the slogan Meeting International Requirements, which (as well as in France) would later be produced in ten other countries and four continents around the world. In 1981, the Renault 18 was selected by India's massive public sector car manufacturing project Maruti Udyog to be built there at a rate of 100,000 cars per year - including a pickup truck version meant to compete with small Japanese trucks. However, after closer review and at the direction of Rajiv Gandhi (who had always wanted to build a small people's car) it was determined that the economics did not make sense and that a smaller, cheaper car would be the better option. Maruti instead linked up with Japanese Suzuki to build the subcompact Alto under license.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The Renault 18 went into production at Renault's Flins factory in France in December 1977. It was presented at the Geneva Salon in March 1978, with marketing and sales starting the following month.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">nitially, the R18 was only available as a four-door saloon, in TL, GTL, TS and GTS trim variations. The TL and GTL were powered by the 1397 cc Renault Cléon petrol engine (which was developed from the 1289 cc engine from the Renault 12), which produced 64 PS (47 kW; 63 hp). Both models had a four-speed gearbox. The TS and GTS were powered by the 1647 cc A-Type engine (which was the same as used in the Renault 17 TS) but without the fuel injection, which lowered the output to 79 PS (58 kW; 78 hp). The TS had a four-speed manual gearbox, while the GTS had a 5-speed manual gearbox, with optional 3-speed electronic automatic transmission available for both models. The automatic versions of the TS and GTS models were called the TS Automatic and GTS Automatic to distinguish them from their manual transmission counterparts. Assembly of the Dacia 18 began in Romania in 1978, but in a very small number (less than 100 ), mainly for the state. It was intended as a replacement for DACIA 1300, a model derived and based on Renault 12, but the licence and production between Dacia and Renault ended in 1979, so it was dropped. It was also presented at TIB'78, TIB meaning "Târgul Internațional București" (International Bucharest Fair).</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The 18 was Renault's first car to use the 1.4 L Cléon engine in the medium-size car sector. The Renault 18 also used three-stud wheels (similar to those of the Citroën 2CV), rather than the four- or five-stud wheels common on most of its contemporaries. In 1980 Turbo and Diesel R18 models came fitted with four-stud wheels (necessitated by using suspension parts and wheels from the larger R20 and Fuego), with all versions using four-stud wheels from the 1983 facelift onwards.</span></div></div></span></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

font-size: 13.2px;">The model was introduced as a replacement for the manufactured ZIL 164. The first prototypes were made in 1958. Mass production started in 1962, mass production started in 1964. It is one of the most popular trucks in the former USSR, and by 1994, around 3,380,000 of the 130 model had been built in various versions. In 1992, the production of this model was also started at the Uralskij Avtamotornyj Zawod (UAMZ) plant (the car was named UAMZ-43140).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">The ZiŁ-130 is the first ZiŁ truck painted blue and white. Earlier ZiŁ trucks were painted in dark green (similar to military cars).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Throughout the production period, the ZiŁ-130 underwent two more serious modifications; in 1966 and 1977. After the second modernization, the radiator grille was changed. The biggest disadvantage of ZIL trucks was a very high fuel consumption (even 55 liters / 100 km, and in the case of a tractor unit, sometimes even more), caused by the use of a gasoline engine. On the other hand, it has some advantages over the diesel engine, especially in the climatic conditions of Russia (very cold winters), because gasoline does not freeze anywhere in the world.</span></div></span></div></div></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

font-size: 13.2px;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;">Żubr A80 - Polish truck produced in Jelczańskie Zakłady Samochodowe in Jelcz-Laskowice in the years 1960-1968. It was the first truck produced by this manufacturer.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">In the first post-war years, in order to meet the country's transport needs, the Central Design Office of the Automotive Industry was established. This office dealt with the creation of vehicle plans, which were then implemented in factories throughout the country.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">The first car factory in post-war Poland was the Truck Factory in Starachowice, opened in 1949. The first prototypes of the Old 20 were completed on December 15, 1948. These plants were established on the basis of the former steelworks and armaments plants. This manufacturer produced small and medium-sized trucks and chassis for specialized cars and buses. At the beginning of the 1950s, the Fabryka Samochodow Osobowych in Warsaw was put into operation. At that time, plants producing components for various manufacturers, located in different parts of the country, developed as well.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">Post-war road transport in Poland was based on low-capacity trucks (2-4 tons). The fleets of carriers were dominated by Lublin 51, vehicles of Soviet production (ZIS, ZIŁ and GAZ), Czechoslovakia (Skoda, Tatra) and surplus vehicles, mainly pre-war.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">Jelczańskie Zakłady Samochodowe started its activity in 1952. Initially, they dealt with the repair of trucks and the construction of bodies on cars of various manufacturers. An additional activity was the production of tools and workshop equipment.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">Also in 1952 in Warsaw, in the Design Office of the Automotive Industry, the concept of building a truck with a carrying capacity of 8 tons was created. The chassis design work, led by Witold Kończykowski, engineer, was completed in October 1952. At the end of 1952, the office and employees were moved to Jelcz.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">After moving the office to Jelcz, the design team of Eng. Kończykowski developed the assumptions of derivative cars. At that time, 3 concepts were created: A-01 - load capacity of 7 tons and 4x4 drive, A-02 - load capacity of 7 tons and drive 4x2 and a bus chassis with a lowered frame and an enlarged wheelbase.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">At the same time, in the team led by Eng. Edward Loth, the design of the S56 engine was created. It was approved in April 1953, tests of the finished prototype on the dynamometer were completed at the turn of 1954 and 1955.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The entire project was approved in January 1954. In summer 1955, road tests of the complete prototype began. The vehicle was made with a tipper body with a capacity of 7.5 tons (in the 1950s, cars of this type produced in Poland had a load capacity of up to 3.5 tons).</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1960, Żubr C-90 was created, which was a tractor unit that could tow trailers weighing up to 16 tons.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">At that time, there was a division of production between Jelcz, which was to produce large trucks, and Stare, which dealt with medium-sized trucks and off-road trucks.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Serial production of the Żubr A80 began in 1960. It turned out, however, that the new vehicle is very emergency. Users mainly complained about the engine and the rear axle. Designers developed a new S-560 engine. The cooling system, gearbox and rear axle were changed. The most visible change was the replacement of the 22-inch wheels with the 20-inch ones. As a result of the troubles of Zakłady Mechaniczne in Łabędy, Hungarian Raba driving bridges were used. Despite this fact, the Żubr A80 was still a very emergency vehicle.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1961, the cabin was also modernized, which was much more modern than the original one. In 1962, the production of chassis for bodies and tractors was started in small series. In the same year, work began on the successor of Żubr - Żubr II.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Serial production ended in 1968, when the assembly of the Jelcz 315 began. In total, less than 7,000 units were produced.</span></div></div></div></div></span></div></div></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

font-size: 13.2px;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;">Star 25 was a Polish medium-duty truck produced in 1960-1971 by Fabryka Samochodowych Star in Starachowice.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">In 1956, a prototype of the Star 25 truck was presented, which was the result of many years of construction work carried out at the Automotive Industry Design Bureau in Warsaw, aimed at developing a successor to the Star 20 model produced since 1948. Compared to the standard N20 and N23 cabins, the new type was characterized by better acoustic and thermal insulation, more efficient heating and better visibility from the driver's seat. The vehicle was powered by a prototype S470 inline 6-cylinder gasoline engine with a capacity of 4196 cm³ and a maximum power of 69.8 kW (95 HP). The drive unit was locked with a 5-speed manual, unsynchronized gearbox. The load capacity of the prototype Star 25 was increased to 4,000 kg, thanks to the strengthening of the spring mounting and the use of two arm shock absorbers in the front suspension.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">The lack of technical and financial possibilities, as well as the need to quickly replace the Star 20, led to the start of serial production of the Star 21 car in July 1957, in which only some of the modernized elements from the prototype developed in 1956 were used.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">Serial production of Star 25 started in 1960. The vehicle body is mounted on a longitudinal welded frame made of pressed sheet metal. The chassis uses a rigid front axle suspended on semi-elliptical leaf springs and two hydraulic arm shock absorbers. At the rear, there is a drive axle suspended on semi-elliptical leaf springs, additionally supported by auxiliary leaf springs. A new pump with increased efficiency was used in the brake system. The drive of the Star 25 is powered by a Polish, 6-cylinder, inline S472 gasoline engine with a capacity of 4196 cm³ and a maximum power of 69.8 kW (95 HP). The drive unit was locked with a 5-speed manual, unsynchronized gearbox.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Star 25 was equipped with the N20 wagon cabin produced by the SHL plant in Kielce, or a simpler, cheaper and less comfortable N23 cabin, produced by FSC. These cabins have undergone minor changes involving the use of light indicators in place of the arm and central wiper motors. Due to financial and technical reasons, it was not decided to use the K26 type cabins constructed in 1956.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Along with the standard version of the Star 25 model, the production of the Star C25 truck tractor was started, adapted to work in a set with a single-axle box semi-trailer type D60 or a box semi-trailer type D40, which were produced by Zakłady Budowy Nadwozi Samochodowych in Kożuchów. The next production version was the Star W25 rear discharge car. The production of this model was carried out with the participation of ZNTK in Oława, which was the manufacturer of the unloading box and the hydraulic chute mechanism. The design of the C25 and W25 models was based on a shortened box chassis, in relation to which the wheelbase was reduced by 50 cm. In order to ensure the possibility of transporting large-size loads, the Star 25L model was introduced to the offer. This vehicle had an elongated frame, thanks to which the wheelbase was increased to 3850 mm. The extended undercarriage was also used in the Star A25P model, intended for firefighting bodies.</span></div></span></div></div></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The original Porsche 911 (pronounced nine eleven, German: Neunelfer) is a luxury sports car made by Porsche AG of Stuttgart, Germany. A prototype of the famous, distinctive, and durable design was shown to the public in autumn 1963. Production began in September 1964 and continued through 1989. It was succeeded by a modified version, internally referred to as Porsche 964 but still sold as Porsche 911, as are current models.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Mechanically, the 911 was notable for being rear engined and air-cooled. From its inception, the 911 was modified both by private teams and the factory itself for racing, rallying and other types of automotive competition. The original 911 series is often cited as the most successful competition car ever, especially when its variations are included, mainly the powerful 911-derived 935 which won 24 Hours of Le Mans and other major sports cars races outright against prototypes.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The Porsche 911 was developed as a much more powerful, larger, more comfortable replacement for the Porsche 356. The new car made its public debut at the 1963 Internationale Automobil-Ausstellung, better known to English speakers as the Frankfurt Motor Show.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">It was initially designated as the "Porsche 901", after its internal project number. However, Peugeot protested on the grounds that in France it had exclusive rights to car names formed by three numbers with a zero in the middle. So, instead of selling the new model with another name in France, Porsche changed the name to 911. It went on sale in 1964.</div></span></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cccccc; font-family: arial; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The 1972–1973 model years consisted of the same models of 911— the entry level T, the midrange E and the top of the line S. However, all models got a new, larger 2,341 cc (2.341 L; 142.9 cu in) engine. This is universally known as the "2.4L" engine, despite its displacement being closer to 2.3 litres— perhaps to emphasize the increase over the 2.2 L. The new power ratings for the T were 130 hp (97 kW), or 140 hp (104 kW) in the U.S., 165 hp (123 kW) for the E and 190 hp (142 kW) for the S.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The 911E and 911S used mechanical fuel injection (MFI) in all markets. The 911T was carbureted, except in the United States where it also used MFI, which accounts for the 7 kW (9 hp) power difference between the two. In January 1973, U.S. 911Ts were transferred to the new K-Jetronic CIS (Continuous Fuel Injection) system from Bosch. These CIS-powered cars are usually referred to as "1973.5" models by enthusiasts.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">With the power and torque increases, the 2.4 L cars also got a newer, stronger transmission, identified by its Porsche type number 915. Derived from the transmission in the Porsche 908 race car, the 915 did away with the 901/911 transmission's "dog-leg" style first gear arrangement, opting for a traditional H pattern with first gear up to the left, second gear underneath first, etc. Some say this was because the dog-leg shift to second gear was inconvenient for city driving, other say it was due to Porsche's desire to put 5th gear outside the main transmission housing where it could easily be changed for different races. The Sportomatic transmission was still available but only as a special order.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1972 a tremendous effort was made to improve the handling of the 911. Due to the 911's unusual engine placement (rear-mounted, with most of the vehicle's weight concentrated over the rear axle), early 911's were prone to oversteer when driven at the limit, and could easily spin in the hands of an inexperienced driver. In an attempt to remedy this, Porsche relocated the oil tank from its position behind the right rear wheel to in front of it. This had the effect of moving the weight of almost 8.5 L (9 US quarts) of oil from outside the wheelbase to inside, improving weight distribution and thus, handling. To facilitate filling of the oil tank, Porsche installed an oil filler door (much like the fuel filler door on the left front fender) on the right rear quarter panel. Unfortunately, this unique design was scrapped after only one year, some say because inattentive gas station attendants were putting gas in the oil tank. The oil tank was subsequently relocated to its original position for model year 1973, and remained there until it was relocated within the wheelbase for the 964 models.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">911S models also gained a discreet spoiler under the front bumper to improve high-speed stability. With a weight of only 1,050 kg (2,310 lb), these models are often regarded as the best classic mainstream 911s. For racing at this time, the 911 ST was produced in limited numbers (the production run for the ST only lasted from 1970 to 1971.) The cars were available with a choice of either 2,466 cc or 2,492 cc engines, producing 270 PS (266 hp; 199 kW) at 8,000 rpm. Weight was down to 960 kg (2,120 lb). The cars had success at the Daytona 6 Hours, the Sebring 12 Hours, the 1000 km Nürburgring and the Targa Florio.</span></span><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial; font-size: 13.2px;"> </span></div></div></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

It was introduced for the 1956 model year as a sub-series of the Plymouth Belvedere, becoming a separate series one level above the contemporary Belvedere for 1959. The Fury was a full-size car from 1959 to 1961, then a mid-size car from 1962 to 1964, again a full-size car from 1965 to 1974, and again a mid-size car from 1975 to 1978. From 1975 to 1977 the Fury was sold alongside the full-size Plymouth Gran Fury. In 1978, the B-body Fury was the largest Plymouth, and by 1979, there was no large Plymouth. This was rectified in 1980 with the R-body Gran Fury, followed by the M-body Fury in 1982. Production of the last V8, RWD Plymouth Fury ended at Kenosha, WI, on December 23, 1988. Unlike its sibling brand, Dodge, Plymouth would not live to see the resurgence of the large, V8/RWD sedan. The last Plymouth rolled off the Belvedere assembly line in 2001.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">For the 1975 model year, Chrysler moved the Fury name, which had been part of the full-size C-body Plymouth model line up during the previous ten model years, over to the restyled mid-size B-body line, which had been marketed as the Satellite previously. The "Road Runner" was offered as the top-of-the-line model of the redesigned Plymouth Fury 2-door line up, then it was moved over to the Plymouth Volare line up during the following model year (1976). The full-size Plymouth, now known as the Plymouth Gran Fury, lasted through 1977. The entire mid-size Plymouth Fury line up was discontinued at the end of the 1978 model year, replaced in Canada by the rebadged Dodge Diplomat model called the Plymouth Caravelle (not to be confused with the E-body Plymouth Caravelle from 1983 to 1988 and the 1985 to 1988 Plymouth Caravelle for the American car market). During the entire 1979 model year, there were no Fury offerings from Plymouth at all.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;">Only minor styling changes occurred from the 1975 to the 1978 model years, most notably, during the 1977 model year when quad stacked square headlights (see photo) replaced the previous round dual beam headlights, the front turn signals, previously on the outboard edges of the grille, were moved over to the cutouts in the front bumper. Tail lights received amber turn signal lenses in place of the previous red turn signal lenses. Various 2-door models had no centerposts and some of them were true hardtops with roll-down rear windows. Other two-door models had fixed rear windows even though they had no centerposts. For the most part, the Plymouth Fury two-door models, during the 1975 and the 1978 model years, were labeled as "hardtops".</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The Plymouth Fury, 1975-1978, shared its B-body and unibody structure with the Dodge Coronet (1975-1976), Dodge Monaco (1977-1978) and the corporation's new personal-luxury coupe models, Chrysler Cordoba (1975-1979) and Dodge Charger SE (1975-1978). All the four-door models, wagons and sedans alike, continued with the basic body shells, which date back to the start of the 1971 model year, rode on a 118 in (2,997 mm) wheelbase, while the various two-door models—which were restyled with new and more formal sheetmetal and rooflines—rode on the 115 in (2,921 mm) wheelbase.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Before 1975, the Plymouth Satellite had a 117 in (2,972 mm) wheelbase, while the Dodge Coronet had a 118 in (2,997 mm) wheelbase. For 1975, the mid-size Plymouth Fury had a 117.5 in (2,984 mm) wheelbase and the 1975 Dodge Coronet had the same wheelbase.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Before 1974, the Plymouth Fury had a 120 in (3,048 mm) wheelbase, while the Dodge Monaco/Polara had a 122 in (3,099 mm) wheelbase. For 1974, the Plymouth Gran Fury and Dodge Monaco had the same 121.5 in (3,086 mm) wheelbase.</span></div></div></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cccccc; font-family: arial; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Fury was offered in three basic subseries for 1975 in sedans and coupes and two for the station wagon. The sedan was offered in base, custom and salon models, with interior and exterior trim ranging from austere to luxurious. The salon featured plush velour bench seats with recliners and folding armrests and carpeted trunks, along with a spring-loaded hood ornament with the Plymouth logo. In addition to the Road Runner, the Fury coupes were offered in base, Custom and Sport models. The "sport" was the top-line coupe featuring body pinstriping on the upper door and front and rear fenders, interiors with all-vinyl bucket seats and center cushion and armrest, or optional center console; or split bench seats with armrest, along with plusher shag carpeting on floor and door panels plus lower door carpeting. The wagons were available as either the Fury Suburban or Fury Custom Suburban.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Engine offerings included the 225 cu in (3.69 L) slant-six that was standard on all models except Fury Sport, Road Runner, and station wagons, which came with the 318 cu in (5.21 L) V8 as the base engine which was optional on other models. Optional engines on all models included 360 cu in (5.9 L) and 400 cu in (6.6 L) V8s with two- or four-barrel carburetor, and the 440 cu in (7.2 L) four-barrel was only as a "police" option on four-door sedans. A three-speed manual transmission was standard with the automatic TorqueFlite optional.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The 1976 model year mid-size B-body 1976 Plymouth Fury saw very few appearance changes from the previous year other than the availability of a dual opera window roof on Sport Fury two-door models. Engine and transmission offerings were also unchanged except that the 360 two-barrel V8 was now the standard engine on station wagons along with the TorqueFlite automatic transmission, both items of which were optional on other models.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The 1977 model year mid-size B-body 1977 Plymouth Fury received a new front end with a chrome vertical bar grille and outline along with stacked rectangular headlights. Model and drivetrain offerings were unchanged from 1976 except that the Slant Six now had two-barrel carburetion replacing the one-barrel pot of previous years and was now standard on the Sport Fury two-door models. Optional V8 engines included the 318 two-barrel, 360 two- or four-barrel and 400 two- or four-barrel. The 440 four-barrel V8 was only offered in four-door models as part of the police package.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The 1978 model year was technically a mid-size B-body car, but the 1978 Plymouth Fury was Plymouth's largest car with the discontinuation of the full-size C-body Plymouth Gran Fury after 1977. TorqueFlite automatic transmission and power steering were now standard on all Fury models and the same selection of V8 engines was still available. Few appearance changes were made from the previous model year. The 1978 was the last model year for the Plymouth Fury and its Dodge Monaco counterpart, which was renamed as such during the start of the previous model year (1977), which, in turn, was called the "Dodge Coronet" (from 1965, 1966 to 1967, 1968 to 1970, 1971 to 1974 and from 1975 on through to 1976), while the former full-size C-body Dodge was renamed the "Dodge Royal Monaco" during the start of the previous model year (1977) up until it was discontinued after just one model year. The personal-luxury coupes, which were based on the mid-size B-body platform, including the Chrysler Cordoba and Dodge Magnum (renamed from Charger in 1978) would soldier on for one more year until they were downsized (and renamed Mirada for the Dodge version) in 1980 to the M-body platform used for the Dodge Diplomat and Chrysler LeBaron.</span></span></div></div></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

It was replaced in favor of the more conservative Mercedes-Benz T2 after that company took over Hanomag-Henschel. The F-series badge was also used on the smaller "Harburger Transporter" as well as on some rebadged Mercedes-Benz T2 models.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cccccc; font-family: arial; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Rheinstahl-Hanomag AG developed an entirely new range to replace the heavier models in the Hanomag Kurier/Garant/Markant range, and to fill the gap between the old Tempo products and the heavier Hanomag trucks. It was a simple ladder frame design. The designer, Frenchman Louis Lucien Lepoix, was also responsible for a number of designs for Magirus-Deutz and Büssing. The F-series was available in several weight capacities ranging from the 4.5-tonne (9,900 lb) F45 to the 7.5-tonne (17,000 lb) F76. The numbers ending in a "5" received four-cylinder engines; those ending in a "6" a six-cylinder. The engines were all inline diesels from the all-new D-100 range which was simultaneously introduced in Hanomag's tractor lineup. The F66 and F76's 4,253 cc (259.5 cu in) straight-six unit produces 100 PS (74 kW) at 3400 rpm. The smallest F45 has 65 PS (48 kW). In addition to trucks, the F76 was also available as a tractor unit. In 1969 the air-sprung F76 LL was introduced, and the name was changed to Hanomag-Henschel subsequent to the amalgamation of the two branches. There was also a heavier yet F86 introduced later, with a 115 PS (85 kW).</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Rheinstahl, the owners of both Hanomag and Henschel, merged the companies in 1969 and sold a controlling interest in the resulting Hanomag-Henschel company to Mercedes-Benz. Rheinstahl suffered further financial setbacks and sold the remainder of the company to Mercedes-Benz at the end of 1970. Mercedes-Benz kept building certain parts of the Hanomag-Henschel lineup, in areas where Mercedes-Benz themselves were weak, but the F-series was thus discontinued in 1973, after only six years on the market. The Bremen factory had begun producing the smaller "Harburger Transporter" (F20-F35) alongside the F-series trucks in 1969 and continued to do so after the larger trucks were discontinued. The plant went on to build Mercedes-Benz' "Bremer Transporter".</span></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cccccc; font-family: arial; font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">While the original F-series was only offered as a truck, panel van and minibus versions of the Mercedes-Benz T2 (built in Düsseldorf) were also sold with Hanomag-Henschel F-series badging, beginning in 1970. These used the headlights from the F and a Hanomag-Henschel grille. This badge-engineered version continued to be available into the latter half of the 1970s. The smaller "Harburger Transporter", thus called because it was built in Harburg, Hamburg, was also sold with Hanomag (and Hanomag-Henschel) F-series badging, F20, F25, or F35 depending on the weight rating. Based on an older design by Tempo, it was built as a Hanomag-Henschel until 1975 and as a Mercedes-Benz until 1977.</span></span></div></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">The 359 Peterbilt truck, is one of THE most popular models of all big rig trucks, originally built for the discriminating owner operator who needed a truck that could stand up to the challenges of long haul trucking.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">The 359 Pete was Peterbilt’s top of the line conventional highway truck. In it’s day, it was THE hottest rig to own.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">Peterbilt has made some great trucks, but this model, truly helped to make the Peterbilt company what it is today.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">At the time the 359 was first introduced to the market, if a trucker wanted a long hood rig, the choice was the Peterbilt 359 or the Kenworth W900A truck. </span><span style="font-size: 13.2px; text-align: justify;">The Pete 359’s had a large engine compartment. Almost any engine and transmission combination, could be spec’ed for an order. </span><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">This was a huge advantage as they could be designed for logging, produce work and any kind of specialized trucking. </span></div></span></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">At the time, the 3408 Cat engine was popular and it would fit under the hood of a 359….a popular choice. </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Virtually any tranny could be placed in the 359 model, even the Spicer 604, the transmission of choice at the time.</span></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial; text-align: start;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333;

text-align: start;">Another added perk to the aluminum composition, was that it didn’t suffer from corrosion, so the bodies of this model, would, and have lasted a long time. aluminum body also made for a light weight truck.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">If a trucker was looking for the lightest unit possible, this truck could be ordered with an all aluminum cab and bunk, and even the frame could be ordered in aluminum.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">It was ‘full size’, and didn’t weigh very much…. a factor that was especially important to truckers hauling extra heavy freight, like produce haulers.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">The Peterbilt 281/351 is a line of tractor units built by Peterbilt that ran from 1954 until 1976. The 281 series had a single drive axle, the 351 two. It was very popular with truckers, with the 351 series outlasting the 281.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">A "Needlenose" model 281 was featured in the made-for-TV movie Duel in 1971.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The Peterbilt 281 emerged from Peterbilt's assembly plant in Oakland, California in 1954.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">It earned the nickname "Needlenose" from its narrow nose and butterfly hood, popular with truckers for ease of engine access and superior visibility. Like its companion series 351, it had only two small round headlights.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Remaining in production until 1976, the 281/351 was a durable and popular series. The basic design made way for different models, with tilt cab-over-engine models introduced in 1959.</span></div></div></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: justify;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="font-family: arial; text-align: start;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">The 1971 release of Duel, Steven Spielberg's first feature film, imprinted the 281's intimidating image on the public. The film involved a psychotic trucker in a rusty, old 281 chasing a terrified motorist down a lonely California desert highway. After considering four big rigs, Spielberg chose the 281 for its anthropomorphic appearance; feeling it suggested a face viewed from the front. Throughout the picture the truck's driver remains unseen, with the truck serving as proxy for the film's villain.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">The original 74-minute TV movie used a tag axle 1955 Peterbilt 281. It was destroyed in the film's climactic crash scene. A 2nd 281, a 1960 with tag axle, was prepared as a backup, but went unused. It has been in and out of its Duel "make-up" since. The surviving truck also made a cameo in the beginning of the 2004 movie Torque.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">When the film was expanded to 90 minutes for theatrical release, two additional 281/351 stunt rigs were purchased.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">The first of these was a 1964 Peterbilt 351, virtually identical to the original, except for its air intake. It was used to film additional scenes, but was later destroyed in another production.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">The final truck was a short-wheelbase 351 that never appeared in Duel, but was used in a 1978 episode of the CBS-TV series The Incredible Hulk. The episode, titled "Never Give a Trucker an Even Break", added stock footage from Duel to new scenes with the 351, making Spielberg furious. However, the usage was legal as the movie and the episode were both produced by Universal Studios, and the Duel contract said nothing about reusing the footage in other Universal productions.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">The 281 seen in the movie had to be modified so it could hit speeds up to 90 miles per hour. The engine was a CAT 1674 twin-turbocharged engine (about 300 horsepower) with a 13-speed transmission. The 1960 281 had a Cummins NTC-350 and a Spicer 5-speed with a 3-speed auxiliary.</div></span></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

color: #cccccc; font-family: arial; font-size: 13.2px;">Wednesday 28 April 2021</span></p><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">Freightliner Trucks is an American truck manufacturer. Founded in 1929 as the truck-manufacturing division of Consolidated Freightways (from which it derives its name), the company was established in 1942 as Freightliner Corporation. Owned by Daimler AG since 1981, Freightliner is a part of Daimler subsidiary Daimler Trucks North America (along with Western Star, Detroit Diesel, and Thomas Built Buses).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">Freightliner produces a range of vans, medium-duty trucks, and heavy-duty trucks; under its Freightliner Custom Chassis subsidiary, the company produces bare chassis and cutaway chassis for multiple types of vehicles. The company popularized the use of cabover (COE) semitractors, with the Freightliner Argosy later becoming the final example of the type sold in North America.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">The company is headquartered in Portland, Oregon (the city of its founding); vehicles are currently manufactured in Cleveland and Mount Holly, North Carolina and Santiago Tianguistenco and Saltillo, Mexico.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The Surface Transportation Assistance Act of 1982 relaxed weight and length standards and imposed a new excise tax on heavy trucks and the tires they use. No longer was the overall length of semitrailer combinations restricted; rather, only the trailer was specified, to be not greater than 53 ft in length. Individual states retained more restrictive overall length laws, but fundamentally, the rules had changed forever.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Consolidated Freightways, a traditional, unionized carrier that flourished in the era before deregulation, realized it was in a fight for its life. In May 1981, it sold its truck manufacturing business and the Freightliner brand to Daimler-Benz, allowing it to concentrate its management attention and financial resources on its traditional trucking business. Around this time, the Chino and Indianapolis plants were closed permanently. Consolidated Freightways continued carrier business until 2002, when it ceased operation on Labor Day weekend.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1985 Freightliner introduced a new Medium Conventional series (FLC112), using the passenger portion of the cabin from the then recently introduced Mercedes-Benz LK. Mercedes cabins gradually became used for a number of Freightliner trucks. In 1989, Freightliner acquired a standing plant in Cleveland, North Carolina, near Statesville, that had been producing transit buses for German manufacturer MAN.</span></div></div></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1991, parent company Daimler-Benz withdrew from the medium-duty truck segment, shifting its presence to Freightliner. Serving as the replacement for the aging Mercedes-Benz L1117, the Business Class made its debut. Also called the FL series, the Business Class was a downsized version of the FLC112, sharing its cab with the Mercedes-Benz LKN cabover. Along with a lighter GVWR, the FL was given a shorter hood with two headlights. The first all-new entry in the medium-duty market in over a decade, the model line met with success.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Another pronounced downturn in the industry's fortunes necessitated drastic measures to restore Freightliner to financial health, and Dr Dieter Zetsche, now the chairman of Daimler-Benz's Board of Management, was dispatched to lead the project as CEO. The Burnaby assembly plant was closed, replaced by a new facility in St. Thomas, Ontario. Cost reduction programs across the company restored profitability when the market rebounded. Significantly, production also commenced in Santiago Tianguistenco, Mexico, about 30 miles (48 km) outside Mexico City, in a plant owned by Daimler-Benz. At that time, the plant was also producing buses, Brazilian-designed medium-duty trucks, and compact Mercedes-Benz passenger cars.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Following the introduction of the medium-duty Business Class, Freightliner saw further evolution to its model range. For 1996, the company introduced the Freightliner Century Class, its first completely new Class 8 conventional in over 20 years. A year later, the company began production of cowled bus chassis, with the FS-65 derived from the medium-duty Business Class. For 1999 production, the Freightliner Argosy debuted; directly replacing the FLB, the Argosy consolidated four previous Freightliner COEs into a single model range. The first clean-sheet COE design from Freightliner since the Daimler acquisition, the Argosy largely eliminated the engine intrusion into the cab, sharing many body components and electronics with the Century Class conventional. In 1997, Freightliner acquired the truck-producing division of the Ford Motor Company and rebranded it as Sterling.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">In 1999, Freightliner built its one-millionth vehicle. The Century Class conventional model family was expanded, adding the Columbia conventional. While sharing the same cab structure, the Columbia is developed primarily for fleet applications (though both model lines become popular with owner-operators).</span></span></div></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The successor to the 1940-1956 Mack L series, the B-series was a line of heavy conventional-cab trucks. Adopting a more streamlined appearance over its predecessor, the B-series was designed with a sloped windshield and larger, rounded fenders. The model line was sold in multiple configurations, including tractors and straight/rigid trucks, cowled chassis (delivery body or bus), or fire trucks.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">The B-series was the first Mack truck produced with a diesel engine, introducing the Mack-produced Thermodyne inline-6 in 1953.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">During 1966, Mack replaced the B-series with the Mack R-series, which lasted into the 21st century.

font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">The Ford Taunus 17 M is a middle sized family saloon/sedan that was produced by Ford Germany between September 1960 and August 1964. The Taunus 17M name had been applied to the car's predecessor and it would apply also to subsequent Ford models which is why the 17M introduced in 1960 is usually identified, in retrospect, as the Ford Taunus P3. It was the third newly designed German Ford to be launched after the war and for this reason it was from inception known within the company as Ford Project 3 (P3) or the Ford Taunus P3.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">Members of the press had apparently competed to find a suitably disrespectful epithet to describe the controversially styled first Taunus 17M, and it was in the same tradition that the new 17M for 1960 became known as the "Badewannetaunus" (Bath tub Taunus).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;">The Ford Taunus P3 was a commercial success. 669,731 were produced during a four-year production run, giving an annualised rate more than twice that achieved by the predecessor model during its three years in production.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The first post-war Taunus models had been designed in North America. The Taunus P3 was designed by Uwe Bahnsen, a German born designer who would dominate car design at Ford of Germany for nearly thirty years and whose subsequent designs included the 1969 Ford Capri and its successors. Towards the end of his time in charge of design with Ford of Germany, Bahnsen also led the teams that designed the Fords Sierra and Scorpio. In the context of 1960 the Taunus P3 can nevertheless be seen as Bahnsen's most innovative design for a production car.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The 1960 Taunus design featured a recurring geometrical shape, which was a cross between a short sausage and a long lozenge. The rear panel and the side panels respected the same basic shape as did the front grill, subject to two large cut-outs for the headlights.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The same shape was carried over to the interior of the car where the main dials and controls on the dash-board were surrounded by a thick frame in the shape that respected a short sausage (or a very long lozenge). The repetitious use of a single simple shape at different levels of the design gave the overall car a consistent visual unity which was in stark contrast to the high finned flamboyance of the previous Taunus 17M and was seen at the time as a radical switch by Ford of Germany away from American styling in favour of European styling. There were no tails fins and there was very little decorative chrome included. The efficiency of its superficially much more simple design enabled Ford to boast that the 1960 car, despite being fractionally narrowed on the outside, offered usefully more interior width than the car it replaced.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">Despite the importance of sausages in German cuisine, the award for a catchy soubriquet was earned by the person who saw the car and was reminded not of a sausage but of a bathtub. It was and remains the "Badewanne" (bathtub) soubriquet that caught the eye of the press reporters, and it is as the "Badewannetaunus" that the car continues to be remembered by enthusiasts</span></div></div></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;">The P3 and the 1961 Citroën Ami were the first cars with rectangular or lozenge-shaped (non-round) headlights. This technical innovation was developed by lighting manufacturers Hella (Taunus) and Cibie (Ami). At the time, it was an unquestioned article of faith that headlights were round, and in the United States, it was the law, so these new headlights were illegal there. Ten years later this had inspired European automakers to come up with various non-round headlamp shapes, though many had by 1970 settled on a standardised shared rectangular shape.</span></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: start;">Monday 26 April 2021</span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px; text-align: justify;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="font-family: arial; text-align: start;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;">The Ford Sierra RS Cosworth is a high-performance version of the Ford Sierra that was built by Ford Europe from 1986 to 1992. It was the result of a Ford Motorsport project with the purpose of producing an outright winner for Group A racing in Europe.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">The project was defined by Stuart Turner in the spring of 1983. He had recently been appointed head of Ford Motorsport in Europe, and he realised right away that Ford was no longer competitive in this area.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">Turner got in touch with Walter Hayes, at the time the vice-president of public relations at Ford, to get support for the project. Hayes had earlier been the driving force behind the development of the Ford GT40 that won Le Mans in 1966, and the Cosworth DFV engine that brought Ford 154 victories and 12 world championships in Formula One during the 1960s and 1970s. Hayes found the project very appealing and promised his full support.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">Turner then invited Ken Kohrs, vice-president of development, to visit Ford's longtime partner, the automotive company Cosworth, where they were presented a project developed on Cosworth's own initiative, the YAA engine. This was a twin cam, 16-valve engine based on Ford's own T88 engine block, better known as the Pinto. This prototype proved an almost ideal basis for the engine Turner needed to power his Group A winner.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">Therefore, an official request for a turbocharged version (designated Cosworth YBB) capable of 180 HP on the street and 300 HP in race trim, was placed. Cosworth answered positively, but they put up two conditions: the engine would produce not less than 150 kW (204 HP) in the street version, and Ford had to accept no fewer than 15,000 engines. Turner's project would only need about 5,000 engines, but Ford nevertheless accepted the conditions. The extra 10,000 engines would later become one of the reasons Ford also chose to develop a four-door, second generation, Sierra RS Cosworth.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">To find a suitable gearbox proved more challenging. The Borg-Warner T5, also used in the Ford Mustang, was chosen, but the higher revving nature of the Sierra caused some problems. Eventually Borg-Warner had to set up a dedicated production line for the gearboxes to be used in the Sierra RS Cosworth.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">Many of the suspension differences between the standard Sierra and the Cosworth attributed their development to what was learned from racing the turbocharged Jack Roush IMSA Merkur XR4Ti in America and Andy Rouse's successful campaign of the 1985 British Saloon Car Championship. Much of Ford's external documentation for customer race preparation indicated "developed for the XR4Ti" when describing parts that were Sierra Cosworth specific. Roush's suspension and aerodynamics engineering for the IMSA cars was excellent feedback for Ford. Some production parts from the XR4Ti made their way into the Cosworth such as the speedometer with integral boost gauge and the motorsport 909 chassis stiffening plates.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">In April 1983, Turner's team decided on the Sierra as a basis for their project. The Sierra filled the requirements for rear wheel drive and decent aerodynamic drag. A racing version could also help to improve the poor, and somewhat undeserved, reputation that the Sierra had earned since its introduction in 1982.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">Lothar Pinske, responsible for the car's bodywork, demanded carte blanche when it came to appearance in order to make the car stable at high speed. Experience had shown that the Sierra hatchback body generated significant aerodynamic lift even at relatively moderate speed.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">After extensive wind tunnel testing and test runs at the Nardò circuit in Italy, a prototype was presented to the project management. This was based on an XR4i body with provisional body modifications in fibreglass and aluminium. The car's appearance raised little enthusiasm. The large rear wing caused particular reluctance. Pinske insisted, however, that the modifications were necessary to make the project successful. The rear wing was essential to retain ground contact at 300 km/h, the opening between the headlights was needed to feed air to the intercooler and the wheel arch extensions had to be there to house wheels 10” wide on the racing version. Eventually, the Ford designers agreed to try to make a production version based on the prototype.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">In 1984, Walter Hayes paid visits to many European Ford dealers in order to survey the sales potential for the Sierra RS Cosworth. A requirement for participation in Group A was that 5,000 cars were built and sold. The feedback was not encouraging. The dealers estimated they could sell 1,500 cars.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">Hayes did not give up, however, and continued his passionate internal marketing of the project. As prototypes started to emerge, dealers were invited to test-drive sessions, and this increased the enthusiasm for the new car. In addition, Ford took some radical measures to reduce the price on the car. As an example, the car was only offered in three exterior colours (black, white and moonstone blue) and one interior colour (grey). There were also just two equipment options: with or without central locking and electric window lifts.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 13.2px;">The Ford Sierra RS Cosworth was first presented to the public at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1985, with plans to release it for sale in September and closing production of the 5,000 cars in the summer of 1986.</span></div></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 13.2px; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc; font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: start;">In practice, it was launched in July 1986, and 5545 were manufactured in total of which 500 were sent to Tickford for conversion to the Sierra three-door RS500 Cosworth. The vehicles were manufactured in right hand drive (RHD) only, and were made in Ford's Genk factory in Belgium</div></span></span></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">The Mercury Marquis is a model line of automobiles that was marketed by the Mercury division of Ford Motor Company. Deriving its name from a French nobility title, the Marquis was sold across four generations from 1967 to 1986; through its entire production, the model line was the Mercury divisional counterpart of the Ford LTD. Initially introduced as the flagship Mercury range, the Marquis line was later expanded to include the Mercury Grand Marquis slotted above it.</span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">Mercury marketed the first three generations of the Marquis as a full-size coupe, sedan (alongside the Mercury Colony Park station wagon). The fourth generation was a mid-size sedan, as Mercury split the Marquis and Grand Marquis into distinct product lines for 1983. As Ford transitioned its product ranges to front-wheel drive, the Marquis was withdrawn after the 1986 model year, replaced by the Sable (the Mercury counterpart of the Ford Taurus).</span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">For its first three generations, the Marquis was produced in Hapeville, Georgia (Atlanta Assembly), Hazelwood, Missouri (St. Louis Assembly), and Pico Rivera, California (Los Angeles Assembly); the fourth generation was produced by Atlanta Assembly and in Chicago, Illinois (Chicago Assembly).</span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">For 1973, the Marquis underwent an extensive mid-cycle revision. Largely coinciding with the addition of 5-mph bumpers for the front and rear fascias, the roofline of the Marquis saw a complete redesign. Though distinguished further from the Lincoln Continental, the four-door Marquis shared its roofline with the Ford LTD; in contrast to the LTD, the two-door remained a hardtop with retractable side windows (enlarged for better visibility). Alongside the four-door hardtop, the four-door sedan and station wagon were marketed as "pillared hardtops" (produced with thin chromed B-pillars, allowing frameless door glass). The interior saw a revision of the trim and seats, with a redesign of the dashboard (clustering the instruments behind the steering wheel and the secondary controls to the center of the dashboard).</span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">For 1974, the grille underwent a redesign (nearly matching that of the Lincoln Continental), shifting to a vertically-oriented layout and eliminating the egg-crate trim of the headlamp covers. Following their addition to the front fascia, the Marquis received 5-mph rear bumpers. In response to pending safety regulations, the four-door hardtop was offered for the last time.For 1975, the front fascia saw several revisions, with a larger radiator-style grille (with the "Mercury" block lettering replaced by a script above the left headlamp); in contrast to the Ford LTD Landau and the Lincoln Continental, the headlamp doors were revised with chrome border trim and a crest emblem. The rear fascia received padded vinyl trim (body color or contrasting) between the taillamps. While Ford and Lincoln added B-pillars (and opera windows) to their two-door sedans, Mercury retained its hardtop roofline.</span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc;">For 1976 though 1978, the Marquis saw few visible changes; in 1976, a Landau vinyl roof option was introduced for Brougham and Grand Marquis two-doors, while all versions of the Marquis were marketed as "Ride-Engineered" (promoting its successful ride comparisons against more expensive European sedans of the time). For 1978, the Marquis was given a redesigned grille, retaining a similar radiator-style design.</span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333; clear: both; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #cccccc;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #333333;

The Ford 17 M was a range of large family saloons/sedans produced by Ford of Germany between Autumn 1967 and December 1971. There were, at launch, four different engine sizes available, ranging from 1.5 to 2.3 litres. A more lavishly appointed version of the car, branded as the Ford 20 M was also offered, but only with the larger two engines.<br />
<br />
The facelift of 1968, undertaken when the car had been on sale for less than a year, did not significantly change the overall silhouette of the car (here shown as a 2-door coupé) but the new version came with several of the bumps and creases removed. The result was that the facelifted car looked even larger than the earlier one, but less fussy. The range was subsequently broadened further, and from 1969 the Ford 26 M joined the range, featuring the same body, but a larger engine, automatic transmission as standard, and various other luxury features.<br />
<br />
The Taunus 17M name had been applied to a succession of family saloons/sedans from Ford Germany since 1957, but the introduction of the 1967 car coincided with the removal of the “Taunus” name. Nevertheless, for the avoidance of confusion the 17M and 20M models introduced in 1967 as well as the 26M introduced in 1969 are usually identified, in retrospect, as the Ford P7. It was the seventh newly designed German Ford to be launched after the war and for this reason it was from inception known within the company as Ford Project 7 (P7) or more simply as the Ford P7.<br />
<br />
During the months following its introduction sales were disappointing and the company rushed to produce an extensively face-lifted model. This appeared, with various styling changes and a modified range of engine options, in August 1968, less than a year after the P7’s introduction. To differentiate between the model produced before August 1968, and that produced between August 1968 and the end of 1971, the former is normally designated as the Ford P7a and the latter as the Ford P7b.<br />
<br />
Between September 1967 and August 1968 155,780 P7a models were produced.<br />
<br />
Between August 1968 and December 1971 567,482 P7b models were produced.<br />

The project was started in 1957 because Volvo wanted a sports car, despite the fact that their previous attempt, the P1900 had been a disaster, with only 68 cars sold. The man behind the project was an engineering consultant to Volvo, Helmer Pettersson, who in the 1940s was responsible for the Volvo PV444. The design work was done by Helmer's son Pelle Pettersson, who worked at Pietro Frua at that time. The Italian Carrozzeria Pietro Frua design firm (then a recently acquired subsidiary of Ghia) built the first three prototypes, designated: P958-X1, P958-X2 and P958-X3.<br />
<br />
In December 1957 Helmer Petterson drove X1, (the first hand-built P1800 prototype) to Osnabruck, West Germany, headquarters of Karmann. Petterson hoped that Karmann would be able to take on the tooling and building of the P1800. Karmann's engineers had already been preparing working drawings from the wooden styling buck at Frua. Petterson and Volvo chief engineer Thor Berthelius met there, tested the car and discussed the construction with Karmann. They were ready to build it and this meant that the first cars could hit the market as early as December 1958. But in February, Karmann's most important customer, Volkswagen VAG, forbade Karmann to take on the job. They were afraid that the P1800 would compete with the sales of their own cars, and threatened to cancel all their contracts with Karmann if they took on the coachbuilding of this car. This setback almost caused the project to be abandoned.<br />
<br />
Other German firms NSU, Drautz and Hanomag were contacted but none of them was selected because Volvo did not believe these firms met their manufacturing quality control standards.<br />
<br />
It began to appear that Volvo might never produce the P1800. This motivated Petterson to obtain financial backing from two financial firms with the intention of buying the components directly from Volvo, and marketing the car himself. At this point Volvo had made no mention of the P1800 and the factory would not comment. Then a press release surfaced with a photo of the car, putting Volvo in a position where they had to acknowledge the car's existence. These events influenced the company to renew its efforts, and it turned to Jensen Motors whose production lines were under capacity, and they agreed to a contract of 10,000 cars. The Linwood, Scotland body plant of manufacturer Pressed Steel was in turn contracted by Jensen to create the unibody shell, which then shipped via rail to be assembled at Jensen in West Bromwich, England. In September 1960, the first production<br />
P1800 (for the 1961 model year) left Jensen for an eager public.<br />
<br />
The engine provided was the B18 with dual SU carburettors, producing 100 hp (75 kW). This variant (named B18B) had a different camshaft from, and higher compression than, the slightly less powerful twin-carb B18D used in the contemporary Amazon 122S. The 'new' B18 was actually developed from the pre-existing B36 V8 engine employed in Volvo trucks at the time. This cut production costs, as well as furnishing the P1800 with a strong engine boasting five main crank bearings. The B18 was matched with the new and more robust M40 manual gearbox through 1963. From 1963 to 1972 the M41 gearbox with electrically actuated overdrive was a popular option. Two overdrive types where used, the D-Type through 1969, and the J-type through 1973. The J-type had a slightly shorter ratio of 0.797:1 as opposed to 0.756:1 for the D-type. The addition of this overdrive gave the 1800 series a defacto fifth gear, allowing it greater fuel efficiency and decreased drivetrain wear. Cars sold without overdrive had a numerically lower geared differential, which had the interesting effect of giving them a somewhat higher top speed (just under 120 mph) than the more popular overdrive models. This was because the non-overdrive cars could reach the engine's redline in top gear, while the overdrive-equipped cars could not, giving the latter a top speed of roughly 110 mph (177 km/h).<br />
<br />
As time progressed, Jensen had problems with quality control, so the contract was ended early at 6,000 cars. In 1963 production was moved to Volvo's Lundby Plant in Gothenburg and the car's name was changed to 1800S (the 'S' indicating Swedish assembly). The engine was improved with an additional 8 hp (6 kW). In 1966 the four-cylinder engine was updated to 115 hp (86 kW). In 1969 the B18 engine was replaced with the 2-liter B20B variant of the B20 giving 118 bhp (89 kW), though it kept the designation 1800S. For 1970 numerous changes came with the fuel-injected 1800E, which had the B20E engine with Bosch DJetronic fuel injection and a revised camshaft and produced 130 bhp (97 kW) from its 2-litres without sacrificing fuel economy. Top speed was around 190 km/h (just under 120 mph) and acceleration from 0-100km was 9.5 seconds. In addition, the 1970 model was the first 1800 to appear with four-wheel disc brakes. Prior to this, the 1800 series had front discs and rear drums.<br />
<br />
In 1972 came the last model, the 1800ES, a hatchback or station wagon version with an allglass tailgate; the engine was downgraded to 125 bhp (92 kW) by reducing the compression ratio with a thicker head gasket (engine variant B20F); although maximum power was slightly down the engine was less "peaky" and the real-world performance was actually improved. For the last model year, 1973, only the 1800ES was produced. Total production of the 1800 line from 1961 through 1973 was 47,492 units. Production ended on June 27, 1973 although Volvo was in negotiations with Sergio Coggiola concerning a possible P1800ESC. While Volvo never produced factory convertibles of the 1800, these were produced in the aftermarket. A Long Island, NY (USA) dealer, Volvoville, advertised a convertible version.<br />
<br />
A white Volvo P1800 (with licence plate ST1) driven by Simon Templar, played by Roger Moore, was featured in the TV series The Saint beginning in 1962 and played a prominent role throughout the entire run of the show. There were two exciting new cars introduced at the Paris Auto Show in 1962, and Jaguar was first offered the opportunity to provide an EType car for the series but declined as they had too much demand already and didn't see the need for additional press (a similar situation arose with Mars Candies' M&Ms and Reese's Pieces in the movie E.T.). Volvo was then asked for a P1800, and they jumped at the chance leading to a nice increase of sales of the P1800 and the creation of a 1960s' icon. Later, in the 1970s when The Return of the Saint was created, Jaguar made up for their mistake and offered the new XJ-S for the series. One of the Volvo 1800s used in the Saint TV series in 1967 has been faithfully restored and is now owned by Bill Krzastek. It does indeed look like a giant-size Corgi Saint Volvo, and it has appeared in a number of auto shows.<br />
