Something Yellow .
Well I knew of a yellow something - a car I have photographed before , and as there were only about 30 made I reckoned it was worth a return visit and this time with a more selective view of the yellow beast !!
The Dax Kamala - a kit car based on Ford parts and a Ford Cosworth engine . As best I can find out The Dax Kamala dates from around 1996 and with the Cosworth engine would accelerate 0 to 60 in 3.9 seconds and go on up to 160 mph .
Parts are predominantly ford so cost and availability are assured. The chassis can take the full range of Ford engines - ultimately a stage III race tuned 350bhp Cosworth engine mated with a lightly modified Ford MTX75 gearbox. All within a modern and rigid Triangulated space frame chassis which is both bonded and rivited to an aluminium floor pan. The car blasts from rest to 60mph in a paltry 3.9 seconds (Ferrari F50 Territory) and will still return a respectable 20-30 mpg if driven carefully!
Total build Cost: around £15,000 + your time to assemble.
Not something I expected to see or have ever seen before and considering there was only 30 or so kits ever produced , I am not surprised !!
For a fuller view take a look in the first comment box to see it in as a colour popped image .
So for Sight & Sound something particularly Yellow from Frank Zappa ------
A nice red sunrise this morning and the silhouette of the water front viewing building made for an interesting vocal point with the air intakes and glass roof domes.

Macro Mondays "In Case of Emergency" theme... I'd sure call the air force for backup!!
TOTALLY stole the Idea from Kika's Shot!!
This was taken on a different day, tho.

Some very creative people out there. This Rat Rod crafted an old Electrolux vacuum as an air intake. It did make me laugh and admire the owners creativity. This Rat Rod appeared at the 35 Ol' Marais River Run car show held at Forrest Park in Ottawa Kansas.

How'd you like to work on this? Doesn't look like you'd get your hands dirty, but you sure better know what you are doing.
I'm guessing that this is the air intake which sits over the intake manifold. With many engines, this would be where the air cleaner would be, but I find it difficul to believe the cleaner is in or under the red parts. Note how the word "Ferrari" is imp;rinted on what looks to be the radiator cap and that the word is perfectly parallel with the front of the car is. There is no overlooked detail.

This aircraft, XP 831, is the first prototype of the Hawker P.1127. The experimental flying done with it proved the practicality of a new method of flight and led directly to the successful Harrier series.
Following WWII, the new power of the jet engine suggested that aircraft could be designed to take off and land vertically using engine thrust alone. Various ideas were tried, including the use of separate downward-pointing lift engines in addition to the main engine used for forward flight. Most of these designs were too complex or too difficult to fly.
The system used on the P.1127 is simpler, relying on a single powerful jet engine with four swivelling (vectoring) nozzles. For take-off and hovering the aircraft is, in effect, supported on four stable 'legs' of thrust.
With this aircraft the test pilot, Bill Bedford, performed the crucial trials in the programme. From October 1960 hovering trials were conducted to refine the control system. In September 1961 the transition from hovering (jet-borne) to conventional wing-borne flight was achieved. Later Bedford showed that the transition from wing-borne forward flight back to a stationary hover could also be performed stably and safely.
The aircraft's engine is a single Bristol-Siddeley Pegasus vectored-thrust turban with an initial 11,000-lb thrust. An example can be seen above on the floor beneath the aircraft.
The aircraft is on loan from the RAF Museum at Hendon and seen in the Flight display of the Science Museum in South Kensington, London.

Taa-Da! The upgrade to the somewhat boring police truck. The vehicle now includes an air-intake, exhaust and FLAMES.
