2021 Pebble Beach Tour

The vehicle in your image is a 1917 Winton House Car, a unique and early example of what would eventually become the modern motorhome. This specific vehicle, nicknamed "The General," was famously part of the 2021 Pebble Beach Tour d'Elegance.

 

History and Original Owner

Commissioned by Dr. E.J. Fithian: A wealthy politician from Grove City, Pennsylvania, commissioned the vehicle in 1917 to serve as his campaign vehicle while he ran for Governor of Pennsylvania in 1918.

Design Purpose: It was built to allow Dr. Fithian to "stump" across the state, featuring a rear deck with a wrought-iron railing from which he could deliver speeches to gathered crowds.

Custom Body: The elaborate, house-like body was crafted by McKay Carriage Works and mounted on an extended 1917 Winton Six Touring Car chassis.

Vanderbilt Cup Races

 

Interior Amenities: The interior was equipped with Pullman-style seats that could be converted into sleeping bunks, a small galley with an ice-cooled refrigerator, and even a small lavatory.

Dimensions: The vehicle was exceptionally large for its time, standing 13 feet tall and measuring 33 feet long.

Power and Performance: It is powered by a 48 HP inline six-cylinder engine. Its four-speed gearbox allowed it to cruise effectively at speeds that were considered high for the early 20th century.

The 2021 Pebble Beach Appearance

The photo you sent was taken during the Pebble Beach Tour d'Elegance, a 70-mile driving event held before the main Concours d'Elegance.

Demonstration: The tour is designed to prove that these museum-quality cars are still fully functional and capable of handling public roads, including scenic stretches of 17-Mile Drive and Highway One to Big Sur.

Historical Significance: Seeing "The General" on the tour was a highlight because it represented the dawn of the American road trip culture, years before mass-produced RVs became common.

A local treasure is this little old Duple bodied coach that generally gets used by (small) wedding parties around the Highlands. For me, I remember going to school on buses like this, brimming ashtrays in the back of the seats, worn through fabric on the armrests, a smell of hot oil coming from the gearbox, and high whine from the engine as it shrieked loudly on long hills .

A Day At Workshop

SAM stands for"Synchronous Arm Movement"

On the Empire Bluff Trail on the walk out to the Lake Michigan Overlook I came across an old horse drawn McCormick Deering No. 7 Sickle Mower. One mower was very intact, but there were parts of a second unit there in the woods as well. While the light was fading, what light there was lit this old gear box in a way that accentuated its textures and detail particularly well. It is nice to have Olympus' IBIS system to be able to handhold this at 1/3 second.

- measure reference: the ring on the right is 8cm diameter

 

History/Invention of the cogwheel/gear :

- Early examples of gears date from the 4th century BC in China (Zhan Guo times – Late East Zhou dynasty), which have been preserved at the Luoyang Museum of Henan Province, China.

 

The earliest preserved gears in Europe were found in the Antikythera mechanism, an example of a very early and intricate geared device, designed to calculate astronomical positions. Its time of construction is now estimated between 150 and 100 BC.

 

Gears appear in works connected to Hero of Alexandria, in Roman Egypt circa AD 50, but can be traced back to the mechanics of the Alexandrian school in 3rd-century BC Ptolemaic Egypt, and were greatly developed by the Greek polymath Archimedes (287–212 BC).

The VA production ran from February 1937 to September 1939 it was originally marketed as the MG 1.5 litre it was powered by OHV four cylinder Morris that it shared with the Wolseley 12/48 and Morris 12. The MG version had twin SU carburettors and developed 54 bhp driving through a four speed manual gearbox with synchromesh on the top three ratios to the rear live axle and rode on 19 inch wire wheels with 10 inch hydraulically operated Lockheed drum brakes. The car also featured an inbuilt jacking system, known as the Jackall.

 

Model came as 4 door Saloon, 4 door Tourers or a Drop Head Coupe. The four door saloon body was made in-house by Morris and had the traditional MG grille flanked by two large chromium plated headlights. And there was also a special version built for The Police with a 1707cc engine and calibrated speedometer. The factory could also supply the car as a Tickford drophead coupé or as a four seat tourer. The saloon was priced at around £ 325, the four seat Tourer £ 280, the Tickford DHC £ 351

MG Magnette ZB (1956-58) Engine 1489cc S4 OHV Production 18,524

Registration Number 94 LMH (Middlesex)

The MG Magnette is a car that was produced by MG between 1953 and 1968. The Magnette was manufactured in two build series, the ZA and ZB of 1953 through to 1958 and the Mark III and Mark IV of 1959 through to 1968, both using a modified Wolseley body and an Austin engine.

 

MG Cars had previously used the Magnette name on their K-type and N-type models of the 1930s.

 

The ZA Magnette was launched at the 1953 British Motor Show, designed under BMC by Gerald Palmer It was the first appearance of the new four cylinder 1,489 cc (90.9 cu in) B-Series I4 engine with a pair of 1+1⁄4 in (32 mm)-bore twin-choke SU carburettors, delivering 60 bhp driving the rear wheels through BMC's new four-speed manual gearbox with synchromesh on the top three ratios.

 

The updated ZB Magnette replaced the ZA on 12 October 1956, and unveiled at the 1956 British Motor Show in Earls Court. Power was increased to 64 hp (48 kW) fitting 1+1⁄2 in (38 mm)-bore carburettors, increasing the compression ratio from 7.5 to 8.3, and modifying the manifold, increasing top speed to 86mphThe similar Wolseley 15/50 now shared the ZB's B-Series engine. Cars continued with the four speed transmission as standard, but there was now an optional semi-automatic, marketed as Manumatic, which was chosen for 496, 1957 Magnettes

 

A Varitone model featured larger rear window and optional two tone paintwork, using a standard Pressed Steel body shell, the rear window opening enlarged in the Morris Motors body shop, Cowley, before painting

The Maserati Gran Turismo a 2+2 coupé was derived from the Maserati Quattroporte V and unveiled at the 2007 Geneva Motor Show. With a V8 engine designed in conjunction with Ferrari, the car was Maserati's answer to the Grand Tourer's being offered by its competitors with emphasis on comfort in harmony with speed and driver-enjoyment.

 

The standard version has a 4.2 litre (4,244 cc (259.0 cu in)) V8 engine designed in conjunction with Ferrari with 405 PS (298 kW; 399 hp) and automatic ZF gearbox six-speed transmission. The 2+2 body has been derived from the Maserati Quattroporte V, with double-wishbone front suspensions and a multilink rear suspension

 

The better equipped S variant was unveiled at the 2008 Geneva Motor Show and features the enlarged 4.7-litre (4,691) cc V8 engine, shared with the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione, rated at 324 kW (440 PS) The engine is mated to the 6-speed automated manual built by Graziano Trasmissioni and shared with the Ferrari F430. he standard suspension set-up is fixed-setting steel dampers, with the Skyhook adaptive suspension available as an option along with a new exhaust system, and upgraded Brembo brakes. The seats were also offered with various leather and Alcantara trim options. It had increased performance, with acceleration from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 4.9 seconds and a maximum speed of 183mph. Aside from the power upgrades, the car featured new side skirts, unique 20-inch wheels unavailable on the standard car, a small boot lip spoiler, and black headlight clusters in place of the original silver.

Special:

- The American LaFrance Company (one of the oldest fire apparatus manufacturers in America) was founded in the early 1830s, producing horse drawn carriages and steam powered fire engines. It was officially formed by Truckson LaFrance (a descendant of a French Huguenot emigrant to America) and his partners in 1873 as the LaFrance Manufacturing Company selling hand powered equipment, emergency response vehicles, such as chemical engines, aerial ladder trucks, airport crash trucks and more.

- Different used ALF-fire trucks converted into a cars on a shortened chassis. By adjusting the gears, the car could easily be adapted for use on public roads. For switching of the un-synchronized gears experience was an absolute requirement. The huge torque provided the car to drive away in second or third gear.

- This was in fact an inexpensive way to get a fast and reliable automobile. Therefore, it is also difficult to get reliable info about numbers, models, etc..

- They were assembled at the plant in Elmira, New York - USA.

- Starting of the engine (individual cylinders displaces about 2.34 liters ☺! and three spark plugs per cylinder) was a cumbersome procedure. At first you had to be built up pressure with a hand pump in the fuel tank, then the ignition was put on “late” and the choke pulled out. After opening of the hood you had to inject gasoline into the cylinders (wit an oiler). Then the startbobine was switched on and the decompression button pulled out and the engine could be cranked. When the engine was running the various buttons and levers were put back into their original positions.

- The huge torque provided the car to drive away in second or third gear.

- Fuel consumption: “No comment, just a happy local fuelstation manager ☺!”

Edmonton Transit System (ETS) was sufficiently impressed by the recently announced Daimler SRC6 Roadliner to order a batch of 28 examples. They were fitted with Duple bodywork to Willowbrook design. The buses entered service in 1966. One from the batch was exhibited before shipment at the 1966 Commercial Motor Show in Earls Court. This photo comes from the Commercial Motor archive and was published in the Ian Allan book, ‘Bus Blunders’.

 

The Edmonton Roadliners differed from their UK counterparts by being fitted with Allison gearboxes, but ETS endured the same litany of Roadliner problems. The batch was withdrawn from service in 1975/76 and none are known to have survived.

The 1924 Targa Florio winner car was a 2 liter, 4 cylinder, super-charged Mercedes, with Chistian Werner at the wheel. This car is an early example of the famous Merceds Compressor series, culminating in the famous SSK and SSKL.

Unlike the usual white livery of the Mercedes racers, this car was actually painted red: Rumour has it this was a camouflage strategy to stop Italian fanatics from throwing rocks at the passing car, because it might be taken for Italian.

In the 1920ies, the race cars were actually driven to the race track on public roads like normal automobiles. For this trip, mudguards and license plates had to be mounted, to comply with traffic regulations. My model is shown in both configurations: as a slick racer, and as a roadworthy automobile.

Lego model with four-cylinder engine, two speed gearbox, differential, leaf spring suspension, steering, and operational hand crank.

A few months ago, Gaé7 asked for help about an idea he had : he thought of motorizing the gearbox of this year's sets. So I made a quick build on LDD, and after months of procrastination, finally decided to build it IRL (with different parts though). Of course, it's just a prototype, and it would require some "decoration" to cover the sides and make a proper stand, but at least it works, and that's the most important.
