The flight of the odonates is studied by the aerodynamic industry. Its incredible turns, stops, backward flights, changes of pace, etc ... depends on that muscular structure from which the wings are born.

Like most other Triumphs of the period the Vitesse was designed by Italian stylist Giovanni Michelotti which became available as a Saloon or Convertible and an Estate variant to special order. Originally introduce in May 1962 as an in-line 6-cylinder performance version of the Triumph Herald small saloon. powered by a 1596cc engine derived from the engine used in the Standard Vanguard Six
In September 1966 Triumph upgraded the engine to 1998 cc, in line with the new Triumph GT6 coupé, and relaunched the car as the Vitesse 2-Litre, with an output of 95bhp Other detail modifications for the 2-litre, included a stronger clutch, all synchromesh gearbox, larger front brakes and wider wheels with the option of radial tyres alas the increased performance highlighted the deficiencies in the cars rear suspension
The Vitesse Mark 2 was launched in October 1968 as the final update to the Vitesse range aimed at addressing the problem of the rear suspension the Mark 2 was fitted with a redesigned layout using new lower wishbones and Rotoflex half-shaft couplings along with the GT6 Mk.II. The engine was also tweaked further increasing output from 95bhp to 104bhp. The exterior featured a new grille with 3 sets of horizontal elements that were also used (in longer form) in the Herald 13/60, with the difference that the Herald maintained a single pair of headlights rather than adapting the twin headlight arrangement of the Vitesse, Rostyle wheel trims and silver painted steel rear panel, while the interior was also upgraded.

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 Ford Escort Mk.I was unveiled ay the 1967 Brussels Motor Show, as a replacement for the Ford Anglia. Escort production commenced at Halewood towards the end of 1967 with left hand drive cars starting in September 1968 at Genk. Initially the continental Escorts differed slightly from the UK built ones under the skin. The front suspension and steering gear were differently configured and the brakes were fitted with dual hydraulic circuits; also the wheels fitted on the Genk-built Escorts had wider rims. At the beginning of 1970, continental European production transferred to a new plant on the edge of Saarlouis, West Germany. The car went on to become Britain's best selling automobile, ousting the BMC 1100-1300 and Fords own Cortina. The Escort had conventional rear-wheel drive and a four-speed manual gearbox, or three-speed automatic transmission. The suspension consisted of MacPherson strut front suspension and a simple live axle mounted on leaf springs. The Escort was the first small Ford to use rack-and-pinion steering. The Mark I featured contemporary styling cues in tune with its time: a subtle Detroit-inspired "Coke bottle" waistline and the "dog bone" shaped front grille Initially, the Escort was sold as a two-door saloon (with circular front headlights and rubber flooring on the "De Luxe" model). The "Super" model featured rectangular headlights, carpets, a cigar lighter and a water temperature gauge. A two-door estate was introduced at the end of March 1968

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.
We found a store room, filled with machine parts and spares! I grabbed a few close ups, This box contained parts of 'Demag, Gearbox Parts'.

Special:
- Buick originated as an independent motor car manufacturer, the Buick Motor Company, incorporated on May 19, 1903 by the Scottish-American David Dunbar Buick (who invented the overhead valve engine on which the company's success was based) in Flint, Michigan. In 1904 the struggling company was taken over by James Whiting, who brought in William C. Durant to manage his new acquisition. Buick sold his stock for a small sum upon departure and died in modest circumstances twenty-five years later.
- Buick soon became the largest car maker in America. Using the profits from this, Durant embarked on a series of corporate acquisitions, calling the new mega-corporation General Motors.
- At first, the manufacturers comprising General Motors competed against each other, but Durant ended that. He wanted each General Motors division to target one class of buyer and in his new scheme Buick was near the top: only the Cadillac brand had more prestige.
- The name Electra appeared in 1959 for Buick's senior models, when Buick renamed its series. The name was followed by “225” which designated the top of the line, signifying the vehicles overall length of 225-inches.
- Buick's biggest were related to Cadillac's under the body skin, but with their own vast V8 engines and GM400 automatic transmission.
- Between 1971 and 1973, all Electra 225's were built as Hardtop only.
- These "wallowy" boulevard-cruisers were hit hard by the energy crisis in late 1973, then drastically scaled down for 1977.
- The 1973 Electra 225 Custom Series was available as this 4-door Hardtop Sedan and as 2-door 4CV37 Hardtop Coupé (44,328 units built).
- This fourth generation Electra (1971-1976: 794,833 units built in total), restyled by Bill Mitchell, was assembled in Doraville (Georgia), South Gate (California) and in Flint (Michigan).

Special:
- VOLVO was formed as a subsidiary company to the ball bearing maker SKF in 1927.
- In the summer of 1960 VOLVO started a new project called P660. It should be a completely new car which should contain Volvo’s own design instead of being inspired by Italian or American cars.
- Jan Wilsgaard presented his first two prototypes in December 1961. The first one was meeting the size VOLVO prescribed, the second design was a bit bigger. VOLVO didn’t really like the first prototype but did like the second prototype. Wilsgaard should go ahead with it but the design should be fitted into the size of 260cm wheelbase. Frua and Ghia also submitted two designs but VOLVO choose Wilsgaard’s design.
- In 1962 Jan Wilsgaard presented his third prototype, which was a compromis of the second prototype and the wish of Volvo to meet up their expectations. The front was redesigned and the higher wings were disappeared.
- When VOLVO approved this design they also decided the new car should be in production by the summer of 1966. The project P660 was renamed to P1400.
- In January 1964 the design of Wilsgaard’s ’63 P660 was accepted (except the front). It leads to the final design of the P1400-series.
- When the first prototypes of the P1400 were driveable, it should be tested how it handles and how reliable the new inventions (steering column and brake system) were. After testing with a Amazon which contains the P1400-technique VOLVO had a brilliant idea: the car was transformed in a slightly different car with the name Mazuo ZT92. When the press caught up the car, it believed it was a new Japanese car and not a VOLVO.
- The 144 was introduced on August 16, 1966 and went for sale in 1967 and available as this 4-door 144 (1966-1974), as 2-door 142 (1967-1974: 412,986 units built) and as 5-door 145 (1968-1974: 268,317 units built).
- The 140 Series (1967-1974) was assembled at the Torslandaverken in Torslanda, Sweden, at the VOLVO VCG plant Ghent, Belgium, at the VOLVO Halifax Assembly in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia and at the SMA plant in Shah Alam, Malaysia.
