1960 Austin Freeway prototype sedan. Owned by a former BMC Australia Experimental Division employee, who states this is the first prototype built for the Freeway. Taken at Shannon's Eastern Creek Classic 2011, held at Eastern Creek Raceway Sydney.
The first, rough, translation of a grenade launcher for the updated Buzz Gun. The M203 has since been revised.
The Jaguar XJ13 was a prototype racing car developed by Jaguar Engineering Director William Heynes to compete at Le Mans in the mid 1960s.
Jaguar had considered the manufacture of a DOHC V12 engine as far back as 1950, initially for racing purposes, and then developing a SOHC road going version, unlike the XK which was designed as a production engine and later pressed into service for racing. The engine design was essentially two XK 6-cylinder engines on a common crankshaft with an aluminium cylinder block, although there were differences in the inlet porting, valve angles and combustion chamber shape. The first engine ran in July 1964.
The design structure of a mid-engined prototype was first mooted in 1960 by William Heynes, but it was not until 1965 that construction began, with the first car running by March 1966. The aluminium body exterior was designed by Malcolm Sayer, the aerodynamicist responsible for aerodynamic air flow work on the Jaguar C-type, D-type, who used his Bristol Aeroplane Company background to build it using techniques borrowed from the aircraft industry. The task of building the car was entrusted by Heynes to Engineer Derick White, Ted Brookes, Mike Kimberley, Bob Blake in the Browns Lane experimental department's "competition shop".
The XJ13 had mid-engine format with the 5.0 litre V12 engine designed by Heynes and Claude Bailey, it produces 502 horsepower in 7600 rpm, mounted behind the driver, used as a stressed chassis member together with the five-speed manual ZF Transaxle driving the rear wheels.
In 1971 the Series 3 E-type was about to be launched with Jaguar's first production V12 engine. The publicity team wanted a shot of the XJ13 at speed for the opening sequence of the film launching the V12 E-Type. On 21 January 1971, the XJ13 was taken to MIRA for the filming with Jaguar test driver Norman Dewis at the wheel. Sadly, the car was driven by Dewis at speed on a damaged tyre, against the instructions of Jaguar director England. The resultant crash heavily damaged and nearly destroyed the car, although Dewis was unharmed. The wreck of the car was put back into storage.
I took these photos in Almeria circuit, Spain, on 10th of March 2008. This is the Metiss motorbike, a bike without fork designed by Jean Bertrand Bruneau.
The case (with exception of the lid) has a smooth, non-textured feel, typical of many prototypes. Also typical, there is no model number on the case.
Marked “DVT 0063” in marker on the back of the case. The motherboard has no rom chips soldered onboard, instead it has a Flash ROM simm. The motherboard has a slightly different layout than the production models & is marked “WOMBAT AP1823-04 APPLE COMPUTER”. The system boots to Macintosh System 7.5.0.
Circa 1992. Has a 68040 CPU.
A prototype Av-Matoran/Agori limb for sending MOCs to BrickFair 2013. Many thanks to Black Six, ChocolateFrogs, and The LEGO Group!
Here it is compared with some other red parts. In this picture, it looks Mata red, but as you can see in photo 6 that isn't quite the case.
The official Lego prototype of the Acklay which was never put forth into the market. (It probably was not the final version).
So this is what I've been playing with tonight - trying to create a module for Drupal so I can add a Phreadz conversation into a Drupal site by just entering the thread ID. Seems to be breaking tho... will post a reply to this & explain

No comment on this apart from it looks odd..a bit of a grab shot as i noticed it at the last moment...Oct 16 2013.

A prototype of the larger, tablet-style Newton.
This item is part of a collection obtained from Russ Uzes, October 2004.
This is my prototype for the Marianne fashion. My Dollstown Yeondu is modelling. She was painted by "Tanya." The jacket is silk and the bodice is hand beaded. We decided that the final version should have less black in the skirt.

Sunspots Packaging (Prototype)
Angel Lin, design intern from Art Center, did the detailed work on the packagingdesign with Rob Tow, who suggested incorporating the story board into the package design.
ll s'agit d'une étude dite libre, dont aucune industrialisation n'était prévue, et qui fut réalisée par Broyé, l'un des designers de Gaston Juchet. De nombreux projets de ce style virent le jour au fil des ans au Centre de style de Rueil-Malmaison, mais peu ont survécu, faute de place. La mécanique était évidemment un groupe propulseur Renault, en position transversale avant.
I took this photos during the 2009-06-07 weekend, at the second race of the Road Racing Spanish Championship (CEV), in Jerez circuit.

First prototypes were made from modified reverse ring. These reverse rings are made of aluminium, are less rigidity.
Now these were replaced to duralumin.
Prototypes for sale, not for trade.
All of which are prototypes, some even from 2009 (Sawed-off shotgun, Apoc-SMG, Combat PDW, HSR, Plasma Blade, Chainblade, HCSR, AC8, Retro ray gun, and Ammo chain)
I would like someone to buy them as a whole and I will be using PayPal, message me if you are interested
This is a side view of the English Electric prototype DELTIC locomotive,taken outside it`s current home,at Shildon LOCOMOTION railway museum.
The locomotive was built in 1955, at the Vulcan Foundry Works,and was the fore runner of the 22 Deltic locomotives which were used on the East coast mainline.
The prototype was used in various locations until 1961 when,after a major failiure,it was returned to the Vulcan Foundry works and restored to pristine condition,then presented to London`s Science Museum for a permenant exhibition,arriving there by road in 1963.
In 1993 the locomotive was moved from the Science Museum to the National Railway Museum at York where it remained until it was moved to it`s current location at Shildon.
DELTIC was the only locomotive to run on British Rail that did not have a number,the false light in the nose was there should the locomotive be sent abroad for trails,but this never happened.
Wouldn`t it be good if one day this locomotive was running again?
An anonymous paper prototype/idea. Each workshopper responded to one of the best ideas from their team brainstorm, using any of the various materials I provided.
many of the ideas considered geolocation, personalising the Gormley figures, engaging young children, various "Where's Wally" ideas and many more brilliant ideas.
The prototype High Speed Train (left) and protoype Deltic locomotive (right) at Locomotion in Shildon, County Durham.
The prototype Deltic dates from 1955. The production Deltics were used on the East Coat Mainline (London - York - Newcastle - Edinburgh) expresses from about 1961, replacing many popular steam classes such as the A3 and A4 pacifics.
The HST prototype dates from about 1971. The production HSTs were introduce in the mid 1970's and can still be seen (albeit in diminuishing numbers) on the network today. At the end of 1981 the HSTs replaced the production Deltics which were all withdrawn from service. A number have been preserved in working order.
