Incomplete.
Rear end is finished enough, got a gearbox and twin coils complete with...sixteen candles...sorry, sixteen sparkplug leads* ( insanity Claus included) as these bastards used up far too much of my allotted patience.
Front end is missing a few ancillaries, it has an 'alternator' but also needed at least a water pump...maybe power steering/air-con. Guess 'the guy' is still working on it XD
* made from little rubberbands cut open...they're are why it was so insane, if they had been long enough to stretch from side to side it would have been easy...easy I tells ya...ha ha hee hee...

"Tarrytown Light, also known as Kingsland Point Light and Sleepy Hollow Light, is a sparkplug lighthouse on the east side of the Hudson River in Sleepy Hollow, New York, United States. It a conical steel structure erected in the 1880s. In 1979 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The need for a lighthouse to warn ships away from the shoals near the common route off Tarrytown and Ossining had been obvious by the mid-19th century. But high land values at two favored locations led the federal government to instead build it 1⁄2 mile (0.80 km) offshore. It was the only family station on the lower Hudson, the only conical steel lighthouse on the Hudson to have living quarters within it rather than attached to it, and the only lighthouse in Westchester County. It remained in use until the mid-20th century; the construction of the Tappan Zee Bridge on the shoals where it stood and the development of the General Motors Tarrytown Truck Assembly plant on land reclaimed from the river to its east made the light obsolete. Today it is part of a county park, and tours are available." (Wikipedia)

The Robbins Reef Light Station located in the Upper New York Bay in Bayonne, NJ
From Wikipedia:
The Robbins Reef Light Station is a sparkplug lighthouse located off Constable Hook in Bayonne, Hudson County, New Jersey, United States, along the west side of Main Channel, Upper New York Bay. The tower and integral keepers quarters were built in 1883. It replaced an octagonal granite tower built in 1839.
The name derives from the New Netherland era of the 17th century. In Dutch rob or robyn means seal, groups of which would sometimes lie on the reef at low tide.[6] The structure is also called Kate's Light for Kate Walker who "manned" the station alone after the death of her husband Captain John Walker in 1886, until 1919. She rowed her children to school on Staten Island. Herman Westgate was the last keeper of the lighthouse before it was finally automated. In 2009 Robbins Reef was put up for sale under the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act.[7] In 2011, the Noble Maritime Collection, a maritime museum on Staten Island, was granted stewardship of the light station by the U.S. General Services Administration.[8] The octagonal structure near Robbins Reef Lighthouse is not the base of the original 1839 tower but rather a sewer outfall that was constructed around 1915.

Plum Beach Light (Lighthouse), built in 1899, is a sparkplug lighthouse in North Kingstown, Rhode Island.
The lighthouse was built using pneumatic caisson engineering. A granite base was added in 1922. The light was deactivated in 1941 when the first Jamestown Bridge was built. The light became dilapidated until 1999 when the Friends of Plum Beach Lighthouse received ownership of the lighthouse. The lighthouse is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2003 the Plum Beach light was completely restored and was re-activated soon after.

The light was built in 1889. The 53-foot spark plug designed tower had 5 levels, two of which were keepers’ living quarters.It is one of three surviving sparkplug lights in the state. It is set in shallow waters in the Lubec Channel, 150 meters (500 ft) from the Canada “United States border.

Nationality: British
First assembled: Summer 2215

The Winston Longsword is one of the latest, greatest sportscars from the United Kingdom. It's most notable trait is it's virtually limitless amount of factory customization options that allow customers to truly make their Longsword "their" Longsword. In the summer of 2215, 4 Longswords were purchased by British Motorsports marque Sennatech to build something a bit more....meaner than a Longsword with engraved wheels. Sennatech is a motorsports and engineering group based in Banbury that's been a part of Winston's Motorsports programs for the last 30+ years. They built the racing variants of past Winston Models like the Veloce, W800, and even helped design the road-going Longsword. Now they have total control over the Longsword's racing variation. Dubbed the GT-LM for the class it'll race in this Longsword is obviously much more of a performer than it's road-legal counterpart. Basically everything has been rebuilt for racing, from the composites used on the body to even the sparkplugs used in the turbocharged I6 engine. Speaking of, the I6, while more or less the same as seen in the roadcar, received a power boost so now it produces a formidable 655 HP. This gives the GT LM a 0-60 of under 3 seconds, and a top speed of 255 MPH. In addition to this greater speed, race-spec tyres, suspension, brakes, aero, basically race-spec everything, the GT-LM can reach these speeds in any direction it goes, and not just straight-line speed. This is good, since it will have equally fierce competition on the track. Winston has their sights set primarily on the Rogue's own GT-class racing program, the Destroyer FCR5. The Destroyer is the Longsword's main competition on the road, and it looks like that rivalry will speed right onto the raceways.

The beautiful Sandy Point Shoal Lighthouse during embarkation day onboard the Royal Caribbean Vision of the Seas for an eight night cruise from Baltimore, Maryland to the Southeastern United States and the Bahamas (February 16th, 2024 to February 24th, 2024). The Sandy Point Shoal Lighthouse is located just north of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge near Annapolis. The sparkplug lighthouse was first lit in 1883 and the focal height of the light is 51 feet. Since we left right on time, we were able to see it beautifully on the Starboard side (right) as we headed down the Chesapeake Bay. The cruise embarks from Baltimore, Maryland with stops in Charleston, South Carolina; Port Canaveral, Florida; Freeport, Grand Bahama Island, Bahamas, and Nassau, Bahamas, before returning back to Baltimore.

"Plum Beach Light (Lighthouse), built in 1899, is a sparkplug lighthouse in North Kingstown, Rhode Island.
The lighthouse was built using pneumatic caisson engineering. A granite base was added in 1922. The light was deactivated in 1941 when the first Jamestown Bridge was built. The light became dilapidated until 1999 when the Friends of Plum Beach Lighthouse received ownership of the lighthouse. The lighthouse is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2003 the Plum Beach Lighthouse's exterior was completely restored and its beacon re-activated soon after; it is now licensed as a Coast Guard Private Aid to Navigation. The Friends of the Plum Beach Lighthouse designed, submitted and introduced an official License Plate to be distributed to any Rhode Island private passenger registration. The extremely popular plates have sold over 7000 sets since they were released in July 2010.
Construction started on Plum Beach Lighthouse in 1896. It was built using a pneumatic caisson. The lighthouse’s foundation was built on shore and towed to its present location and sunk to the bottom. Once the foundation settled on the bottom, the water was pumped out and filled with air. Workers went into it and dug the dirt at the bottom of the foundation. As they removed the dirt, the foundation sunk lower in to river bottom. A core sample taken during construction discovered a seven-foot layer of quicksand at the depth the foundation was going to bottom out. Construction was stopped because the foundation had to be heightened to get past the quicksand. This required additional funding. The foundation was covered with a wooden peaked roof. A red light was placed on the unfinished foundation in 1897. Congress appropriated $9,000 in 1898 to finish it. Work was restarted in April 1899 and was finished in June 1899. It was first lighted on July 1, 1898." (wikipedia)

Pictures of the Romer Shoal Light from on board the Royal Caribbean Anthem of the Seas at the beginning of our week-long cruise. The Romer Shoal Light is a sparkplug lighthouse that dates from 1898 and is in the Lower New York Bay. It is 2 and a half nautical miles north of Sandy Hook, New Jersey. A few of the pictures also show the Sandy Hook Lighthouse in the background. I was able to see a number of lighthouses in New York Harbor this trip. On board the Royal Caribbean Anthem of the Seas for the Seven Night Labadee & Puerto Plata Cruise (November 6th through 13th, 2022). The cruise embarks from Cape Liberty (Bayone, NJ) with stops at Labadee, Haiti and Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic before heading back to New York City. The itinerary changed after Hurricane Nicole canceled our planned stops.

Due to a succession of personal circumstances I have neglected my photographic efforts.
I've received a number of queries as to when there will be another What is this?
Checking my records I found to my shock that 2 years have elapsed since I uploaded #55!!
The subject for #56 was already shot on 2022/03/28 and I trust that this will be an easy one to start off again.
Your correct, wild, imaginative, out of the box and out of this world guesses are being looked forward to. 😁
Post as many guesses as you like!
Please don't delete guesses that you feel might be "wrong", or that other people's ideas might be more correct.
These "wrong" answers are what make this series interesting as I, and others I assume, enjoy figuring out what led to a particular guess.
There are no wrong answers, only interesting ones!
As usual the answer will be posted in a few days' time in the first comment below. Enjoy!

I guess the business model didn't quite work out. We'll never really know. Upstate New York (as Manhattanites call it) is full of places exactly like this.
Yes, I missed my appointment at the DMV and have to return tomorrow.
With one little piece, a spark is created that causes an explosion that pushes a piston that turns a crank that spins a gear that make your wheels roll. And that is how that big piece of metal on rubber wheels is transformed into a moving ice cream truck .. and that rat better go down my street this time or I'm gonna ... well, I'm gonna!

The Harbor Beach Lighthouse is a "sparkplug lighthouse" located at the end of the north breakwall entrance to the harbor of refuge on Lake Huron
I spotted the Coast Guard working on the Spark Plug Light a few days ago. Not sure if they were just cleaning or replacing the bulb. I know they have been installing LED bulbs in some lighthouses, West Quoddy Head Light is now LED.

The thing that makes the spark that explodes the petrol in the cylinder that forces down the piston that pushes the con rod that turns the flywheel that drives the wheels of your car or your bike. I suppose this could have been a tenuous link to yesterday's prompt with all these connections.
