1920 Post Card - Stolen Car Reward
I found this post card and it immediately peeked my interest. I had no idea that this kind of thing was ever done back in the day. A $50 reward sounds like a lot of money for recovering a four year old medium-priced car. I did see that there are a couple others out there from about the same timeframe. I wonder how long the insurance industry was using this tactic. I also wonder if it was effective.

My Sleeve Valve Display Engine
Wanted to post some photos and video of my sleeve valve display engine in action. This first video demonstrates how the sleeve ports open and close on the compression and exhaust strokes. The small bulb simulates the spark plug firing at the top of the compression stroke.

Low Buck Improvements
Now and again I come across some inexpensive yet worthwhile improvements on my two older prewar restorations. Put these new headlight rings in (Hershey find for $25) last week. Seems small but originals must have been a real mess - they were painted silver (see pic- yuck!)
@JohnBloom we sprung to swap plates out with the 560 SL last week as well. $40 and 45 monutes at the DMV. Early American plate belongs on a 40 Packard not an 89 MB!
What's your latest small investment improvement?

Derham Limo Body from a RR Silver Ghost
There was a time in the collector car world where very cool closed bodies would be removed from their original chassis to be replaced by replica open car bodies. What we have here advertised on Hemmings for $19,950 is an original Derham body that came off a Rolls Royce Silver Ghost. In remarkably complete condition it needs to be put back on a chassis. Located in Massachusetts.

Model Y Performance vs Polestar vs Polestar 4 Dual Motor Performance Plus
Good article from Car and Driver comparing the performance versions of the Y and Model 4. The Tesla offers more cohesive handling, a comfortable ride, superior range while feeling fully refined. The Polestar has a premium interior, slightly quicker acceleration, and sharp brakes, but it is heavier, more expensive.
Summary as follows:
Overall Winner: The Tesla Model Y Performance edges out the Polestar as the better-balanced performance compact electric SUV. It offers strong value, confident handling, everyday comfort, and practicality despite less raw power.
Performance & Driving: Both are very quick (Polestar 0–60 mph in 3.2 sec vs. Tesla 3.3 sec; 536 hp vs. 510 hp), but the Tesla feels more cohesive with crisp steering, better body control, and adaptive dampers that balance sportiness and ride comfort. The Polestar has superior brakes and grip (thanks to summer tires) but suffers from numb steering, inconsistent ride, and less harmonious dynamics.
Interior & Design: Polestar wins here with a more premium, spa-like cabin (better materials, optional nappa leather/glass roof), spacious rear, and stylish (if polarizing) exterior. Tesla's refreshed interior is improved and functional but more minimalist/plain. Note: Polestar lacks a rear window (relies on a digital mirror).
Range, Efficiency & Practicality: Tesla has a clear edge with ~306-mile EPA range (tested 270 miles) vs. Polestar's 255 miles (tested 250 miles), faster charging, and similar cargo space (Tesla uses its frunk advantage).
Price & Verdict: Tesla starts at $59,630 (tested ~$63k) and feels fully resolved. Polestar is pricier (base ~$74k, tested $80.8k) and feels less refined. The Polestar may have limited future availability in the U.S.

Expansion at Gilmore
In a time where many museums seem to be stagnant and even closing, it is good to see the Gilmore pushing forward with obvious momentum. A 3.6 million dollar expansion project is beginning.
