* Yogurt would be pleased. Lego Ideas member NvdK suggested this sweet set of Lone Starr’s Winnebago, the Eagle 5, complete with a pair of secret hyper jets that allow it to hit plaid. It only needs about 9,000 more votes for Lego to approve it. Maybe in time for the sequel.
* While discussing opposed-piston engines with LaChance this week, he brought up OpposedPistonEngines.com (what a name!), a repository of many of the known OP engines, broken down into almost as many categories as there are engines.
* Geoff hacker this week shared the story of one Kellison-nosed Austin-Healey Sprite and its recent retrieval from decades of long-term storage.
* Why do auto companies built concept and show cars? Designer Peter Stevens delves into the answers (part 1, part 2) at FormTrends.
