About This 1967 Fiat Dino

Posted: 13 Aug 2014

Stock 2.4 L, six cylinder, triple weber 40 four-barrel, etc., with ZF dogleg 5 speed manual transmission. Good condition. Odometer reads 14061 Km. Runs well. California car. I've owned the car about 10 years. It's an awesome car. Previous owner bought the car from Fantasy Junction in Berkeley, CA. The car was shown at Concorso Italiano before I owned it. Designed by Bertone.

This car has been reasonably well maintained and cared for, is in great condition, runs great, but, still has the type of wear and tear typical of a car almost 50 years old. It's not in excellent condition, though it is the nicest Dino coupe I have seen. The car starts up quickly. Does not smoke, or burn oil, at least nothing noticeable. With the exception of a minor dime size spot beginning to bubble over the passenger rear tail lamp, it has no noticeable rust. (If it has rust, I can't find it). Please see enclosed photos. There is no rust evident in the normal trouble zones. The sills, fenders, running boards, tire well, look clear.

Car appears to have been well maintained over the years: Some maintenance records going back to 1995. Repairs include: Rebuilt clutch and master cylinder; new/rebuilt exhaust system (Stebro); replaced slave cylinder (1999); Cylinder head/valve job, cam chains and guides replaced at 5443 (2000); carbs tuned. I recently had distributor rebuilt and drive shaft rebalanced. Quasi regular tune ups.

The car can be idiosyncratic at times, but presently runs, sounds and handles really well. The driving experience is thrilling.

The flaws: The original Dino steering wheel disintegrated and has been replaced by a wooden Nardi. Horn is not connected. One of the headlight beams is out. The passenger side power window works, but is slow. The driver side works fine. It has aftermarket seatbelts installed by previous owner. The interior carpet and trunk carpet are tired. There are cracks in the dash. Not all the gauges work, but most do. The interior is generally good, but not great. It has a few minor dings that are not noticeable. It has a thin scratch in the front hood about three inches long (see photo).

The engine is the 2.4 Dino iron block engine. I am not sure whether this is the original engine. I have some manuals and extra parts.

In <b>pictures</b>: Futuristic designs for the 3D printed <b>cars</b> of tomorrow <b>...</b>

Posted: 06 Jun 2014 02:27 AM PDT

This futuristic looking electric car has been selected to be 3D printed as part of a competition to showcase the potential of the fast-developing printing technology.

It will be turned into a working vehicle using the technology, following a competition that saw would-be vehicle designers submitting their proposals for the cars of tomorrow.

US car manufacturing maverick Local Motors launched the competition to design the first 3D printed electric vehicle earlier this year.

The chosen design will be printed using a Big Area Additive Manufacturing (BAAM) machine, the first large-scale 3D printer of its kind, at September's International Manufacturing Technology Show in Chicago.

The winner was chosen by a panel of judges, who also awarded six other design innovation awards for unique concepts and ideas. Here we take a closer look at the winning designs.

Strati: Winner

strati

The winning design was created by Italian designer Michele AnoƩ, who developed this compact car to be easily be entered and not look out of place on our roads.

It will inspire the full-size 3D printed prototype.

Lonnie Love, from Oak Ridge National Laboratory, said: "Michele's design offers an excellent balance between innovation, complexity and practicality. It has good 3D lines and the retractable roof is really cool."


Internal Strut Frame

internalstrutframe

This design has an innovative structure that uses vertical struts to support the upper surfaces of the vehicle.

The concept was selected as the community favourite.


Aeroblade

aeroblade

The Aeroblade was designed to try and push new aerodynamic techniques by conducting the airflow through uniquely designed 3D blades.

Judges described the design as being very futuristic-looking.


3DPCX

3dpcx2

The 3DPCX looks slightly like an expanded go-kart, but the car uses creative structural support to help hold it together.

Judges praised the vehicle for its simplicity but ability to still be innovative.


LM Supernova

lmsupernova

The design was inspired by supernovas in space, which the designer describes as 'exploding in a very aggressive way'.

It was commended by the judges for taking functional elements and combining them within a lightweight vehicle.


Mirage

The Mirage was rewarded not only for being innovative but for also combining a unique feature.

It received an innovation award for incorporating layers to create a 3D printed 'crumple zone' to protect the occupants in the case of an accident.


LM e-Spider

lmespider

The e-Spider was designed to try and achieve maximum strength while also using less material.

Judges said: "A tribute to the minimalist in all of us, the e-Spider merges the efficiency of a smart car with the effectiveness of a desert dune buggy."

The Rock&#39;s Mom -- <b>Car</b> Smashed by Drunk Driver in Head on <b>...</b>

Exclusive Details

0810-the-rock-car-crash-instagram-01The Rock says his mom, Ata Maivia-Johnson and his cousin were struck HEAD ON by a drunk driver this week ... and luckily, they survived.

Dwayne Johnson's uncle Afa tells us Ata and Lina Fanene were driving home from a fundraiser their family runs every year -- the Usos Foundation Banquet -- when they were crashed into by the alleged drunk driver.

Both women were rushed to a local hospital and we're told Ata was hospitalized for 3 nights. Afa wouldn't say what injuries the 65-year-old sustained ... but he did tell us it was a very scary scene.

The Rock posted a picture of the crash and his mom's white Escalade -- the one he bought her for Christmas in 2012 -- clearly totaled. Same goes for the other car involved.

Fanene -- who currently works for WWE's NXT division -- posted a photo of the actor/wrestler visiting her in the hospital.

Ata and Lina also posed for a pic in the SUV on August 2nd on their way to the fundraiser.

The Rock tweeted, "First reaction is to find the person who did this and do unrelenting harm to them. But then you realize the most important thing is my family lived thru this and we can hug each other that much tighter these days."
