If you are tired of the poor illumination that your car headlights offer, here is an ideal replacement to get brighter and whiter lighting for cars through the night. The Sylvania 9003 SU BP TWIN SilverStar Ultra Headlight Pack boasts of a dual filament for 55W/65W providing 100% street legal illumination.

This new car headlight bulbs will provide better and reliable lighting which promises a longer life compared to others in the market. This operates with internal gas pressure which significantly reduces the rate of tungsten evaporation. Its analogous non-halogen incandescent lamp operates the same filament temperature with greater luminance and efficiency.

Going small is the solution that many deem to resolve the whole fuel efficiency issue but how small is small? Well for this native British guy, it measures an absurd 39 inches tall, 26 inches wide and 51 inches long! 47 year old Terry Watkins has built one of the possibly smallest cars we have seen today which makes use of a motor that is similar to the home-based lawn mowers.

The chassis started out as a children’s toy car, and after Watkins bolted on working headlights and tail lights, windshield wipers, turn signals and a horn, he was allowed to tack on a license plate and make it fully street legal. Now, you might see him scooting around the streets of Staffordshire in this little crazy car at speeds of up to 40mph.

Crazy as the idea may seem, it is something that can possibly kick off. Cute but certainly something that may not be fitted for the roads along with the other hybrids and still existent modern day cars we see.

In a move that was supposed to help General Motors get rid of excess cars from its Heritage Collection, the anticipated weekend sale in Florida has been stopped all thanks to the intervention of the Federal Government. The cars are either duplicates, or cars like the millionth Saturn to be built, or cars from Car Shows that were modified with paint jobs

Greg Wallace with the Heritage collection says there was nothing for sale that was pivotal to their core historic collection. Buyers were eager to buy.

The NHTSA has halted the sale, saying that the new owners may try to register and drive some of the cars that were not street legal. GM says its been upfront with collectors that the cars all have salvage titles and cannot be registered for normal use. The agency has taken the Easter weekend off and won’t discuss the matter until Monday.
