Volvo P1800 Gets Modernized

Filed under: Cars, Cool Ish, Design

volvo-p1800

Vöx is now taking on a new challenge, this time with another Volvo to modify and mold into a formidable driving machine. Taking the famous P1800, one of Volvo’s first sports cars, Vöx will be updating it to be a little more modern than the original 1960s version. To accomplish this, he has also enlisted the help of Swedish design firm Vizualtech, which has already created a number of computer generated renderings depicting the new custom car.

This Volvo is kinda hot….

Thanks Tim

Next Level Benz

Filed under: Cars, Cool Ish, Design

I’m not even sure where exactly to start with this one. The future meets the past doesn’t begin to do this any justice. According to Yanko Design:

What better way to showcase the future of hydrogen-electric fuel cell technology than with this stunning roadster concept. For nearly a year, 150 “trainees and dual education system students worked on the overall concept, development, assembly, and completion of the F-CELL Roadster.” Basically a bunch of design students were brought on by Daimler to “demonstrate how the topic of sustainable mobility has become an integral part of our vocational training…” The result is not only a throw back to the Benz Patent Motor Car from 1886, but a leap forward with integrated next-gen technologies like a drive-by-wire joystick replacing the traditional steering wheel and an emission free fuel cell system.

Umbro Tailored for Reed Space

There has been a lot of talk and hype about the new England kit that will be making its debut this Saturday against Slovakia. Sneak peaks have been posted and lots of feedback has come in on these unofficial images of the new jerseys. The thing about this new jersey, that in my opinion is a game changer, is the blending of English tailoring with the needs and demands of the performance of the players.
