* If you’re going to develop a gas-turbine car, it had better look like it came from a Buck Rogers future. Fiat covered that base with its tri-turbine 1954 Turbina, profiled this week on Fuel Magazine.
* One of the more intriguing parts ads to come through the Hemmings classifieds lately was this RCA under-dash dealer-install 45 RPM record player. For those of you besotted with early in-car tunes, the New York Times this week took a look at pre-iPod in-car music.

* Finally, Michael Harrington at Worst Blog Ever! brought us a short yet poignant Fourth of July post this past week comparing an old Duesenberg engine with the good ol’ U.S.A.
