La Vergne, TN – Manufacturing an industrial buffer to meet shop use demands was just what JET® had in mind when they developed their new 8 in. Industrial Buffer. This 44 lb. benchtop dynamo’s entire body is constructed of cast iron with a fully-enclosed industrial housing with factory-sealed, pre-lubricated ball-bearings for reliable, long life use. Rubber mounts at the buffer’s base help eliminate movement, plus dampen vibration.

Safety first. This new JET buffer was designed with operator safety in mind. The buffer’s motor includes brake resistors to shut down the wheels’ rotation so they come to a complete stop in less than 20 seconds.

Another big advantage of this industrial buffer is its variable-speed motor that operates from 900 to 3600 RPM. Plus, there’s no on/off rocker switch. The power interface features an electronic touch pad panel with a power on/off control, flanked by up and down arrows to adjust and monitor the buffer’s speed.

Reviving the Cord Brand with the New Cord Model III

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Nov. 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- It has been more than 50 years since the last Cord automobile was produced, but if everything goes according to Craig Corbell's plan, fans of the brand won't have to wait much longer for the next generation of Cords to start arriving in driveways.

When Glenn Pray bought the Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Co. in 1960, he started working on a new Cord, which was last produced in 1937. It wasn't, however, until 1966 that Pray released his first Cord. The new car was reduced-scale and aptly named the "Cord 810" (8/10th scale). That period of production was short-lived, and only 97 second-generation Cords were built during Pray's tenure.

The brand lay untouched from 1966 until 2014 when the Cord Automobile Company and its trademark and all of the rights associated with the Cord name were put up for auction.

You can catch Jase on Unleashed.TV, where he shows off his intricate workshop skills to fabricate custom accessories that allow him to take his vehicles to the most daring, dangerous and remote corners of the wild Australian outback, conquering brutal terrain without any support or backup plans.

Xtreme 4x4 is an action packed half an hour show airing on Spike TV, where Ian shows us step-by-step what it takes to turn vehicles into off-road-oriented rigs.

FOR RELEASE May 25, 2018

We are pleased to announce the SEMA Show 2018 vehicle unveiling of the 1964 Impala known as "The Battle Ship". CFR Performance and Stealth Motor Works are working together to bring something extraordinary to the SEMA Show 2018.

The "Battle Ship" is the brain child of former NBA star Chris " Big C " Mills. His passion in lowriders and building the renowned 1959 Impala "The Mother Ship" gained him a front cover spread on the January 2017 lowrider magazine. The Mother Ship Impala showcased the attention to detail and creativity of Chris and his team at Stealth Motor Works in building a world class, world famous lowrider.

To make this next project lowrider so unique its going against the grain in the lowrider scene. The Battle Ship will feature all black components instead of the usual chrome. This vehicle will have Small Block Chevy Engine with a blower and the rest must be seen to believe.
