Vince Taliano Cadillac & LaSalle Club Potomac Region Caddie Chronicle November 2008 DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE BY VINCE TALIANO Shortly after last year’s Legacy of LaSalle, Daniel Jobe emailed me 2008 OFFICERS: about a possible theme for this year’s fall car show. He said, “What do REGIONAL DIRECTOR you think about Cadillac Dream Cars? Is that something the members NEWSLETTER EDITOR WEBSITE MANAGER would like?” My reply was, “Yeah, I think so!” We discussed it from VINCE TALIANO time to time throughout the year, but we didn’t really start to seriously ASSISTANT REGIONAL DIRECTOR pursue it until after the CLC Grand National in August. We even had an DAN RUBY alternative theme in case the Cadillac Dream Cars was just a dream. NATIONAL DIRECTOR BILL SESSLER Daniel contacted General Motors in August and emailed me saying that SECRETARY he had good news and bad news. The good news was that four cars ASSOCIATE NEWSLETTER EDITOR were available. The bad news was that there would be a substantial fee VALLEY FORGE REGION LIAISON SANDY KEMPER to cover the expenses to transport the cars from Detroit. The amount CAR SHOW COORDINATORS was actually more than the Potomac Region had in all of its bank CENTRAL PA REGION LIAISONS accounts combined. We quickly figured out that the only way this event DIANE & HENRY RUBY could take place is if the Region’s membership and Capitol Cadillac could TREASURER collectively pay for the added expense. So, I got on the phone and HARRY SCOTT started calling club officers and other key members to determine if they MEMBERSHIP CHAIRMAN NEWSLETTER COLUMNIST would be willing to donate money to fund this special event. The RICHARD SISSON response was overwhelmingly positive. When all was said and done, ACTIVITIES DIRECTOR over 65 members donated a total of $10,800. As a result of Daniel’s CENTRAL VA REGION LIAISON NEWSLETTER COLUMNIST generosity, as well as that of the members and friends of the Potomac STEVEN SISSON Region, Cadillac Dream Cars was a dream come true! OTHER KEY POSITIONS: AUTOMOBILIA AUCTIONEER I would like to take this time to recognize the club’s officers, who HAMPTON ROADS REGION LIAISON worked long and hard to ensure that the event would be a success.

In researching car manufacturing in 1929, we realized that a few well-known companies eclipse the many smaller, perhaps less-successful, companies of the time. Thus, many cars manufactured in 1929 remain virtually unknown. Beverly Rae Kimes and Henry Austin Clark Jr.’s Standard Catalog of American Cars, 1805-1942, identifies over 75 companies that manufactured cars in the United States in 1929. Expanding our purview to international car manufacturers, our number might exceed 200 different car-manufacturing companies in 1929. How many of these car companies still have a surviving prodigy?

  • Surface Protection of Mg Alloys in Automotive Applications: a Review
    AIMS Materials Science, 6(4): 567–600. DOI: 10.3934/matersci.2019.4.567 Received: 15 February 2019 Accepted: 04 May 2019 Published: 04 July 2019 http://www.aimspress.com/journal/Materials Review Surface protection of Mg alloys in automotive applications: A review Jie Wang1, Xin Pang2 and Hamid Jahed1,* 1 Department of Mechanical & Mechatronics Engineering, University of Waterloo, Waterloo, ON, Canada N2L 3G1 2 CanmetMATERIALS, Natural Resources Canada, Hamilton, ON, Canada L8P 0A5 * Correspondence: Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Mg alloys find widespread applications in transportation industries especially in cars and trucks because of their edges in light-weight design, which can greatly help improve the fuel efficiency and decrease the gas emissions of vehicles; However, Mg alloys’ high sensitivity to the corrosive environments limit their penetration in automotive applications. Surface coating is one of the most effective and economic ways to protect Mg alloys from corrosion. Presently, the currently researched and commercial coatings that are specifically applied to Mg alloys in the automotive industry are reviewed in this paper. With some Mg automotive components subjected to corrosion and repeated load simultaneously, corrosion fatigue of coated Mg alloys are reviewed as well. Additionally, a part of attention in this review is given to the assessment approaches of corrosion and corrosion fatigue performance of coated Mg alloys for the purpose of material/surface coating system selection. Finally, some corrosion-related

Tech Preview of the 2005 Domestics BY PAUL WEISSLER Chrysler 300 After a multiyear infatuation with SUVs, the domestic automakers have ‘rediscovered’ the automobile. Our annual report covers several all-new models that have resulted from this new marketing direction. ord is calling 2005 the Year of the Car, and is introduc- ing brand-new cars and carlike “crossover” vehicles. But Fit’s not alone, as General Motors and the Chrysler Group also are focusing on the passenger car for 2005. At Ford, the new Mustang gets the most head-turning looks, of course, but the new Ford 500 and Mercury Montego sedans, and the Freestyle “almost SUV,” are a higher volume group. At Chrysler, the in-your-face 300 and Dodge Magnum wagon are getting plenty of attention. And GM has several significant new Dodge Magnum cars—the compact Chevrolet Cobalt (which replaces the Cava- lier), Pontiac G6 (replacing the Grand Am), Buick LaCrosse (replacing the Regal and Century), Cadillac STS (replacing the Seville) and the Corvette, which is irreplaceable. Let’s delve further into it and see what the three domestic camps are offering for 2005. Ford The Ford 500 and its sister Mercury Montego clearly are cars, but what’s the Freestyle? The North American Car of the Year jury placed it in the truck/SUV category (it has suspension modifications to increase ride height and a wagon-type body with three-row seating), but it’s technically very close to the 500.
