Harley's Forty-Eight (From $10,500) is the latest in their Dark Custom line, a hot rod-inspired line of bikes with raw, industrial styling. Its brutish appearance is backed by a 1200cc V-Twin engine and features a classic 2.1 gallon "peanut" fuel tank, blacked-out hardware, low Sportster seat, and chopped rear and front fenders.
The set features a 14-inch diagonal screen, complete with rabbit-ear antennae and chrome legs. It even has old-school knobs for changing channels and adjusting volume. However, this set has a modern digital tuner, composite video for your retro video game console, and a wireless remote so it’s not completely antique tech.
The sets are available in the orange color shown above (model 14SR1EB) and a dark brown (model 14SR1DB). At this point the LG Serie 1 Retro Classic TV is currently only available in Korea, where it currently retails for 249,000 KRW (appx. $216 USD).

Inspired by the original Blitzen-Benz from 1909, designer George Yoo has developed a futuristic racing vehicle concept to take the Mercedes-Benz’s long lived racing heritage into the future. Entitled the “BlitzenBenz,” the concept car generates power from an advanced Hygenius hybrid hydrogen engine propelling four in-wheel electric motors. The sports car also includes a hydrogen storage tank in the side pocket, underneath the cockpit, to show the fuel level in a small window, creating the sense of water being recycled throughout the vehicle.
The exterior of the BlitzenBenz is made of intelligent and adaptable components that can be grown instead of manufactured, thanks to the latest developments in nanotechnology, which other than presenting an organic body structure also keeps individual wheel pods intact.
