Bl0 - Wedmesday, May 5, 1982 - North Shore News » RRND a co RRR od HARTFORD, Conn. (UPI) - Thomas Zeimba says his 1982 Chevy stationwagon should be against the law and hired a private plane to lobby state legislators for the “Lemon Law.” Zeimba hired a private plane to fly over the state Capitol trailing a banner reading: “My Chevy is one reason why Connecticut needs the Lemon Law.” The measure, currently before the Legislature, would require manufac- turers to give buyers a new car if there is a defect that cannot be fixed after four tnes. The problem would have to surface within the normal warranty period. Zeimba has flown over the Capitol half a dozen times since he bought his $14,000 Chevy diesel station wagon in December 1981. Zeimba said the day he drove the car out of the lot it was leaking oil, the tem- perature gauge was in- accurate, the cruise control failed to work and the wind sounded like it was whipping around inside. Today, he said, the gauge is still 80 degrees off and the wind continues to blow inside. Ziemba claims the GM representative told him it was a characteristic of the model and he would have to live with it.

Faced with the problems of diminishing resources and ising fuel prices, air pollution and traffic jams, limited parking space and the high cost of car Maintenance, com- muters are beginning to seek alternative forms of tran- sportation. “3 Wheeling” examines the factors in- volving changing car design and shows how one group of B.C. designers, Blythe Rogers, Murray Tonkin, and Miles Fenton, approach the issues. ° The exhibit examines the history of three wheeled vehicle design, the art and science used by the designers, and the technology demonstrated in the construction of a “Rascal”. Three wheeled vehicles are not a new invention as a series of photographs at the exhibit will illustrate. Today, as in the past, three wheeled K® ¢ N poe ‘ana: 04 FOR RESERVATIONS vehicles take a vanety of forms, some are wierd, impractical contraptions, some have the potential for extremely high per- formance. The designers of the “Rascal” have used a three wheeled model to create an energy efficient, fiberglass car with few. parts and an aerodynamic design. Graphics will illustrate stages in the simplification of the original design. leading to the most efficient, lowest cost vehicle. Over the six months of the exhibition a “Rascal” will be built at the Arts, Sciences & Technology Centre. The fiberglass molding process starts from the plugs which will be made at the Centre, then taken to a workshop to Authorized Oealer Gordon & Alma, Vancouver Every Mother will be presented with a beautiful carnation with our compliments Sunday Brunch 10 a.m.-2 p.m. $595 sunday Evening Buffet 4:30 p.m. - 8 p.m. $Q50 700 Lillooet Rd., North Vancouver IMPORT AUTOS LTD. 985-3111 ree-wheel in 3-whee “Lemon law’ made F be used in molding. Once the molds and pteces have been cast, they will be brought back to the Centre and the first “Rascal” will be assembled. The development of the “Rascal” will be ac- companied by a series of weekly talks and demon- strations on topics such as seating, upholstery, finish, fuel comparison, engines and the molding process. In the “hands-on” section of the exhibition, visitors may experience the prin- ciples and properties of aerodynamics, stability. maneouverability and momentum and learn how the designers of the “Rascal” have blended science and art to create a technology to meet the needs of the future.
