    Aren't those old news reels interesting? We see plastics so much these days, it's hard to think about it being a mysterious new material! Thanks for sharing the video.

    Again this new system doesnt make sense, i put this under traditional hot rods as a tech artical.... Shouldnt this be? I mean that's how i watched it, the basics for formulas, producion and such, i've been researching different types of plastic for making parts and stumbled across this...

    Fantastic
    I am a big fan of the Bakelite dash - done exceptionally well by the British small car industry pre and post WW2.
