Saturday, January 21, 2012
SAN CARLOS, Calif. -- A company founded by Neil Young is facing a lawsuit over a fire in the San Francisco Bay Area that authorities say started in a vintage car the rocker had converted into a hybrid vehicle.
The San Jose Mercury News reports that Unigard Insurance Co. sued LincVolt LLC this week, accusing the company of negligence for converting the 1959 Lincoln Continental to run on electricity and a biodiesel-powered generator.

A Southern man don’t need him around anyhow.
He’s an expert on Electric Model Trains. No reason it won’t translate to a Lincoln.
It is possible that the storage company had a rule against storing flammable liquids such as gasoline along with storing vehicles.
He screwed-up a classic Lincoln.Neal Young's Converted 1959 Lincoln Continental
No Lionel Trains went bankrupt IIRC.
Yes he likes his trains. Maybe was hoping to transfer that technology into automobiles. He should have consulted Boxcar Willie.
As it turns out Neil Young is leveraging his Lionel Train experience modelling the new California Rail System.
We now know from that fiasco in England, that the weak point of the POTUS limo is the suspension.
I could not find the specs, but the builder is using either air or hydraulic suspension. Either way, the lines to the struts are exposed as well as the struts themselves.

It can handle anything. Except a four inch curb. It’s a POTUS metaphor.
It’s better to burn out
Than to fade away
My, my, hey, hey
Or, OR......rip the floor pans out and then put on latex Flintstone feet and really go GREEN.
BATTERIES????? WE DON’T NEED NO STINKING BATTERIES??!!!!!
Those were the good old days.....sigh.
I like the bit about flames..:^)
I had flames coming from out of the side
Feel the tension, man what a ride
I said “Look out boys, I've got a license to fly”
And that Caddy pulled over and let us by
All of the sudden she started knocking
Down in the dips she started rocking
I looked in the mirror. Red lights were blinking
The cops was after my Hot Rod Lincoln - Damn
The arrested me and they put me in jail
Called my pappy to throw my bail
And he said “Son, you're going to drive me to drinkin’
If you don't stop driving that Hot Rod Lincoln”
That said if Mallory ever offered me to run CONNDOT, I would refuse since I don't have experience in running real trains.
