1Ro~ ~'ould ~ou li~c to ~avc sourself nearly" S l tO? If ,~our car is one of those ttcscribed by the U 3. Environmental lbrotection Agency (EPA) and other sources as ~vasting as much 25 per corn of its gaso- line supply, then such sav- ing arc possible. Simple mathematics tell the sio~'. Say your car travels 15.000 miles a year and is capable of getting 15 miles per gallon. If you are paying 60 cents a gallon tor fuel. your annual expenditure mo~t~ be %6~. Should you l~ losing 25 per cent in gas wasted, then you are out $150. According to that same EPA report, keeping an automobile tuned up can improve fuel economy. And a recent Champion Spark Plug Company sur- vey shows the average cost of a tune-up today is around $42. So a tune-up every 10,- 000 miles plus necessary minor adjustments along the way can save you a W~cc hunE ,o~ ~han~. ~vcn ~ sour car sawes the U.S. and Canadian average of 8.2 per cent after a needed tune-up, you'll still save more in fuel costs than the price of the work. Gas savings under the circumstances described above would be just below $50 per year. According to David L. Walker. Champion's direc- tor of automotive technical services, gasoline savings are only part of the value of a good engine tune-up• Mr. Walker said, "In every test we've ever con- ducked, ,~'w¢ ~ound a tuned car has ]octteT ~oul- weather starting success than a car in need of a tune-up. In fact, untuned cars have twice as many "won't starts' than tuned cars•" A road service call for a start in a remote location where a tow is needed may cost about half the price of a tune-up, he noted. Tune-up benefits that may not result in cash savings still make driving safer and more pleasure- able. Xn ~s~ conduced ~ ~ampion, ena'xsffxon levels were sharply reduced after tune-up. Average carbon monoxide (CO) emissions were reduced 50 per cent (at idle) and hydrocarbon (HC) emissions were 47 per cent lower (also at idle) after tune-up. Performance is also im- proved after tune-up, Mr. Walker noted. In mooile dynamometer tests con- ducted by Champion, there was an 8.6 per cent in- crease in power and an 8.0 per cent decrease in pass- ing distance after tune-up. @ am I I Fours, sixes and solid slate ignition EVEN LESS.

In Vietort- the belt wearing law has been in two years, and they have experienced a 20.8% re- duction in road deaths. In the rest of Australia the seat belt law is just one year old, and there has already been a 17.2% reduction in automobile deaths throughout the country. Serious injuries, they stated, have been reduced by about 50%. TIIE INSIDE STORY A device allowing me- chanics to look inside an automobile engine without. disassembling the engine has been developed by American Optical.

"When a man has a 1~fe- long affection for automo- b~es, he has to find an- other way to keep fond memories alive. That's why Harry Gins- burg, an auto parts store owner from Howell, Michi- gan, has amassed what may be the largest collec- tion of auto emblems in private hands. Glnsburg has nearly 500 of these emblems dating from the turn of the century to some designed for vehicles not even on the road yet. Macabre beginning Birth of Ginsburg's hob- by had a rather macabre beginnLr~. He said, "When I was a child in Klmbal, West Virginia, there was a dangerous mountain road that took its toll of many cars. Times were really hard and we kids used to scavenge what we could from the wrecks. The little emblems caught my eye and I'd pop them off and put them in my pocket." Later when the Gins- burg family moved to Howell, his father Sol Harry Ginsburg, Howell, Mich., auto parts dealer, helps restore a 1916 Saxon. The car is in perfect, drivcable con- dition, showing that a ear ean last indefinitely if it is prop- erly maintained. Ginsburg owns what may be the largest private collection of historic car emblems in the nation, having nearly 500 of them. day realized that the cars they are driving could be valuable classics some day, they'd probably take bet- ter care of them." Mr. Ginsburg's eye for posterity was demon- strated vividly when he heard the ear his son purchased last year will be a discontinued model. "Let me take the em- blem off it now?" father Ginsburg asked son Scott. Oinsburg is interested in adding to his collection. Anyone having an old car emblem can contact Harry Ginsburg, Advanced Auto Parts, 214 W. Grand River Avenue, Howell, Michigan 48843. o~ne0anau~un,,ar~ I I As ears were scrapped, young Harry would re- move the emblems and store them in an old car trunk. Before he knew it he had collected a sizeable number of the decorative symbols. Worth hundreds Mr. Ginsburg doesn't know actually how valu- able his collection is. He said, "I have one hood ornament from a Pierce Arrow that I've been of- fered several hundred dol- lars for. But I'm not interested in selling. My son, Scott, loves my col- lection almost as much as I do and it's going to be a legacy to him." Although he owns clas- sic emblems, he does not indulge in collecting clas- sic cars. He beams, "I love to help friends restore classic cars.

In that year, the rate was 16.5 deaths per 100 million miles. ,AFUt 426-8295 SHELTON BRANCH Harry James, Manager Lou Secord, Assistant Manager Shirley Pogreba, Assistant Manager $14 to $26 4 Rayon ]~'~l~ you Cord Belts .
