Wonder what happens if the spoke part of the wheel hits a pothole? No bending there

Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this unique 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1. This car not only has the famous first-generation Mach 1 351 Cleveland V8 engine, but it is literally bulletproof. I do not mean that as terminology, but this car’s cockpit is equipped with a clandestine NIJ level 3a ballistic protection package. If you want to be like John Wick and be able to look awesome but also feel protected, finally the car has arrived. This armor will protect against a .44 Magnum, Semi Hollow Point bullets and 9mm full metal jacket bullets with nominal masses of 15.55 g impacting at a velocity of 1,400 ft per second or less. It also provides against most handgun threats as well as level I, IIA, and II threats. The windows and glass are not rated to stop projectiles. The Ballistic package present in the vehicle is meant to be hidden so protection cannot be observed.

Titanosaurs were the giants of the giants—four-legged behemoths that stomped around Cretaceous South America and Africa 100 million years ago. The discovery of a previously unknown titanosaur in Tanzania with a unique heart-shaped tailbone is adding to our knowledge of these enigmatic beasts, and how they lived and evolved on the African continent.
