#TB21

[ener-chi]

Joys of the Day:

-Partner was really sweet to me despite having a really hard time

-My classmates were really supportive and happy to see me after being sick

-Made plans to practice Teishin techniques with a classmate over the summer

-Feeling more confident in my understanding of TCM and the points every day! Grateful for that (:

-Grateful for air conditioning! Especially on hot days like today

-Interesting thing! So for the past couple days one of the lingering symptoms that I've been having is this sore/painful spot in my throat. It hurts, and hurts like daggers if I swalloe and especially drink cold water.

Anywho. I've been taking chinese herbs and since then, today the pain has been worse and it like shoots up through my jaw and up to my ear?? Like right up to the TMJ

And so I decided to use my Teishin and push on some points near that area - specifically TB21, but also SI19 and GB2.

Hooo man it hurt soo bad. But like... it feels like whatever is in my throat is shooting up and clearing out of my ear?? Idk it's wild

OH ANDDD there are two points on the hand/wrist that connect very strongly to the ears - TB3 and TB5. And when I pressed on them, I did feel sensation in my ears, and it felt like when your ears are going through a change in pressure like on a plane, which was interesting. And it did help (: very cool

Anywho. Hope everyone has a goodnight!

Blessings!

One Rare Brit

Admiring the 1952 Alvis TB21 Sports Tourer LHD Prototype

By Bradley Harris

Events like the Pebble Beach Concours D’Elegance or museums like the Peterson offer the opportunity to see some incredibly rare and significant vehicles - vehicles you may only ever get to see in person once in a lifetime. These opportunities are thrilling, but also can be a tad sterile or uptight, and lack that last degree of engagement that car enthusiasts crave. That’s where Cars and Coffee events come in, taking place in locations around the world every weekend. At Cars and Coffee, enthusiasts can mingle in a very casual manner with other enthusiasts and owners of vehicles that are running and get driven, if not regularly then at least occasionally. Without the concern for awards and judging, and the lack of ropes or guards from getting up-close and personal with vehicles, these events are where the passion for cars really comes alive. Friendly owners often allow excited children and adults alike to oggle an engine up close, or sit in their dream vehicle while they tell them about cool features or an incredible story they have with the car.

Attending the first Cars and Coffee Manhattan Beach event since the pandemic started brought the opportunity to admire some truly special vehicles. This particular event normally takes place on the last Saturday of every month at The Point (850 S. California 1, El Segundo, CA). 

Amongst all of the gorgeous and/or unique vehicles was one in particular that caught my eye. The name Alvis is rarely ever heard or known of here in the US, and they’re definitely not a common sight, with only 8 of this specific model making their way here over the years. They were constructed in England and sold mostly in the UK from 1919 until 1967, and were vehicles considered to be on par with Bentley for their engineering and luxury. This particular model, a 1952 TB21 Sports Tourer, with just 31 examples ever constructed, is just as rare to see as a Ferrari 250 GTO. Lucky for me, this one showed up, the rarest of them all, and I got a chance to chat with this car’s owner, Sandy Bettelman.

Bettelman is an incredibly friendly guy with a great 5-car collection, and was happy to show me around his beautiful Alvis and tell me a little about its history. As it turns out, this vehicle is a prototype, and the only one if its kind in the world! What makes this TB21 different from the other 30 examples constructed is that it is left-hand drive and has 4 seats, where every other example is right-hand drive and has 2 seats. It was constructed for potential export to America, but due to cost, production ended for the TB21 after just one year. The car thus remained in England, where it served for a very short time as the personal car of William M. Dunn, the company’s chief engineer. 

The car then was imported to New Zealand by Motor Lines Limited in October 1952 as a two seater, with the rear seat area completely closed off. The car was restored in 1967 by P. K. Andrews, the former managing director of Andrew Motors Limited, the local Alvis distributor, to its original design as a 4-seater, and it’s incredible to see the car in such pristine condition today considering that was the only restoration ever performed on it. The car then changed hands again, making its way to Germany before Bettelman bought the car and brought it to California in 2017.

The car features a 3.0-liter straight six engine with with a single SU carburetor making 90HP, and is attached to a 4-speed manual transmission. The engine and chassis are shared with the Alvis TA21 saloon, as is the traditional upright Alvis chrome grille. Atop the grille is the Alvis “Speed Eagle” hood ornament. Several of the body panels are crafted of aluminum to save weight. Inside the the engine bay, there are 6 additional spark plugs mounted to the firewall, in case the owner ever needed to change them on the go. The windshield is split, and either side can be folded down. It uses trafficators, or semiphores, in the front fenders to notate the driver’s desire to turn. These were common practice prior to turn indicator lamps. 

Bettelman drives each of the vehicles in his collection at least once a week, including this one, which is fantastic, considering so many great cars never leave their collections and never get to see the road or light of day again! This is something I wish more collectors would do, as the real joy of a car becomes palpable only from behind the wheel as one hears the engine rev and feels and hears the rush of wind at speed. Cars are designed with the express purpose of transporting the driver and passengers, and I’m happy to hear that Bettelman uses them as intended. The Alvis, he says, is actually pretty fast and fun to drive. I can only imagine the thrill of it, hearing the 3.0-Liter sing as the wind rushes by. 

If you’re interested in finding a Cars and Coffee near you, many of them have their own website as well as dedicated pages on Facebook and/or Instagram. If you want to get up close and personal with some of your favorite cars, and find out about cars you’d never even known existed, I highly suggest checking them out. You’ll thank me later :)
