Shelby got into trouble in 1993 when he was alive trying to make a continuation run of 43 cars that he had S/N's for, but no chassis. Here is a...
My point exactly. There are tons of XK engines available on the used market and all you need is a block number and the car is a "rebuilt" old...
It could be sold as a track day only car, and run in vintage races... Since it is not legal on the street it would not be as useful as an...
Nice looking ride. Swifts are pretty sweet airplanes when done right. The 145 hp motor is a big deal. While the 125 works it's amazing how...
Not if you want a real track car.. The 1LE is so heavy that you'd be going thru brakes like Grant took Richmond.... And in the end you have a...
Remember that there are lots of different cars that all look like Corvettes.. Depending on how it is optioned and how it is set up, there is a...
You've said this a couple of times and it really isn't true.... The "transaxle" in the Corvettes is actually just a conventional rear...
Are any of us who have followed Schuster's attempts to "privatize" ATC surprised by this at all??? The airlines keep paying off congressmen with...
The photoshopped version isn't near correct. Look at the distance between the door cutline and the rear axle centerline in the mule. Much...
I seem to recall that this is correct. In the US all cars had to have "sealed beam" headlights and that didn't change until the mid-80's or...
Head restraints were mandatory on all vehicles sold in the U.S. after 1 January 1969. Typically in those days if the car cleared port of entry...
Those were neat cars... Stiffer than all getout but really neat.. I used to have a set of Dymags that was a spare set off of one of those cars...
I wasn't really thinking ZR1 in my response since there aren't that many of them around. With a ZR1 you need to take it easy on the brakes if you...
For cars built after 1988, the J55 (stock big brakes) are fine for anything short of real serious track duty. Remember these brakes have 13 inch...
Exactly. The airlines are pushing for "user fees" and that sounds like a fair way to do it, at first blush... But what they really want is...
I worked at the Allison division on gas turbines, it was an eighth level job and that got you on the PEP plan. I was autocrossing at the top rung...
All good observations, the stock LT motor cars would do over 170 if you had enough room to run them out. One thing that I tried never to do...
Number one has to be the ZR1, the 4 cam motor is so strong and sweet. Number two is the 93-95 Z06, it's the best handling of all of them, and...
All true but even the stiffest front spring available rate is 20% softer and the rear is 40% softer than the earlier Z07 cars and in the base cars...
The worst thing about the 4+3 is that it shifts like a truck. The ZF is so sweet that it's like night and day. The ZF is a modern "rail" shifter...
