Love the picture of the Jag and Porsche. Like two old friends stopped to have a chat.
The amazing racing Alfa in the bridge! Thanks again for showing me the car. Great history.
That is a seriously rare Lancia. Hope to see it at one of the cars and coffee meetings. From what I’ve read, Lancia lied and made fewer than 100...
So I got a really strange catalog today from a leather maker named Martin Dingman. I have no connections to this company and am not posting this...
Early ones were a bit under-cooked. The 4+3 transmission is “fine” if it is maintained. The Atari dash is an acquired taste and a bugger to fix...
Great to hear! Time to make copies before they disappear again ;) FWIW, my copies are on Ilco/Silca blanks. No need to pay Nieman prices for daily...
Great car! When I got my LT4, I was trying to find a 94 or 95 ZR1, but then my car popped up at Bill Kay Corvettes (15 miles from my house) and...
[ATTACH] C4 corvettes still aren’t cool. Even c—forum people slag off on them :)
My father and I did this with Fiat 124s (more than I care to think about at least 10 over the years), MGAs (4 total), and TR4s (3 total). Some...
Time for an intervention. Grab your son and take the Dino to the fall vintage races at RA, 9/16-9/18. Weather permitting they’ll have the zip line...
I know what you mean. I have a love hate relationship with Friends of the Parks. They often get lost between the letter of Burnham’s law and the...
You might also want to call Sport and Specialty and ask who does their paint. I’ve seen a couple cars they restored and they look very nice. I...
Skip did a wheel for me in spring 2021. AFAIK he is still open.
Skip McCabe does amazing work and is honest. He is always busy, so I’m not sure if he will fit with your timeframe. His shop is in Mundelein....
In 1962 a sports car was a two seat coupe or convertible intended for spirited driving with few creature comforts. Djets were good for around 100...
AFAIK, the D’jet was the first mid-engine product sports car. I think the first one was made in 1962 IIRC.
“Calling ls based engines stupid because its ohv? Tell me you know nothing about cars without telling me you know nothing about cars.” Agreed....
Adding to your seats comment, 1980s/1990s 3x8 and Mondial seats were nothing to write home about. Marginally better than corvette leather seats....
