60+ year old thread.

Early birds! I'll soon be on my way into office #2, where they sometimes have scrapple for the breakfast crowd. (Just letting you know I am not a total to emoticons.)

Wiper switch was easy, once I found out where the screws were that held the shroud together. It didn't hurt having one in my hand to figure out where the retaining clip was either.

I'm really jealous of you guys and your project/race cars. I need to build a garage first. I have a 2005 STi that I put 100K miles on, and I want to convert it into a track day / hillclimb car.

 

which track mike? going to be fun for sure. coming down from the post 1st race high might take a long time, Watkins and lime rock I have not been to since the early 70's when I stopped running formula v Volkswagens

TIRES??? how about times 2 cars, doubt those nice sticky/costly bfg's for the cobra will last long either, as my street already shows 2 very long black steaks running down it, the vet I don't really care if it stays numbers or retro rod. retro simply as mike knows means more fun with the go pedal.

 

Morning Charlie.
Thompson CT road course reopened and repaved. We are the first official race on the course.
Last post till later tonight.
Have a good day all....

 

stay safe and enjoy mike. island dragway for me this weekend test and tune the cobra

 

x2 on the stay safe and enjoy for both you guys.

Looking forward to reading the stories.


Mornin'' all, have a great day.

 

here is some mouth water moose. got some shots some where of the tires and wheels,

 

That is a nice shop Charlie. Pics are not shabby at all either. How is the floor coating holding up? I want to do a garage make over in the next 2 years and really need to do something with the floors.

 

Wow Charlie, that engine! i'm gonna need a moment here.

Looks AWESOME. Enjoy my friend.

 

not the shop. that is the garage. hot water radiant heat in the floors helps in the winter. 2 stage epoxy is holding up super good. has not yet chipped from dropped tools and parts,

moqqse. that motor better be good eye candy for what it cost!! any guesses?

 

Just a guess but 15 to 17k

 

You're good!

How are you doing Jim?

 

Sick as fuck, would have get better to die.. other then that outstanding

 

Just wow,,,

 

Stay safe Jim! Looks like you have some nasty weather right now.

 

Hope it passes. You truly are a stubborn cool old dude, classifying sickness worse than death.

Dayum!

x2

 

evening

feel better Jim

 

good morning every one. wife said I was out cold in front of the tube by 2000 hours last night, woke up still on the sofa. got to stop working days in this humidity,

good guesses guys. 15 for the motor with the options add another 3 for the transzilla 5 speed tremic.
weather here isn't looking good either rain today yet not as bad as the mid west and upper west coast

 

TGIF...Morning all...Hey Charlie, engine looks ...hope it performs as good as it looks...In my younger years living in NY I used to go to National Speedway on the Island to watch the Drag races on Sundays. Good time enjoying the pits...drooled a lot cause I couldn't afford any of them...

Hope you feel better Jim...did you get bit by one of those mosquitos with that chickimunga (sp.) disease??? they say it is worse then the flu...
