ah_the_lengths_we_went_to_to_measure_Motion_ratio
We made some weird and wonderful tools like this interesting piece to measure motion tration through the arc of wheel travel. The pen in the tube marked the increments on the plate at intervals as we lifted the wheel from droop to bump

I'm not a purist and it is a replica, no matter what I do, it will never be the real thing, just like 90% of the other cars on this site...enjoy what you have and drive the wheels off 'em.

Valve cover Ford Motorsport.
Roush Motorsport valve covers, pity they milled out part of cover for a decal, we will make some decals.
These covers make the engine look more like a Ford than the fabricated alloy covers on the engine.

Notching a Weiand Stealth manifold like Edelbrock Air-Gap
My "home made" Bridgeport Mill...well, have a milling bit anyway...took a while to figure out how to feed the work so the bit wouldn't chatter. First pass the bottom was uneven. Second pass rigged up a better support and got the notch parallel to the carb pad.

Shelby Show 5/11/13
"Honey, yes, I need 2 gallons of distilled water and a bunch of microfiber cloths".
I crept at a snail's pace in a long line of Shelby's latest Mustangs for almost 30 minutes and it was starting to get hot. They finally let me in. I got out, stretched and poof! The green steam show. Luckily the hood was down because people could have been burned and the Tiger next to me wouldn't have been happy. Coolant shot out of the hood scoop like a toddler sneezing through his nose. Nothing some water and a 5/16" wrench couldn't fix but what a mess.
Thanks for the help, Dean! (RedBarchetta)
Woudn't have been the same without 'cooler heads' (pun intended) prevailing!

Colo. burning 2013
The South Fork fire. We had just come through South Fork and Creede. A couple hours after this was taken the highway was closed and the towns evacuated. The picture doesn’t do it justice, it looked like a volcano.

Hemmings Motor News, January 1980
This is 2286 again. Mr. Soprano, owner of Motor Classics, acquired the car around Aug/Sep/Oct 1979 for a then bargain (though certainly an outrageous sum of money for the time) price, which was somewhere around $80k to $90k. Was probably already a 6-figure car by late 1978.
Sources indicate that he had the car up for sale for awhile. He never disclosed his price in print, but revealed it to serious inquirers. From Nov 79 thru Mid 80 the price was $150k.
The car wasn't sold until 1982, and it is likely that the price paid was a good deal more than what he had been asking 2 years prior.

Shelby Day at Palos Verdes Coffee and Cars
Early arrivals for Shelby day at Palos Verdes Coffee and Cars.
The blu/whi is a McCluskey/Kirkham with Dralle 427 S/O.
I'm in the middle.
Dean (RedBarchetta) drove up from OC. SPF747 looking great as always.
This is minutes after showing a Porsche Carrera GT what "first one up the hill" looks like. Wife took it very well.
Michael from Racing Division LA has his RCR GT40 in the background.
