Hemmings Motor News, April 1986
This is CSX-2321. It found its next owner the following month. 27 years later (as of 2013) it is still in the same hands.

Daily Driver
A street driven small block car seen at the Steamboat Springs, CO. vintage races in 1994. This same car appeared at the 1998 Steamboat races painted red. (They both had the same license plate.) Possibly it is CSX 2545.
Contact me at lightcatcher@bresnan.net for more details.

Arntz tranny tunnel
Shown here is the removable section of the tranny tunnel. With the big engine setback in all the Arntz / Butler cars, you can remove the transmission while seated if you desire. Only a few very late Butlers had this and all Arntz Type 4 cars. I have no idea what the many cutouts are for  Also shown are the two triangulation tubes that connect the center of the cowl hoop to the 2 main frame rails for increased rigidity. The 3rd leg of the roll bar (not shown) also attaches to the same point on the passenger side frame rail. This is Arntz Type 4 only as well.

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!

B8A-8100-A 1963-64 version
This is the common radiator cap for Cobras using the Ford-McCord supplied coolant expansion tank. Ford used this "part number" for various vehicles 1957 (starting with 1958 model year) through approximately 1966. That does not mean the same tools and same exact details were used all those years. Early caps included a "B8A" text on one ear of the cap.

Another new toy !! Newbomb Turk's 1956 Pie Wagon
This 1956 Chevrolet sedan delivery was mildly hot rodded in the 1970's, with a 327 and automatic transmission, and painted orange. It was placed for sale in the front yard, and purchased by Columbia Pictures in 1979 for an upcoming movie, "Hollywood Knights". Graphics were added to the side panels, and rear door hatch, transforming into the main character's car, Newbomb Turk's Pie Wagon, featuring Robert Wuhl. After the filming was completed, selected movie theater owners were entered in a raffle, and the winner won this vehicle, residing in the Massachusets area. After 15 years, the car was sold locally to a "Chevy" parts guru. He removed the body, cleaning / sand blasting the frame, rebuilding the suspension, and transplanting in a new crate 350 with a muncie 4 speed. The exterior of the car, and interior of the car was left in the same condition that it has when it appeared in the movie. Great car.
