  1. Oddly enough I just bookmarked this article today. I thought it was interesting because as a Docent at the Simeone Automotive Museum we talk about how racing was instrumental in the development of the automobile. I admit I don't know much about NASCAR but it seems those days are really over.http://www.metcalfracing.com/live_pages/Rants.php

  13. Actually my dream car to drive from the collection would be the Shelby Daytona Coupe. . The car that set 23 speed and endurance records on the Bonneville Salt Flats in 1965.
  14. The car was donated by the Gibson family of Harrisburg PA so it is likely that the car was displayed at Carlisle. It is a very generous donation. And the car has a wonderful history. I have attached a picture of the day we got her and everyone was standing around in awe. Sorry for quality. Also you can see “Shiny” Bob Goldstein, Simeone Museum Volunteer in the bottom left hand corner getting to work straightaway.
  15. We do indeed have this wonderful Renault! Please come and visit us and see it in person. We are right by the Philadelphia International Airport - perfect way to spend a layover.
  16. Dave Hutchison of Ragtops and Roadsters along with Pete Rohrbacher and the Simeone Foundation Automotive Museum in Philadelphia are putting together a single marque exhibit of ACs for the Simeone Museum's annual "Best of Britain" show. Thus far these shows have been an assortment of historic British sports or racing cars made up of various manufacturers products. For this year's show we are endeavoring to tell the story of AC Cars Ltd from its birth with the Three Wheel Box Delivery vehicle through the final model developed and produced at Thames Ditton the 3000ME. It is our objective to present a representative example of each major type produced by AC and display them in chronological order to illustrate the evolution of these very special vehicles. We have been quite successful in reaching out to owners across the country and have examples from pre-WWI until the closing of Thames Ditton in the mid 1980's. We have not yet been successful in finding any Anzani engined examples from the 1920's and are hoping to find a few more cars to add to the show. Ideally we would like to find a Sociable, a 12/24 Empire, a 12/24 Royal and a 12/40 Sports. Maybe even a 16/40 Acedes and a 16/56 or 16/66 as well. We have a few sponsors lined up, Sunoco being one. A few more are in the stages of being confirmed. The show will run from February 18th until March 12th and will include an opening reception for the participants on the 18th with several special guests who were involved in racing these cars post WWII. If anyone knows of a car that might be able to participate would you please contact me. Any memorabilia would also be welcome. Our goal is to give an inclusive representation of the marque and to develop an exhibit that will allow these cars and their histories to come alive. Appreciate any help members provide. Kelly Dietrick Docent and Ambassador for the Simeone Automotive Museum
  17. I believe he meant limited slip differential but I believe this would normally be followed by a ratio.
  18. That's so funny. These are notes from the elderly caretaker and I asked him the exact question. I am still waiting for an answer. Seriously don't make my job any harder than it is I removed it but if this car comes with Power differential (whatever that is) and the next buyer doesn't know it - I put the blame on you.
