  2. This is no longer a car...It's garage art and bragging rights. Think mechanical Warhol, Kandinsky, Pollock. Fun for the 1%'ers.

  7. A sports and racing enthusiast, he wrote several books including 1983's "The Language of Sport," 1997's "American Grand Prix Racing: A Century of Drivers & Cars" and 2018's "Twice Around the Clock: The Yanks at Le Mans." https://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/news/tim-considine-my-three-sons-and-patton-actor-dies-at-81/ar-AAUD8aD?ocid=mailsignout&li=BBnb7Kz Inspiring Automotive Enthusiast Tim Considine is the author of the book Twice Around The Clock – The Yanks at Le Mans, a massive multi-volume, unapologetically chauvinistic personal history of hundreds of American drivers and the American cars that have participated in the epic 24 Hours of Le Mans. Yanks is a frank, sometimes blunt, personal account told in great part by the players – the drivers, mechanics and team owners who were there, which is what makes the work unique. As Tim likes to say, “Yanks adds humanity, and a fair bit of profanity, to history.” Each of the three volumes (four more to come) is close to 120,000 words in length with approximately 300 curated black and white and color images from around the world, interspersed throughout – many never seen before. It is the culmination of Tim’s research and interviews conducted for over 28 years and written over the last six years and Volumes I-III cover from 1923 through 1979. Twice Around The Clock – The Yanks at Le Mans was voted Best Book of the Year by the Motor Press Guild and the author given their highest honor, the Dean Batchelor Award for Excellence in Automotive Journalism.
  8. Replica vehicles and kit cars have long been a way for enthusiasts to get a piece of some of the greatest examples of automotive unobtainium. Thanks to the efforts of the Specialty Equipment Market Association and their partners lobbying Congress, the replica market is about to get a lot bigger. Customers in the United States will now be able to legally purchase turn-key, factory-assembled replica vehicles, based on designs more than 25 years old, now that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially implemented the Low Volume Motor Vehicle Manufacturers Act https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/news/nhtsa-approves-manufacture-of-low-volume-turn-key-replica-cars/ar-AAUzHy7?ocid=mailsignout

  13. I have used various valve stem tools to keep the stems from receding into the wheel. They are cheap and effective, and available everywhere. With this one, below, you won't need the tubeless stems for your antique car, but the tool will help pull the the tube stem through the hole if it is a tight fit.
  14. Considering the painted bumpers, no doubt covering rust and corrosion, I'd want to inspect the frame, running gear and floors really well. Otherwise, from the pictures, it appears pretty decent.

  16. We always called this model "the car they forgot to take out of the shipping crate".
  17. Don't forget the Ford Model T Piquette Plant in Detroit. TOUR VIDEO: More info: https://journal.classiccars.com/2018/09/22/the-building-of-legend-fords-piquette-avenue-plant/
  18. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- That's when we got excited about the possibility that the Holden "ute" might be imported too. Instead, GM made plans to shut down Pontiac.
  19. This 1933 limo is very reminiscent of the '27 pictured below but is a little too "professional" looking for my tastes. 1927 Buick (Hearse)
  20. I grew up in San Jose CA and was fortunate enough to tour the nearby Ford Plant in 1956. A couple of things have stuck with me over all these years: 1) Unpainted metal panels were welded together on the body assembly line then rolled on jigs through to the next station where noticeable welding flash was ground down and grinder marks as well as body panel seams were leaded over. Workers with molten lead paddled it along the tops of the rear fenders, filling the seams and grind marks, then the next station smoothed the lead before priming and painting. 2) As the partially assembled but painted cars rolled down the final assembly line, an overhead conveyor fed a row of painted wheels down and around a 90 degree curve from a second floor area to the level of the moving car bodies. Amazing to me as a 12 year old kid, the set of green wheels fed right to where the workers installed them on a green car, then a red set was matched perfectly to a red car and so on. Not once did a blue wheel get in the queue for a yellow car or a black one for a grey one! Amazing! 3) I did not see this in person, but there was a local story at the time that when the four door '56 Fairlane Town Victoria pillar-less hardtop sedan was first assembled, some measurements were not correct and the rear doors would not close. Must have gotten fixed - but it is a rare model today. The plant closed in May of 1983 after building 2,660,665 vehicles there. After being vacant a number of years, the property was converted into a shopping mall, one of the 10 largest shopping malls in the USA. San Jose (Milpitas, actually) Ford Plant, c.1956 The "Great Mall of the Bay Area" P.S. All that open land is developed now...
  21. I could buy a good running Harley for the amount of the bid...
  22. Why are you driving a '64 Impala in the snow? Don't they put salt or chemicals on the roads there? Aren't you concerned about the increased accident potential on icy roads? I drive an old beater with a heater in the winter (tires with studs on all four corners). Saves a lot of stress and worry.
