    1960 Chaparral Mk 1 video at the Vintage Races

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mwvdqo68uE I am one lucky son of a gun. I get to attend the races as part of my job, and don’t have to win, loose or draw. Seriously there were 320 vintage race car entries at Limerock’s 25th annual Labor day 4 day event. Included are many other models that are...

    protouring c3 with solid rear axle, pics so far.

    Here is the progress so far. I acquired this project with the ford 9" rear already in it. It was being setup as a drag car and I have changed direction for a protouring car. Have a heavily built 377 to go in it as well as a world class t-5. Rear end has 3.89 gears, moser axles, detroit...

    Antique John Deere tractor got me thinking about C3 aero stuff.

    My dad had several antique JD tractors (30s and 40s vintage) which he enjoyed as a retirement hobby. The older JD engines didn't have thermostats, but they had a shutter system in front of the radiator so the driver could regulate the airflow into the radiator to set the coolant temps. That got...

    Shrinkage of GF and plastic bumpers ?

    ...seems to appear after the parts have been sprayed in the heated booth.This is especially so for the original type front/rear bumper/ front spoiler parts. Is this common and if so, what does one do to overcome this. Imo, one cannot compensate this in advance. I was thinking of lightly...

    82 front spoiler fit

    I mounted up my front spoiler today. It fits reasonably well, except where it's supposed to meet the wheel arches. I wasn't sure if I should bolt it on and leave it at that or "glue" it on. I glued my bumper on yesterday, so it's never going anywhere but now seeing the crappy fit of the...

    Pace Car front spoiler mod by Bee Jay

    I got tired of getting my body color Pace Car front spoiler painted almost annually, twice this year. I decided to add a splitter to protect the paint and maybe add some performance. I started with 1/4" plywood and came up with this. If this works good, I can use this as a pattern and cut one...

    Front spoiler aero question

    Just looking for some opinions on my new front spoiler. Does something this low really hurt high speed stability? It did lower my radiator temp by 20* (didnt have any type of lip or spoiler on it previously) so I'm thinking that its really bringing alot of air up under the nose. But is that...

    MERLIN is back......

    ...isn’t for everyone. People look at it and say it’s a wide body – when in fact it is a bone stock 74 body with some lowers and an 80’ front spoiler kit. We had no choice but to glass on some fender extensions on the back to be legal. 345’s at the time were the largest street tire you could buy...

    Drifter or pro-touring?

    Just picked up an 85 vette and I want to do some wild modifications to it, but I'm not sure which direction to take. I was thinking about making my car into a drifter with a bunch of carbon fiber goodies, front splitter, spoiler, side skirts, and rear diffuser. Or go the pro-touring direction...

    This from CF...

    Going to the New Jersey Motorsports Park September 17th, want to put a tow hook on the front of the car, the front spoiler is too low for a hook under there, I was thinking making something mounted to the "u piece" that goes from below the lower radiator mount to the the nose of the car (where...

    Another front spoiler question

    Before I get to driving this thing, I need to replace the stock spoiler that bolts to the valance as the original is mashed all to hell. Can someone tell me the differences between the front of a 79 and the front of an 82 please? 82 spoiler halves are nearly $50 each whereas the 79 complete is...

    Cheap wide tires

    i use the sumitomos 275/40/17 for track days because they have a very soft tread rating of 160 and are just as cheap as 15" junk but perform a lot better. the tread goes away fast. 3-4 track days then they're done.

    Cheap wide tires

    Sumitumo? JUNK!!! I had one come apart on me, lost the entire thread surface and it went into the opposing traffic hitting a semi in the front. I went off sideways, lightly clipped the center divider and wrecked the front spoiler.

    Project "Rolling Thunder"

    Long story short, I started building my dream Vette about 6 years ago. Several personal issues put it on the back burner for way too long, but the project is finally back up to speed. I am down to the last month or so of glass work and paint prep so color on the car is only a short time off and...
