They had a GT40 reunion at the vintage races at Watkins Glen about 5 years ago which I had the pleasure of attending. It was quite a sight seeing most of the existing GT40s on the track at the same t

Huh? Let's set theory aside for a minute & think realistically. If you were using an extension and didn't steady it with the other hand, the socket would slip off the bolt/nut before you ever got cl

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Does this really fool people? Does anyone really believe that someone would sell a car simply because they no longer have a garage? You can always find garage space. Whenever I see th

With all the discussion around hammertone paint, it seems an example is needed. Hammertone is the finish used on the gray metal Sears Craftsman tool boxes (not the red cabinets for the garage, but th

If you want a restoration project, that car would be an almost* ideal candidate - solid, complete, no rust, spare parts, and about as close to free as you'll ever find. I'd say buy it before someone

This is absolutely true. You're not going to talk her into an MG if she *really* wants an Alfa. If she loves the car, so what? It'll be *her* car, right? You'd still have your MG, wouldn't you? Woul

Nope. Jaguar engines supposedly come with hardened valve seats from the factory. This is said to be necessary because of the alloy cylinder head. Don't confuse octane boosters with lead additives -

I imagine either DOT 3 or 4 would work - any non-silicone brake fluid will eat the paint off your car if you spill it, and this is probably why he suggests using it to clean combustion chambers.

Actually, no. Grade 8 hardware has 6 lines. They are also commonly plated with yellow cadmium, making them easy to spot (though this isn't a requirement). Unmarked bolts indicate common hardware-gra

BINGO! Jag engines are as strong & reliable as anything - most of the problems people have are due to lack of maintenance and Lucas electrics. Unless you replace all the electrical stuff, you don't
