[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/haha.gif[/img] damn, you are still a funny guy. while you were on sabbatical my son got old and bought a 69 Nova from the CA desert and had it shipped to NY. There's a picture around here somewhere. I gave him my tame Chevelle motor and then found an LT1 for myself. Two beaters, no spotlights. |
Re: Need Member Rides for spotlight !!!!
Seems like my kids are catching up to me too ! Maybe people could send in pictures of their skateboards since it appears no one has a car anymore

[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img] I knew we had a skateboard around here somewhere. It started life as a trick slalom ski I used 30 years ago.

Thanks Tom! |
Re: Need Member Rides for spotlight !!!!
I'd send my car for consideration but I'm not sure it's worthy considering the caliber of car owned by the members here.
Let me know if you're really desperate. |
Re: Need Member Rides for spotlight !!!!
I'll get more detailed pics after I have a chance to go through my new car. I purchased this 62 Corvette at the Bloomington Gold Corvette show this weekend. This is a 327/340h.p. 4 speed car. Radio delete, hardtop only, and original matching numbers. The car is unrestored with mostly original paint.

Re: Need Member Rides for spotlight
Hey moderators. Looks like we are getting some interesting Members Rides inputs lately. I think it makes sense to have those interested in submitting to send their members rides stories and pix to Bruce (moderator) so that he can put them in a standardized format and title them so we can find them again later on.
Thanks! |

Re: Need Member Rides for spotlight
----Chandler,,,There are a few (maybe more than a few) loose wingnuts on this site. As much attention as your fine 64 will attract,,,be ready for a few more wise cracks. As for me, I just want to know a bit more about that motors internals as it looks as if it can definetly haul the bacon!!!......Bill S

Re: Need Member Rides for spotlight
Thanks.
The block is a 10.2 deck Merlin. 4.5 bore and 4.25 stroke. Flat top JE pistons on 6.800 rods. Cam is a custom roller designed by Kirk Jager and Chris Straub and ground at Bullet, .720 lift. And I promise the following is true,( I get accused of running painted aluminum heads..lol ), the heads are stock LS6 cast iron. The intake is a Brodix HVH with a Pro Systems 1100 Dominator. The reason I point this out about the heads is because the motor made 704 h.p. on pump gas. We tricked the heads into thinking the exhaust flow is better than it really is, using the cam profile. The first time I had the motor together it made 670 h.p., but I had a ring problem and took it back down. By changing the rings and rehoning the block, it picked up 34 h.p. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: olredalert</div><div class="ubbcode-body">----Chandler,,,There are a few (maybe more than a few) loose wingnuts on this site.

Here is an old interior shot. Since this picture was taken, I've restored and installed a Hurst Ram Rod shifter.

Rear view. I removed the trim piece in the middle of the trunk and added the tailight delete plates.

What has been done to the tranny behind that beast? Wow. 740hp [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/3gears.gif[/img] |
Re: Need Member Rides for spotlight
It's a Jerico 4-speed. They have no syncronizers, etc, like a standard production transmission and the gears are massive. It's a road race version from a Cup car. Makes a rock crusher sound like a M-20. I don't know if I can load a video or not, but my son recorded a few seconds of us pulling onto the interstate with a cell phone. Let me see if it will load, you can hear the transmission.

Re: Need Member Rides for spotlight
I tried to upload the video. The video is a MVI ?
It wouldn't accept it. I'm not very computer savvy. Does anyone know how it can be uploaded? Thanks |
Re: Need Member Rides for spotlight
I love the idea behind the car! You could say, we share some of the same philosophy......
