Yes 10.00, won’t be going faster than that.

Just picked the car up today, very nice job! Door bar is removable for street use. Painting it is going to be a challenge though…

The Corvette and Cobra were both marketed as Sports cars so that’s answered as far as I’m concerned. What I see as being far murkier is why a COPO is fine but a ‘68 Hemi A body isn’t, I doubt Joe Public could have bought either new.

Good finds Alan. Especially love the Satellites (obvs). If I had the space I’d have the 65 tomorrow. That 63 looks like hard work with crossplies, drum brakes & 12.6 compression! I very much doubt it gets driven anywhere. The kind of people that like to over restore these cars, erasing their hi...

Ah yes, I noticed it had moved into Chez Sharpe!

Doesn’t comply to those rules!

Surprised they allow rim screws, thought these cars had to look totally stock? I notice the Nova has an aftermarket shifter and Cal tracks as well?

They are certainly reproducing stock looking parts in lighter materials for a start and using some form of traction control. No doubt weight distribution is also much better than stock. The aluminium engined Chevies have at least a 100lb front end weight advantage which is going to be very hard to b...

It’s still progress fella, these projects always have hiccups we have to overcome…

I've been trying to find out for years what tricks they are using but nobody is saying anything. They are clearly far from stock that's for sure.

Probably sort it when I’m in the paint shop next week Stu .

After a year of running wheels up low elevens with little more than a lap belt for safety common sense has prevailed. Dropped the car off at Andy Robinsons Today to get a roll bar made and fitted, legal to 10.00 that will do me.

When we fitted the windscreen we used Arbomast in the body to rubber channel and in the glass channel. It makes a mess but it cleans up fine once you’ve finished the job.

My ignition is programmed to crank at 14 degrees and then go to 34 above 500rpm Tig. I’ll carry a spare sensor and have my locked out dizzy with me at the track in case of problems. Doing the utmost to screw as much out of this small block as possible!

Stripping out everything you don’t need leaves you with this. Just needs the top of the shaft slipping on to the lower and welding solid. Add a sheet metal baffle to keep oil from the bearings out of the cap, cover the vacuum pot hole and that’s it. Waiting for the Crank trigger to arrive and then I...
