Dean, has Jeremy still got the hydraulic set-up? If he has it's gotta be worth trying. It worked OK when i had the car. Fitting a Centre Force clutch normally solves heavy pedal problems. I am not convinced you have the correct linkage on that car. It has had so many manual and automatic transmissio...

There is (or was) another Burnt Orange 70 GTX in the UK. I haven't seen it for years. It used to live in Surrey or Kent I believe, - i wonder if it's still around? More recently a friend of mine bought one. I have a picture of part of it in the background near my Challenger taken while Richard Ward ...

Ah but Roel. Your car is a 71 and will almost certainly be a different B5. B5 blue was introduced for the 1969 model year, it continued into 1970 as EB5 (the E for 1969 model year), but the colour is the same. For 1971 the colour was changed slightly (a little darker perhaps) and was renamed GB5 (th...

I'm on shakey ground here, but i am quite sure you have some things wrong. I am sure the build date is 26 May 1972. Check the casting date on the left side of the block near the starter motor, - this will be some months before the build date. Otherwise I am quite sure the build date would be in 10,0...

Tricky that. I doubt you will get a satisfactory re-chrome on any of those items. In fact i suspect what you get back from the chromers will be scrap. - So my advice is continue to use what you have until you can find better replacements. You may find someone like Duncan has some of the parts you ne...

There are other argents used on Chal...

That's right Roger! The quality of the restoration of the Butterscotch 1969? 440 Six Pack Super Bee is awesome, - especially considering the car was in a very bad way when he got it and has taken over four years to complete. Graham Howard went to great lengths to restore the car correctly, - he even...

Favourite car at the Nat's.
Let's have a poll of your favourite car at the Nat's. I'd like to kick off with my vote going to the beautiful red '63 Max Wedge Polara, - look and weep! And I know it's not a Mopar, but what about that immaculately presented Orange & White 55 Chevy? It ran 10.80?s all weekend on (pro) street ty...

Oh yes, - I can already confirm the dates for next year: 29/30/31 July 2005. Put it in your diary, and don't even think of being anywhere else. btw:- We are also negotiating the possibility of a little night racing on Saturday evening next year. If we can do it there will be a time limit of 9.00, - ...
