Sound is better than the video (halfway through)... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1-p83LywHY This is why I've listed so many things for sale recently. The owner of the car and I agreed that we would trade cars plus cash from me. I've been selling stuff to fun the difference and then to start a "trailer and safety equipment update fund". The net on the transaction was $200. Once I sell some more stuff that I don't need since I can't use it on the new car, this will become a zero dollar transaction (from my wife's perspective, if you know what I mean). This thing is pretty interesting. |

First understand I have no intention of restoring this car. It will be run not shown at car shows - I will be replacing things that look iffy only and then watching it closely. Second, the motor is relatively new with about 6 hours put on it over the last few years since it was installed.
I know that it will not pass race tech yet - all of the safety pieces are expired in addition to the other things. My current plans are to run occasional lapping days and time trials while I save for a trailer and the safety pieces. Alan - that line on the passenger side is some sort of return line for the fuel system. I haven't had a chance to see where it originates in the motor bay but it ends as a small cannister/breather in the trunk by the fuel cell. Since I don't know shoo-diddly about carbed car, I will be taking some time to figure things like this out. Also, the car has tow hooks but they are hidden from view from the outside. The steering column is a basic rod with an anchor point in the cabin and also just-prior to the first u-joint. What feature should I be looking for? I just came in from the garage and made a short video and snapped some pictures: http://community.webshots.com/album/577804652jpMfnL?start=0 I hope to get it on jackstand tomorrow. |
