Holy Grail of rare parts? a Flux Capacitor for an '82 DeLorean!
I got my copy today... it was poking out of the mailbox by my door when I got home. Needless to say, I dropped everything in my hands right inside...
What's REALLY funny, is that in another 20 years, people will be laughing at the "traditional" cars... just like the 80's cars now. Times change,...
congrats!
Sorry to hear of your loss, James. May the pain of her passing be soon replaced by great memories of cherished times. We're all here for you,...
I thought so... it's just a dream, for now anyway. When I saw this pic, it almost took my breath away. Whoever built it read my mind! Every now...
Thanks!
awesome project... I just found this one... [IMG]
cool pics... what the hell kind of engine is in the truck with the "dry 5" license plate? looks like a Wankel 303 on roids!
This car is amazing, and at the risk of sounding like a pre-teen girl... I stand in awe of your talents. Absolutely incredible...
350 and 327s share the same 4.000" bore... 350's had a 3.48" stroke, while the 327's had a 3.25" stroke. The blocks are basically the same, it's...

Where are you coming to in PA? Winters is in York, and Frankland is in Saxonburg, near Pittsburgh... either shop could fix whatever you need. Take...

The only difference that the angle makes is on roll resistance during cornering... you'll be fine.
Yup. Ran into these issues with our dirt car. Ran a BH with the larger hole in a pinch, and it ended with the driver at the hospital getting...
beautiful... that's all I can say. unreal. I wish I had that kind of talent and time...
some folks just need to relax... what makes 64 a magic number?
nothing like celebrating before it's over... fist pumped himself right into the turn 4 wall!
Why not just fill in the holes and repaint?
best possible answer!
do you get a title or a deed with a car like that?
