Older Restoration, All Steel, No Modifications, Perfect Mechanical Condition. on 2040-cars
Berkeley, California, United States
If you are looking for a car to have fun with, this is it. It was restored from 1976 to 1978 with over $20,000.00 spent. We have all the reciepts and a photo album with even the Barn Find photos. We have owned the car for about 6 years. We have shown this car at the Marin, Palo Alto and Hillsborough Concours. It was awarded Best Vintage at the Pacific Grove Concours Rally 2008 and best in class at various car shows in 2009, 2011 and 2013. Because of it's unmodified condition she almost always wins a trophy when entered in the stock classes of those years. It is in perfect mechanical shape and needs nothing to drive and enjoy. The car is a joy to drive and really turns heads. It is registered with the correct year plates, comes with tools and some parts. It does have some wear and tear on the body as she is no trailer Queen. I have driven her around town quite a bit and my Grandhildren love riding in her. I have photo documented the paint issues. It does have a recent LeBaron Interior, Parade Boot and Rebuilt Speedometer. If you are looking for a car to drive, have fun with and not worry about getting a scratch, this is it. We have had our fun with it, bought an MG-TD and now it's time for someone else to enjoy her. Any questions feel free to call or e-mail. Ken, 510-414-4953, gogiantks@aol.com

The U-2 spy plane needs high-performance cars to help land
Thu, Oct 15 2015Typically, aircraft deploy their landing gear from three main points. Most military aircraft, for example, deploy two gears at the back and one forward, like a tricycle. Some civilian aircraft flip the layout, with two in front and one in back - tail-draggers. The U-2 Dragon Lady is wildly different than any of these. With a 103-foot wingspan but a body that's just 63-feet long, the layout of the U-2 makes a traditional landing setup infeasible. Instead, the U-2 utilizes a pair of wheels, one up front and one in back. With such a bizarre layout, landings are so tough that since the U-2's earliest flights at Area 51, the US Air Force has used high-performance chase cars to guide the pilot down safely. The landing process isn't over there, though. As this video from Sploid shows, balancing out the aircraft to fit the detachable "pogos" – think training wheels for spy planes – is a comical procedure requiring a number of airman using their full body weight to even out the U-2. This video also recaps some of the great vehicles that have served as chase vehicles for this legendary spy plane. They include Chevrolet El Caminos, and the Fox-body Ford Mustangs so favored by the California Highway Patrol. For the last several years, the USAF has utilized products from General Motors, using fourth-generation Chevy Camaros, before switching over to the Pontiac GTO and most recently, the awesome Pontiac G8. It's fair to say that if you're a gearhead in the Air Force, this is the job you want. Check out the video, embedded up top.

Project Ugly Horse: Part V
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The Slippery Slope
I've had a healthy appreciation for cars that stop since one truly unfortunate incident with a runaway 1971 Lincoln Continental.
It's funny how quickly a party can turn from, "We're all having blast" to "What happened to the front of the house, and how many stitches do you think this is going to take?" Standing in a Mustang salvage shop in Kodak, Tennessee, I couldn't help but feel I had strayed into the latter territory with Ugly Horse. There was a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 plucked from a rear-ended Cobra sitting off to my left. The shelves were lined with second-hand Roush and SVT components galore, but I couldn't stop staring at a set of rotors with the approximate diameter of my chest.
