MOST OF THE CONDITION ISSUES WERE ADDRESSED EXCEPT THAT AN EX GIRLFIEND KEYED MOST OF THE PANELS, DIDN'T GET DOWN TO THE FIBERGLASS. WHEN THE BIDDING PASSES $12,500, I'LL INCLUDE PPG PAINT AS FOLLOWS: A GALLON OF BLACK DCC SINGLE STAGE, A GALLON OF DBC BLACK, 2 GALLONS OF CLEAR, CLOSE TO A GALLON OF NCP 271 PRIMER AND AS MUCH HARDENER AND REDUCER TO MIX THEM WITH. I'LL ALSO INCLUDE A QUART OF RESIN TO DO THE GLASS REPAIRS. THE BODY IS GOING TO NEED THE FENDER BONDED ON AND THE GLASS WORK DONE. THERE'S STRESS CRACKS ON THE HOOD AND AROUND THE WHEEL WELLS. THE ENGINE AND TRANNY MOUNTS ARE FABRICATED BUT NEED TO BE WELDED IN. TYPICALLY THERE IS NO ENGINE MOUNT BUT I DIDN'T WANT ALL THE WEIGHT ON THE TRANS MOUNT.
I ESTIMATE THERE'S A DAYS WORTH OF WELDING, 2 DAYS WORTH OF BODY WORK, A DAY'S WORTH OF PAINTING AND A COUPLE OF DAYS TO ASSEMBLE. STARTING FROM THE FRONT, THE CAR HAS CLEAR TURN SIGNALS WITH CHROME TRIM RINGS THAT I TOOK OFF A NYC BUS. THERE'S ALSO YELLOW LIGHTS IN THE HEADLIGHT HOUSING THAT WORK AS FOG LIGHTS BUT ALSO GIVE AN EERIE GLOW WHEN THEY'RE TURNED ON. 5" DROPPED SPINDLES GIVE THIS CAR A GREAT STANCE. THE HANDMADE OVERSIZED GAS TANK IS ALUMINUM AND BAFFLED. THE PLATE FROM BECK SAYS IT'S THE 47TH CAR HE BUILT. IT'S GOT DISC BRAKES ALL AROUND WITH FRONT CROSSDRILLED AND SLOTTED ROTORS AND DOT 5 SILICONE BRAKE FLUID RUN THROUGH A KEYED LINE LOCK AND ADJUSTABLE PROPORTIONATING VALVE TO CHANGE BRAKE BIAS.THE WINDSHIELD WAS HAND CUT WITH JUST THE BOTTOM AND SIDE TRIM USED, I MADE A SPECIAL BRACKET TO HOLD THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD IN AND IT ALSO HANGS THE REAR VIEW MIRROR, SO THE CAR LOOKS EXTREMELY LOW. SHORT THROW SHIFTER, CUSTOM HANDLE. ODOMETER SHOWS UNDER 10,000 MILES, THAT'S WITH THE ORIGINAL ENGINE. MILEAGE ON THE SUBARU IS UNKNOWN BUT THE BUILDER SAYS AROUND 25,000. THE LINK SYSTEM MAKES WIRING IT A BREEZE. THREE REDS FOR POWER AND STARTER, HALF A DOZEN MORE FOR GUAGES AND SENSORS. HIGH PERFORMANCE IGNITERS PULL 250+ HORSEPOWER FROM THE ENGINE. 5 POINT SEAT BELT HARNESSES. BUYER GETS AN EXTRA SET OF SPRING PLATES AND TORSION BARS, THE WHEELS ARE 914 ALUMINUM WITH ALMOST NEW TIRES. THE TUNABLE SUPERTRAPP PLATE MUFFLER, EXTRA VDO DASH GUAGES AND ANYTHING ELSE I CAN FIND FOR THE CAR. THIS CAR WAS AT THE 1985 JAMES DEAN REUNION PARKED NEXT TO THE CAR HE USED TO DRIVE TO HIGH SCHOOL. MEMBERS OF HIS FAMILY HAVE BEEN IN THIS CAR. |

Ferrari LaFerrari supercar to spawn Maserati LaMaserati?
Fri, 22 Mar 2013CAR reports Maserati may benefit from the introduction of Enzo-succeeding Ferrari LaFerrari (shown below). According to unnamed parties, Maserati is keen to create a successor for the MC12 (above) based on the bones of the new Ferrari.
Details are about as scarce as they come, but CAR reckons Maserati has a few options when it comes to building its own supercar. Those include using the suspension, chassis and electrical systems of the Ferrari but with a unique carbon fiber body and without the LaFerrari's hybrid system. The new take on the MC12 could use a detuned version of the 6.3-liter V12 from the LaFerrari or stick a quad-turbo 3.8-liter V8 behind the front seats.
The latter option could see the next MC12 yield up to 900 horsepower, putting it within reach of its cousin as well as hardware like the McLaren P1. Of course, all of this - including our fanciful name in the headline - is just speculation for the time being. CAR says that if the machine makes its way to production, it would could cost well over $1.3 million.
Maserati bringing new sports car concept to Geneva?
Tue, 25 Feb 2014Maserati is in the midst of a major product overhaul. The Quattroporte was recently redone, the Ghibli is a fresh new model and the Levante crossover is still in the pipeline. But what about its two-door line? Surely Maserati hasn't forgotten about those, right?
Not according to the latest gossip, it hasn't. Word has it that in celebration of its centenary this year, the Trident marque is preparing a new sports car concept to unveil at the Geneva Motor Show. Apparently smaller than the aging GranTurismo, the new concept is said to take aim at the Jaguar F-Type - not to mention the Porsche 911.
According to GTSpirit, the concept could pack the Modenese automaker's new twin-turbo V6 or V8 engines, but no matter how many cylinders, it's understood we're likely looking at a front-engine/rear-drive layout and an automatic transmission.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
