Re: Brakes! We don't need no stinkin brakes
Hi Tom, Look I'm just winding people up. I actually agree with Zac in that there are lots of things that can be done - both stealthly (is that a word) and obvious to improve a 50 year old design. It all comes to personal choice - of course - and what I really like about this forum is that all views ...

Re: Brakes! We don't need no stinkin brakes
Hey, while we're at it, why don't we bagg it - 20" chromies with spinners and Doof Doof sub's? Come on Guy's. It's 7 REBUILDABLE components, and some lines. I know it was a total pain for Tom to get to florida, but trust me I drove my car back and fourth in LA., Manhattan Beach to Hollywood - in tra...

Brakes! We don't need no stinkin brakes
Hi Tom, I have been thinking about the various options you are considering and I wanted to weigh in on the choices. The manual brake system option is something I really strongly suggest avoiding. You will not get enough pressure on that pedal in an emergency situation. Can’t say that directly with e...

Re: Is it time to Sell?
I know this thread has been dead for about a year, but as it started in 2007 - and we all know what happened since then - did anyone sell or wish they did? I didn't, but I have a box of parts at the moment - not a car - so it was not really a viable option in my case. What about getting back in to a...

Re: The Road Trip to Cavallino Begins!
Ahhgh Tom, I'm sitting miles away wishing that I was there and we could jack up the car and sort this out. Have had both on my car, fortunatly not at the same time, so can say that it is about a day with the right tools (flare wrench's - spacers - punch kit for the generic gasket stuff from Pep boys...

Photos needed of series 2 headlight surround
Hello, Grandma is closer than ever to being painted, however a question came up recently that I could not find details of in my archives. Specifically, can someone provide photos of a Series II, GTE, headlight surrounds with the trim ring removed. For the rookies, Series II cars have the foglights i...

Chuck McCreight passes after battle with cancer
Chuck McCreight passed away yesterday after a 2 year battle with a Brain Tumor. Many of us will remember that he was on this board as 67GTC, and owned a 330GTC for many years. A frequent participant in the Monterey Weeklong events, Chuck always managed to be just a little more outrageous than those ...

Re: Monterey 2009
I think the car thing on next weekend in Monterey is overrated. We will be in the pub - the crown and anchor in downtown.

Re: The Quail
Like Tom Wilson I'm looking for a good soul to part with three tickets if at all possible. Cash, of course.
Anyone- anyone?
