I found this clip of the opening scene of Clint Eastwood's "Play Misty For Me". The first time I saw this film I was still single and it scared the hell out of me. I could never pick up a girl in a bar after seeing this movie without thinking of Evelyn. Jessica Walter plays her role with a scary...

The Can-Am Adventure Continues The previous year, 1972, had been my introduction to world- class racing and it was exciting! The 1973 Can- Am season was probably the high point and effectively the end of this Series, although no one knew it at the time. The Porsche 917/30 of Roger...

Riverside International Raceway 1972 I was on Bob Peckham's crew during the '72 & '73 Can-Am season when we raced at Riverside and Laguna Seca. This was a new experience for me; here we were, among world- class cars and famous drivers with our second- hand McLaren M8C, a volunteer crew, and no...

Moving to a new house has been trying but it has uncovered some things that I did not realize I had. The latest discovery is three GT40 body cross- section profile drawings. These drawings are some FAV copies that John Horsman gave me a few years ago They are not complete but may be useful or...

Edges of sheet metal present sharp edges that can cut skin, chafe wires and fluid lines. I have found an easy way to protect these edges from doing damage and also presenting an attractive appearance. A push-on grommet made by Spring- Fast works perfectly for this application. I'll attach a...

Bonneville should be on any automobile enthusiast's "bucket list". This year it will be held from the 3rd of August to the 9th. Many spectators fly in to Salt Lake City and rent a car to drive to Wendover. The key to success here is to NOT wear a car-themed Tee shirt and tell the agent that you...

While cleaning my shop in preparation for moving into Tucson, I found some spare Thompson Super Ball Bushings. I have discussed using these in a thread on shift linkages. The diameter of a shaft running through the bushings is 3/4". I used Thompson centerless ground Case 60 rod in my car and it...

I was cleaning out my shop prior to moving into town and I found three bolts that I did not use, so I thought that perhaps someone else could use them- probably in the suspension mounting. These are extremely high quality 1/2- 20 UNF tension bolts that bear a Boeing Aircraft part number. The...
