Just doing a reliability check over, I've changed the oil, and cleaned out a lot of crap already.

Since I haven't really driven it for 4 or 5 months, it makes me nervous to just drive it on over to PA since the electrical gremlins have surfaced. I guess you just better have your trailer ready :lol: . I think it will be ok... I could probably come friday night again if my girlfriend doesn't kill me first. :roll:

I think I'm going to Luke's on the 15th I think for the auto-x. So I guess my car will be set up for the one the 29th.

The issue is that the Shelby's seem to be getting harder and harder to find. And certainly withing the "community" impossible to wrench out of folks hands! :D

I do know of a set of shelbys around, but the guy likes the looks of them. Anyone got a set of Ronal "minilites" I can buy and swap the guy with?


Mike, I do. Never gonna run them as I have so many shelbys now. I can dig them out of storage and we can work something out.


Those Team Dynamics rally wheels look suspiciously similar to a set of rims I got with the Works car- 6.5 or 7 inches wide and pretty light. Ah, here's a photo of Stromberg running those rims:

Yo, James! When are you gonna put the Swedish piggy bank back on the (dirt) road man?

In the meantime, if you've got so many Shelbys, why don't we talk about some of them gettn' bolted to my new money-pit?! :)
