Our speedway finally has their schedule up for easy viewing. First event this coming Saturday
"This event is a private racing demonstration and fellowship that is invitation only. Event will run from 3:30 - 9:00 PM"
Is that a fancy name for a Practice Night?

Morning!
I was hoping for a warmer morning. Pretty hard to get back into a routine when its so cold out. -25°c.
I tried, but after a week i cant deal with it. I have to shave.

I found long ago that shaving the beard off in winter not a good idea. Surprising how much insulation that facial hair adds 
If all goes to plan, I will be retired in 6 years or less.
Says 30-60 amps.
Cloudy and overcast but high 40s today.

maybe it was something he ate
Good to hear from ya Chris.
let me find the one I got for the dart that was highly recommended by the folks here and the HAMB forum. it was about the same price and not some random ebay one.
That has to be something like what the electric cars use.

Well this is the kit I have for the dart. Vapir 2 - S Compact Custom Air Conditioning Kit by Restomod Air Its more than doubled in price since I bought it in 2019... damn!
Full moon last night, wind coming in from the south at 9pm, I am looking forward to seeing all this melt away, birds have had a bad time of it, I water and feed them daily, water 3times daily because...you know, freezing temps.
Looking a bit spooky out there last night.
GOOD MORNING everyone, going to pull another stash box out today and get it listed. Victoria needs a rear shock update.

Don't see a compressor?
No compressor. I'm not sure the one I posted comes with one. It's pictured though.

no, just square bar stock and tin. but still heavy carrying it home one handed. other hand was holding Wife's hand so I don't run off the road or tip over.

found a good article on vintage airs site
Tech Topic: Is an Electric Compressor a Good Option for My Hot Rod?
and wow
I'd need a bus alternator...lol
No doubt. I thought as much. Dual 100a. alternators running at full output. My old Poly 318 couldn't keep up. LMAO
By the time you do all that, you'd be better off using a small electric 12VDC motor to drive a normal AC compressor. Be far cheaper. Or just retrofit a factory HVAC system into the car. The 64 Polara had an under dash factory unit. they used the same heater cores. In factor, my 64 polara has it. They're the same for 64 C bodies too. So you can find parts pretty easily.
But But But............................car A/c compressors take 3-10 HP to run. It takes quite a lot of 12 v power to produce enough power to run one.
