It is a little "tricky" with original cars vs "tribute" cars vs period correct vehicles, but a lot has to do with what your intentions are. I have some contacts within the series and am discussing how best to prepare/present a car for this series. Worst case scenario, I will just run with the...

Our intent is to participate in the Historic Trans Am series that runs in the US. I am speaking with a few competitors who currently run this series. I currently run in the Monoposto 70 and BOSS series. The cars I currently run have their FIA papers and/or Passport (one car was actually accepted...

Hi Jari, Great to hear from you. We are currently performing the final assembly on a 1964 Autodynamics Formula Vee for the 50th anniversary celebration. In addition I have some work to perform on a March 783 Formula 3 car. We picked up a 66 Barracuda, 273 4bbl, 4-speed car and it is...

Thanks guys, With the above info, I think we can start to evaluate what we need to do to build a car. Our shop is just out side of Detroit so we have a lot of resources at our disposal. Keep the info coming and when we start the project I will post on this site. Thanks, Chris...

All this is great info. We have a lot of experience with Formula cars and Sports Racers, but not MOPAR vehicles, so every bit of info with regard to transmissions, engines, rear ends, etc. is awesome. We have two projects to go before we can get this one started, but I need to start my...

Thanks, Every bit of info helps. We have a few vintage cars already and am (unfortunately) quite familiar with how rules are interpreted... (only cheating if you're caught takes on a whole new level) With that said, I would like to be as close as possible to the original rules. I will...

Hello All, Our team is considering building a 1966 Plymouth Barracuda to run in the Historic Trans Am Series. From some limited research it appears that 3 cars were built and raced. The "factory" car was run by Team Starfish with Scott Harvey as their driver. In addition to Scott Harvey...

I do not know if this interests anyone, but I have a 23' O'Day sailboat I would like to offer for sale/trade. It is very "user friendly" and great for novice and seasoned veteran. I have it listed on CT Eastern Craigslist for $5000.00 If this is something you would like to know more about...

Here are a few photos. I can send whatever you need. Please let me know what other info I can offer for this VERY RARE vehicle(less than 3 Billion made! and only 1.5 million in this Black exterior/Tan leather interior!) =P~ Here's the deal. I have been put on a Spending freeze by the boss, but...

I will post some photos soon. I am sorry for not doing so, I thought that a Durango photo was unworthy of this site:yawinkle:

I am looking for a running car, able to pass CT inspection with little to no work necessary) It does not have to be a beauty queen, nor perfect, just running and able to be driven and licensed. Here is what I have 1999 Dodge Durango SLT (360 V8, heavy duty towing package, Deluxe interior and CD...

Does anyone know if this would work in a 66 Barracuda? Has anyone put a rollbar/cage in a Barracuda, while retaining the "stock" interior? Chris Robson

Lee definitely knows his stuff and Ted has built his share of engines for me. My cars are maintained and prepped by Adams Racing in Michigan. Most of my engine work is done by Illmor and the Gearboxes by Pratt and Miller' Dan Binks. I have two other cars I am trying to get finished, but with...
