Del Rawlins, story & photos. Additional photos: T. Rawlins, M. Walters, K. Morton, J. Quarles As most here will be aware, the itinerant MGA Guru travels the continent in search of MGs to repair. But some may have wondered, where does the Guru go when his own MGA is in need of repair? As it turns out, he goes to my house. The weather was great Wednesday, and the mosquitos not too bad at least for the first part of the day. Barney helicoiled the stripped thread, and then successfully drilled the broken stud, and turned it out with a screw extractor. A quick trip to Ace Hardware yielded 4 new grade 8 bolts, and the suspension was reassembled. Between the suspension repair, replacing some other hardware on both car and trailer, and getting caught Barney arrived in Anchorage a few days ago with his up on fluid changes and chassis grease, Barney and left front shock absorber held on by only 2 of the 4 Elliot were here until early evening and I really bolts; the inboard aft had the threads in the frame enjoyed the visit and also looking over the stripped, and the inboard forward was broken off, gurumobile. with the stub remaining in the hole below the surface.

Tuesday similar shock mounting failure back in the ‘60s that British Sports Cars Alaska, August 1, 2017 Page 4 ended in a suspension collapse and expedient roadside installation of oversize studs. Decades later, I performed major surgery on the frame cross- member to remove the 3/8" thick plate that has the threaded holes, and weld in an undamaged piece sourced from a parts car frame. Some of the pics of that process are on Barney's site for those who may be interested. Editor’s note: Barney returned to Anchorage July 20th for some new tires before hitting the highway south. I tracked him down for a chat and a couple of photos. Bear Paw Festival Photos: Dean Cox, Donna Martin Barney arrived early (at least by my standard) this morning and spent basically the whole day here; shock mounting is fixed, and all of his fluid changes are caught up. He replaced some hardware on his trailer, too. He left at maybe 7:20 this evening. I did get a few pictures for you. I expect to see him again since he had a couple additional spare head gaskets shipped here which have not shown up yet. I thought I heard him say they may head for Homer next. Rick picked up a trophy with his Marcos at the July 14 Bear Paw Car Show.

The British Motor Museum is a recommended stop for any British car enthusiast visiting the birth place of their car. The museum has everything from historic motorsports pieces such as Paddy Hopkirk's Monte Steve’s Lotus Exige Carlo Rally winning 1963 Morris Mini Cooper S and Tony Pond’s Triumph TR7 V8 rally car, to a run-of-the- mill 1960 Austin A40 Farina family run-about and everything in between.

  • 1976 Jaguar Xj-S Group 44
    1976 JAGUAR XJ-S GROUP 44 D E T A I L S Year: 1976 Conguration: LHD Price: SOLD D E S C R I P T I O N 1976 American privateer Bob Tullius and his Group 44 organisation were loyal proponents of British Leyland, having already raced Austin Healeys, MGs and Triumphs before switching to a Jaguar E-Type in 1974. He convinced Jaguar to create a competition version of the company's new V12 engine, which he continued to use well into the 1980s, bringing Jaguar back to Le Mans in the process. Among the most successful Group 44 Jaguars was the XJ-S campaigned during the 1978 season. It had big shoes to ll as Tullius had won the 1977 Category 1 title of the Trans-Am championship from a Porsche 911. The sport's governing body were not too happy with two European cars dominating their championship and for 1978 the regulations were changed to suit the domestic Chevrolet Corvette. Jaguar did their part by supplying a brand new XJ-S body-shell, which had been acid dipped to make it as light as possible. Upon arrival in the Group 44 workshop, the shell was turned into a rolling chassis by Brian Fuerstenau and Lawton Foushee. Following the regulations, they equipped the car with stock suspension adapted to suit the massive Goodyear tyres that were tted on all four corners. Power came from the latest development of the DOHC Jaguar V12, which was run with carburettors as the fuel injection tted on the road cars was unsuitable for use on the track.

  • Vehicle Theft Prevention Quick Reference Guide for the LAW ENFORCEMENT COMMUNITY FOREWORD
    •2011• Vehicle Theft Prevention Quick Reference Guide FOR THE LAW ENFORCEMENT COMMUNITY FOREWORD The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is responsible for establishing and enforcing vehicle antitheft regulations. Motor vehicle theft is a growing problem that results in billions of dollars in losses every year. NHTSA has developed this annual guide to provide the law enforcement community with a concise reference tool to help identify passenger motor vehicles that have been exempted from the parts-marking requirements through model year 2011 and also to assist law enforcement in their prosecution and motor vehicle theft prevention efforts. This new guide provides a quick-reference, comprehensive summary of the vehicles that have been installed with antitheft devices as standard equipment, identifying which vehicles are exempted from the parts-marking requirements, the type of exemption granted (partial or full), and the production year(s) for which the exemption applies. This and future versions of the Vehicle Theft Prevention Quick Reference Guide for the Law Enforcement Community will provide comprehensive information for vehicle lines. The parts-marking requirements have been extended to include: • all passenger cars, • all multipurpose passenger vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating of 6,000 pounds or less, • all light-duty trucks with a gross vehicle weight rating of 6,000 pounds or less determined to be high-theft, and • all low-theft, light-duty trucks with a gross vehicle weight rating of 6,000 pounds or less having a majority of their major parts interchangeable with those of a passenger motor vehicle line subject to the theft prevention standard.
