Mike Christeson 2 www.corvetteclubsantabarbara.com NATIONAL CORVETTE MUSEUM MASTER AMBASSADOR Frank LoMonaco CORVETTE NAMED THE ‘MOST AMERICAN’ CAR YOU CAN BUY Corvette has long had the nickname ‘America’s Sports Car’ and according to the annual Kogod Made in America Auto Index, it is also the ‘Most American’ made vehicle. With a top score of 83.5 points, Corvette earned bragging rights by racking up the points within seven criteria in- cluding profit margin; labor; research and development; inventory, capital and other expenses; engine; transmission; and body, chassis and electrical components. The research is conducted by the Center for Automo- tive Research to determine total domestic content. A total of 24 vehicles finished in the top 10 due to several tie scores, and several vehicle variants. Of those, General Mo- tors had a total of seven vehicles in the top 10 including the Chevrolet Volt, Cadillac ATS, Chevrolet Camaro and GMC Acadia. The index ranked a total of 544 vehicles and was created in 2013 by Frank DuBois, associate professor of inter- national business at the Kogod School of Business at American University in Washington, D.C. According to DuBois, “It is likely that no vehicle has been truly 100% American since the Model T. And you could argue that some of those parts were mined or manufactured out of the country.” DuBois said the index provides the best current estimation of domestic content for U.S. sold vehicles. The Criteria: 1. Profit Margin – This was measured based on the location of an automaker’s headquarters. If an automaker’s global headquarters is located in the US, the model receives a 6. If it is not, it receives a 0. The assumption here is that (on av- erage), 6% of a vehicle’s value is profit margin, so if it is a U.S. automaker, the profits remain in the country. 2. Labor – This category considers where the car is assembled. If a model is assembled in the US, it receives a 6. If not, the model receives a 0. We assume that approximately 6% of the vehicle’s value is labor content. 3. Research and Development (R&D) – This category looks at the location of a car’s R&D activities. If the model is a product of a US company, it receives a 6. If it is the product of a foreign company but is assembled in the U.S. it receives a 3; if it is a foreign import it receives a 1. 4. Inventory, Capital and other expenses – If assembly occurs in the US, the model receives an 11; if not, it receives a 0. 5. Engine – If the engine is produced in the US, the model receives a 14; if not it receives a 0. 6. Transmission – If the transmission is produced in the US, the model receives a 7; if not it receives a 0. 7. Body, Chassis, and Electrical Components – 50 % of a vehicle’s score is assigned to this category. The AALA percent- age is divided into two to derive this score.

Tony Megowan, a member of Cor- vette Club Santa Barbara, is leading the group over the upper states of the US to Bowling Green Kentucky—a new route for 2019. Below are recently released details of the trip. If you are interested in joining the Caravan, be sure to regis- ter on the NCM website then let Tony know so he can add you to the mailing list. When 2019 National Corvette Caravan Chairman, Jeff Duda, promoted me to Section Captain for the Southwestern United States, I had three objectives for the 2019 Caravan. The first one was to change the route. The second was to lengthen the trip to seven days. The third was to organize a dinner event at the Airline History Museum in Kansas City, Missouri. I have finally been able to accomplish all three. The Southwest Section has a new route: I-210 East, I-15 North, I-70 East to St. Louis, Missouri, I-55 South to Cape Girardeau Missouri and, from there, we'll follow the 2014 Caravan route to the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green.

  • Avanti: Project Automatic Overdrive by Bill Henderson, AOAI Pennsylvania Member, [email protected]
    Avanti: Project Automatic Overdrive By Bill Henderson, AOAI Pennsylvania Member, [email protected] I hadn’t owned my Avanti very long, when on an early summer morning drive on the Interstate to a club event my wife commented, “It doesn’t seem happy.” I could hardly argue with her. In fact, I was thinking the same thing. It was a hot day. Keeping up with traffic at 75 MPH the car ran smoothly but the engine was screaming like an over‐ revved sewing machine. The tachometer read 3300 RPM, and I kept wishing I had another gear to shift to. Further, by the time we had reached our destination more than an hour later, we were both drenched with sweat, as the footwells and console were radiating heat worthy of a smelting oven. The chrome shifter was so hot that it couldn’t be touched without risking blisters. Even the air coming in the floor vents offered no relief as it was scalding hot, passing as it did through the oven–like cowl and past combination of summer driving, today’s faster the firewall before reaching our feet. “That car highway speeds, the high rear gears, the ancient needs air conditioning,” said my wife with some transmission and the fiberglass floor and firewall annoyance as we joined the party, our backs soaked made me realize that I needed to address the issue if with perspiration.

Installing air I was going to enjoy this car for years to come. conditioning on an R2 is a highly custom proposition, Besides insulating the floor and firewall, I needed to and I knew deep down that no auto air conditioner reduce the engine speed on the road.

    www.sandiegoregion.aaca.com Jack & Lynne Heacock’s 1957 Oldsmobile ‘98 Holiday Coupe March, 2021 Volume 59 Issue 3 Tale of an Oldsmobile by Jack Heacock Jack presented more of this story and more photos on our February Zoom Meeting. In order for the rest of the region to hear this “tale” this version is presented here. While perusing Craigs List early last year (2020), I came across a listing of an original unrestored 1957 Oldsmobile in a 47-year hibernation in the family’s garage in Billings, Montana. To say the least, I was intrigued. I found the owner (living locally in Escondido, CA) to be very pleasant and straightforward in his description. The car had been purchased by his late father as a 1-year-old car that had been traded in by one of the dealership’s salesman. Interestingly, the new owner had traded in his 1953 DeSoto for $695. This owner (whose family I purchased the car from) had maintained excellent records of everything ever done on the car including the original dealer purchase agreement (just under $3,000). In 1973 the car had an engine failure and was parked in the family garage with 66,229 original miles showing (mileage confirmed by aforementioned receipts). The owner is the executor of his parent’s estate and we came to an agreed price and I attempted to secure a transport for delivery of the car from Montana. My attempts were unsuccessful and because there was a short window to get the car from storage, I transported the car myself with help The owner and his son who I from my son in law and grandson.
