Hey thanks for this. I really appreciate it.
Jnaki, do you know who Petre is that is co-listed with Proffitt in the Corvette?
Wow, amazing info Jnaki! This is great. The color film on your YouTube page, did you film this?
Could this possibly be Clyde Morgan's Vicious Vette? I have managed to find a couple pics of that car. It was very cool!
This is a cool photo. Did you take this?
So, listings of events for just Corvettes are few and far between. At one time, sports cars had divisions from the powerful Modified Sports...
Hi everyone, thank you so much for your replies. I really appreciate it. Lots of good stuff in here to look through! Thanks again

Hi there, re the '64 Galaxie, is this car still available?

One of my passions is motor racing history. I run a motorsport history website and discussion forum called The Roaring Season...
In New Zealand, there were no 1940 Fords, due to the War. Imports stopped in 1939, but that still gives you lots of options.
Nice work! Did you put that together Greg?
Paul, thanks for that!
Time for another update. Magoo's have split the front wishbones, and fabbed up new locator points. The front cross-member where the front spring...
I quite like this look myself: [IMG]
Paul, the diff will be a Banjo. My original closed Banjo won't work, so need to use a newer open Banjo centre section.
Hey you guys, thanks heaps for that.
Wow, they really made a big difference. Does it ride better now?
Man, I LOVE this car, those wheels and the stance are perfect! I'm trying to resist the urge to buy a Galaxie, but this thread isn't helping.
This is the beautiful engine mount Magoo's made from scratch. [IMG]
