The Neil Peart Collection, up for sale
keyser replied to iamsuperdan's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Looked more. It is an S. 4047 https://www.goodingco.com/lot/1970-lamborghini-miura-p400-s-1/ pics show no eyebrows overhead looks like wide rear wheels and fenders Vin too early for SV but rare no eyebrows -
What did you see on the road today?

Thanks Rob. That was an ugly Lotus though -

SV’s are wider at rear and don’t have eyebrows. Occasionally S converted to SV. Gearbox in SV used own oil supply. Normal and S shared sump with engine. Chipped gear tooth and hello boat anchor. SV had wider rear wheels. https://www.supercars.net/forum/threads/miura-differences-between-p400-s-and-sv.18284/ Scroll to post 7. fun read from owners. -

Group buy. AC428 is a Frua body on 427 Cobra chassis. Just as quick. Had 428 instead of side oiler though. Miura looks like SV, and Ghibli is 4.9 I think. Nevermind. Closer look it’s a Mistral spider. Here’s a 428. Frua as well. -
1/25 AMT 1963 Chevy II Station Wagon with Trailer

Gas cans and toolbox part of original tool. Teardrop thing is hitch cover. Good 48 pickup fenders too. I think only in 62? Mark knows, or you do. ?? -
Right after you pay generous $ for it. ?

My grammar had one when I’s liddle.

Yessir. The later bumpers for Mk1 helps, but Mk2 was another great looking car. 16V made it a runner too. Corrado reissue would be nice as well.

Decommission a patrol car...

The 74-78 Ford is resin. The 75 Impala 4d is resin, maybe Modelhaus. So is the 68-69 Plymouth 4dr. Early issues of 67-68 Fury had 4 holes in the axle inserts for chassis. Later ones did not. Careful what you strip the resin with, it can be damaged. -

That’s the one. It was in 61-62 Buick wagons and the Nova. 2 different fenders, Mark and I posted about them somewhere in here. Bigger than the MPC Uhaul trailer. 60% bigger. Probably get a scale motorcycle on it. -

People don’t buy sedans. Huge percentage of new car sales are little SUVs. Best selling Toyota and VW are SUVs. People drive poorly, so trucklike vehicles are preferable. I rarely see new work trucks, just hard loaded big pickups with one person in them, or cute utes/bigger SUVs. Ford stopped making sedans because nobody buys them. This will sell. And nobody remembers the Maverick or Comet. 74 month financing very common, so people upside down immediately. Sad, but Ford isn’t in business to lose money. They sell 2.5 F150’s a minute. Big profit in trucks in general. -
Ethanol gives worse mileage. More power but less efficient thermodynamically. Scores injector nozzles too. E85 needs specific tune. I have a swappable tune for my AMG but only 2 stations around me, too far to make it useful so I don’t use the tune. Electric in TX not practical for 2-300 mi trips between cities. But local stuff ok. Poor infrastructure for charging and pathetic grid witnessed by winter failure won’t support lots of electric either. Quick version of Mach E is missile. https://www.motor1.com/news/503933/ford-mach-e-mustang-race/amp/
