The video is all a.i. generated.  Amazing creativity going on here.  The plane looks totally rad.  If it could actually fly they should make it as a long range bomber.  The guys are in their sixties minus Mick Mars unfortunately, but they can still rock.  Vince Neil looks like he has lost some weight. But then again that might be the a.i. going on here.

Thanks but no thanks.  Colognes are endocrine disruptors.  Been aware of this fact for some time now.

I had them when I had my FGT, they fit tight, not for my liking. May need a slightly wider one. Very cool looking...I think I still have new ones...

They are a bit snug in one's actual size.  I took a gamble going one size up given that they did not have 9.5.  The size ten worked out just right.  I would say gamble on going a half size bigger with the idea that if they are a bit loose then wear thicker cut of socks. 

I picked up a pair of Piloti driving shoes at their website on sale with a 40 percent discount. They work well with the three pedals.

A beautiful sight to behold!

The more ads I read like this one, the more my writing skills to create horror fiction ascend.

Looks like a good unobtrusive install.

Wow!  I'm going to need to update 6s843 to fit in with the times.  Can't wait for the social credit system to kick in too.

I backdated. Henry hasn't built a "normal" car since Farley took over that I would buy. Harley Davidson put him on their board to help prep HD for the electric age. We all saw how well woke HD is doing when the bikers stayed away from the HD display at Sturgis.
I am working on a new engine - the current one fades out at 70mph. I'm building a B block with dual strombergs, hi compression head and Winfield cam - should be 110-120 hp. I bought this OHV engine - too racy for the street. It ran 133 at El Mirage and holds the class record in Australia for the last 20 years.

I always liked the look of a Stromberg setup.

[I came across a freshly rebuilt trans several years ago that actually came out of a '66 Hertz!]

Thanks everyone!  Since functionality is the key for me I'll probably go with the FelPro.  My car is "leak city" as I'm faced with a stripped oil pan plug hole, leaking rear main seal, and leaky trans due to what I believe to be a bad shifter shaft seal.  It should all be taken care of within a couple of months.  Turns out this will be the perfect time to get my correct HiPo trans finally installed in my car.  I came across a freshly rebuilt trans several years ago that actually came out of a '66 Hertz!

What a great find!  Like finding Inca gold when various rare pieces are found.

Looks like the GTD.  I am content to have what I have already.  Instant window to the past.

Really, it only matters if it matters to you.

True words Roddster.  Good to see you at the Kane County Concours by the way.

Hey deathsled, I noticed in your pic that the radio antenna has been modified on your car. Are you able to share any details? I like it!

Sorry for the late response.  Just noticed your inquiry now.  It is a retractable radio antenna I purchased.  Might have been from NPD.  The originals of course did not retract.  The retractable gives the car a smoother look about it I think.  Total day two car as I have said.  Might do a kill switch there some day.

Congrats. Exciting times await!

The back story. The Feds got involved with aftermarket companies modifying vehicles. Hennessy and Saleen were their main targets. Their main thrust was toward performance changes that affected the emissions. Also they looked at crash worthiness of add on spoilers, hood changes, etc. They went so far as to seize some cars from dealers. The federal law was those types of changes could not be made to a new car before it's first sale to the public (or even after but that was too hard to keep track of). That led to the post title business. You owned the car and could get it modified to your choosing. It was then between you and the feds or state if your changes were legal.
The Hertz cars got changes straight out of the Ford Motorsport catalog (Like the Shelby GT had). Those had been certified by Ford with the EPA so no violation occurred. In reality Hertz probably owned all their cars before they hit Shelby's for the mods. Also Hertz would not allow any uncertified mods which could affect their ability to resell them.

Hertz was smart at one time.  Operative word "was."  See Tesla "investment" for the rest of the story.
