Best laid plains always seem to have an issue....:rofl:

Hello All, Sorry if you have gotten an e-mail about an iPad or some other thing as I have not sent that out to anyone. Looks like my e-mail account has been compromised by someone in China of all places. I am trying to get it cleared up and hopefully you will not have to suffer the spam attack I have just become an unwilling part of. Martin Keller

Now that is funny.

Most likely due to not being able to put up the soft top but that is just my guess.

I think the clip of the F1's was spead up just a little. If you look closely at the right side just below the fence (49sec to 50sec) you see a person move through the space at what looks like a walking stride but is moving very fast. Just my belief even though I know the F1's are fast the person in that area is moving to fast for the gate.

Tom, So when is this event as I will be back east a couple times in the next couple of months and I might be able to come watch and meet up with the group if my timing is correct.

Mazda, You could always get one of theses and not have to worry about getting stuck in snow or mud. Still would need a top....LOL......:jester: http://dailycar.info/autos/lotus/mustang-car-lotus-super-seven-replica-based-on-95-suzuki-samurai.html

I'll second that.....:jester:.....

Buy a Miata you will not be dissatisfied. Photos of my 1996 Touring Black with Tan Leather 1.8ltr, 5 speed, 28mpg with my lead foot, commuter (68 miles a day) and fun.

Seem like the second poster was giving some sage advice to the first poster. Wonder if she took the advice.

Tony, This would be a good car for anyone wanting a nice 7 that can be use as a street car and having fun. Here is the link: http://www.usa7s.com/vb/showthread.php?t=5952 My belief this 7 would be a good one for anyone.

Just different and I bet it would leak oil like a old radial aircraft engine from the valve guides and rocker covers and fouling plugs like crazy and smoke like a fogger when first started after being run and shut down. Brings back old memories of wiping the oil up from under the C2-A and C-131 I use to fly and how the maintenance crews were always washing the engines with solvent to get the oil off them so they could work on them without getting covered from the dripping oil and hanging a little catch can under the bottom exhaust stacks to catch oil leaking out of the cylinder from being upside down. Nothing like a big old Pratt and Whitney Radial engine for a gray blue smoke startup when cold.

Vogue, I have to agree with you and I feel you car is a good value and will be for someone and it will take time but will sell to the correct person. Kitcat, Very well put and I have to agree.

wkeeling, Nice. Miata powered. My car is MGB powered 1800cc, B transmition, B rear diff modified a lot, B front spindles etc..just because that is what I had for a donor and I did not want to have over 1800cc. Knowing now what I do about Miata's I would use a Miata for a donor if I were to build another one mainly because I have one a Miata and it gets driven more than the other cars I have. There are not a lot of us that have scratch built our cars. I like the photo were the car is sitting on jack stands with no upper A-arms or front spindles as that is probably the only way I did not ever support my car when I was building it. I did balance it on a 2"x 6" x 1/4"wall tube down the center to paint the frame. I bet you remember that first drive just like it was yesterday (referring to the photo of you standing next to your car with the 7 SMILE that we all have). :cooldude:

Very interesting. I knew that the US market is a small portion but I would never have guessed that Caterham production target was for that many cars a year since it has now European Type Approval. I wonder if most of their sales are kits or turnkey vehicles.

Steve I do not know but I do think that the Stalker has as many or more cars here in the USA in the last ten years than Caterham has in the same time frame. Some where I read that Caterham only produces four cars a month and that is for their total production but I cannot find were I read that and it would be interesting to know just how many are produced and how many come to the USA. I am surprised as I would have guess that they have produced about 200 cars/kits over the years they have been in business. I wonder just how many drivable 7's (all variations) there are in the USA. My guess would be 475 to 500 total. I wonder just how many Caterham’s have been produced worldwide also.

wkeeling, Posts some photos when you get the time.

Brunton Auto started with a prototype by car enthusiast, Dennis Brunton, back in 2001. Since then, Stalker's and SuperStalkers(Super Charged V6's) and now Stalker V8's have been rolling out of the modest Bradenton Florida garage. In July of 2010 Brunton's frame master, Scott Minehart, took the reins. With the help of his support team he plans on continued growth for the Brunton Stalker and it's enthusiasts, backed by Brunton's quality and unbeatable value.

Important Data on TSA Airport screening. Who knew??? Year to date statistics on Airport screening from the Department of Homeland Security from the new scanners. Terrorist Plots Discovered = 0 Transvestites = 133 Hernias = 1,485 Hemorrhoid Cases = 3,172 Enlarged Prostates = 8,249 Breast Implants = 59,350 Knee and Hip and Shoulder replacements = 16,521 Natural Blondes = 3 :cooldude: Note this is just a joke but it could also be true.

So well put and the truth. I think eveyone who owens a "7" or any other "Classic Car" will agree.

Hay I can even afford a new Caterham now......but fitting in it will really be difficult….:rofl:

Mondo, Just too STRANGE.....shaking head and laughing....or should we be calling you the Wolfman....and when meeting you wearing some garlic for protection....I know your from Bakersfield but are you sure you never lived in Transavania....:rofl:

That is nuts.

Hi Steve, Your photo gallery is really great and some of the photos look as if they are models and some photos are just outstanding with beautiful cars and great backrounds taken by people that know how to capture that special look with a camera. Needless to say I like your link and have checked it at least twice a day since your first post to just see the new photos that have been posted in you link. Outstanding! Just Outstanding!

That is a good one.....still laughing....
