  1. Panamericano, I can't believe that someone has not snatched up your trailer for $2300! What a bargain! My trailer, and I got a bit of a deal from the dealer, cost about $7k with tax/factory delivery and is only a 3500 lbs. single axle. Your trailer would be perfect and frankly almost overkill for a se7enesque car with the tandem axles.
  2. Graham, The Aluma tilt trailer has a very large hydraulic cylinder (dampner/lift) underneath the trailer that articulates with the tilt and allows it to come down gently in both directions. It has a 12.5 degree tilt angle when in the tilt position to the ground.
  3. I watched with great interest, the development of your storage space for your EcoBoost M-Spec Stalker.
  4. Croc, You are a fun ENABLER! Take good care.
  5. Decided to keep this beauty and race it. Thanks for the looks. ANAXIMANDER
  6. TBone, I came to my senses and decided that I could not part with it.
  7. Can't sell it. It took too much work
  8. I do not know how to post a handheld video?
  9. Rear Suspension. As most of you know, M-Spec cars use numerous heim joints for ultimate adjustability.
  10. Corner weighting.
  11. Car on trailer and Aluma Tilt Trailer
  12. Decided that I cannot sell this car.
  13. The car is now ready to race.
  14. Had an almost out of box failure of my oil pressure sensor that will be getting replaced along with my axle c-clips. Hopefully, the Storker will be ready for the cones this coming month! This car has been desperately trying to teach me PATIENCE! I don't know if it is accomplishing all, but some of that task.
  15. Still working on it.
  16. The snap rings may be the culprit. It will be inexpensive to get a pair of OEM Ford c-clips and attempt a reinstall. They initially appeared to lock in but no such luck.
  17. Well, I guess building cars is not for sissies. Was perking along just fine on the dyno today and then took the car for its first couple of miles around the shop that has a circular road. The car ran like the wind. Only problem was that when I got back from the run, the passenger rear axle was leaking some diff fluid from being partially pulled out. Either the circlips that hold the axle into the diff are bad or the axles themselves may be mis-sized? It is back to Scott Minehart shortly to figure out what I hope is the final conundrum. No autox tomorrow <sob>.
  18. I can't wait to see how the car performs with the specific modifications made for autocrossing.
  19. My wife won't even ride in a Stalker except x1 for each one I have owned and that is only around the block
  20. Getting closer to completion.
  21. MV8, I am not sure in the least how my post would have suggested that I think it is OK to not follow through on the sale??? In fact, the winning bidder did in fact state that he/she was planning to pay for the car but was willing to sell the car that was successfully bid on for less that they planned to pay. This is what Gcarbid47 posted as the last comment of the sale: "Hi I purchased while driving, but having second thoughts as 2500 miles from me, fir a bit of a project. If any other bidders are interested let me know. Honoring the sale of course, will accept reasonable even lower offer 😏". I opined that this was a "class act". Please do not misrepresent my words.
  22. MV8, At least the winning bidder is willing to step up to the plate and finish the transaction (class act). Somebody living on the West Coast up near Gig Harbor, WA could likely get a re-purchase price that would allow them to do the necessary fixing up and have a fun car to run around in since there are reportedly only 56 of them in the country.
