I mounted mine to the right inside of the windshield (birkin/heated) over my sticker: minimal vision obstruction and no problems going through tolls. Have had problems in the past holding it by hand, when upside down it doesn't read. have you done any trial passes through the toll just holding it in prospective placements to see if it reads?

well, either one-or all three of us-are stupid... He's still having trouble getting the new radiators from the factory.... (story of my current life)

I'm feeling rather left out so here goes: Assuming the radiator & nose cone I've been waiting on all year come in time :toetap05: I was planning to attend. However I'm becoming progressively more skeptical every day that i'll have my car back on the road and sorted in time to try my hand at a track day. Worst case i'm a definite maybe spectator

I see clams in on the floor. Was someone looking for a pair recently? -
As one of the younger, and hopefully not dumber, readers: I expect we all perform an individualized risk/reward calculus and proceed accordingly. To be safe you could live in a sealed room drinking vegetable smoothies and easily outlive the rest of us. However, if it's quality and not just quantity that counts each of us must choose where in the safe - danger spectrum to live.

Speaking of cameras and angles director Dundee.. I'm still eagerly awaiting last year's movie :toetap05: I sincerely hope it will be released before Shane

I thought it was relatively painless to transport car parts (ie: remove engine/drivetrain), finish building south of the border and then go through the usual gyrations to get the car legally on the road in your state... If not realistic I feel your pain.

There is a Mazda 2L duratec engine assembly manual floating around the Internet. I believe it has your current and future answers

To clarify - my experience was for a large crate, not car. When I moved my car previously I was not confident in the uship car transport quotes and went elsewhere.
-
Also used uship to coordinate transport of a chassis cross country and was very satisfied with them

You can count me in too, with a token Birkin (once i get my parts out of the grasp of this storm). If there are more unforeseen delays I will try to come and snap a few pictures of Croc in compromising positions. p.

The Regular Summary of Classified Ads of Se7ens Found For Sale

Oglaf and now this: I'm really beginning to worry -
What's a door? - can you be more specific? What car, etc... most of our cars are a conglomeration of pieces from various sources. Parts may come from (overseas) specialty sources like caterham, custom fabricators, or simply your local parts store.

(second that) very useful for balancing ITBs as well as good to keep on hand "just in case". I've used the synchrometer and manometer to balance my ITBs and found the former much easier to use.

FWIW I Bought my car (unassembled) from Dick and found him to be a congenial fellow. I had trouble with one or two miss-matched parts which TMW was quick to exchange once convinced of the situation. Beyond that the car was a reliable joy to drive and only required an ECU re-tune by my local boffin. The new Birkin America contact has also be friendly and I can update the forum once my upgrade parts have arrived. So far there have been morgan-esqe delays on the factory side, but things look promising this week.

I'm guesstimating ~500#, 120"L x 50"w x 30"h

Does anyone have experience shipping a seven sized crate (or other similar object) cross-country? What worked for you, and importantly are there pitfalls or carriers to avoid? thanks

Will it fit into the storker or would necessary modifications change it into a porker?

Call Tom carlin in Colorado I think he's got some of the new wide body frames on hand.

Be careful of frostbite. I learned this (a good way) that wind chill will take a nice evening blat in the fall and freeze your left arm. Always use protection, and beware the salt. cheers p.

This doesn't involve balls but as it relates to fuel what do people think of this? http://bangshift.com/general-news/new-products/must-see-holley-just-changed-fuel-system-game-big-way/

Call Tom Carlin at BirkinDirect in Colorado 970.376.5188. I expect he should know (or be able to find out) p.

Maybe "big Heads" fastenters? I couldn't find anyone selling them in the US and ended up ordering from East Coast Fibreglass in the UK.
