  1. Paul, Copied this his from the yahoo Stalker forum: Never quite completed the mods to #116 before it was time to leave for Ambush. New top is slightly lower and a bit more narrow. New style T-tops and windows leak much less. Wind wings reduce wind into the cockpit tremendously. Dual fuel tanks worked as planned/hoped. Photos on Killboy.com located on 10/01/15 page 4, line 3. Also photos on 129photos.com 10/01/15 page 18. I am now using rear fenders and they have Vortex Generators to reduce rear end lift in the 180-200 mph speed runs. Secondly, they give rear fender support as the front half of the fender provides a seat to ease entry and exit. And thirdly, the Vortex generators provide a nice hand hold when it is necessary to move the car while inside the shop. The first day out we covered 533 miles to Dublin, Ga. and reached Ambush on the second day for a total of 789 miles. After leaving Ambush we went spent 2 days to reach Shelby,Mich. with a distance of 1,092 miles. After several days visiting her parents we headed home. Three days were spent to cover the 1651 miles back home and we pulled in to Naples just after dark last night. Total distance traveled was 3532 miles in 7 traveling days Altogether it was a great jaunt and happily Cheryl never complained when it did rain and agrees to do it again sometime. Jimmydz116
  2. Jimmy Dorsey's Stalker. Jimmy and his daughter did 48 states in 37 days (I think) in that car.
  3. LOL, Dave, you know that ain't gonna happen. :smilielol5::jester:
  4. Don't have one, but LOL, battery bunny…gotta love it.
  5. Well, if the Mightiest of Mikes isn't going to post us a link, then I will. Mike, 11's at your altitude are just around the corner. :Chevy_anim: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmETSzvr5AY
  6. No hoisting this baby up into a tree; where it sits is where it stays...for now, anyway. With my being in Houston (and everywhere else along-in-the Gulf, so it seems) with my new job, they (the kids) have taken possession of the man cave for the time being. :willy_nilly: At the very least, I did do a little work on the chassis the last time I was home.
  7. So...what do you do with the $500 crate after you unpack the chassis?
  8. No! Not at all...but now that you mention it...maybe. :jester:
  9. Way to go, Mike! Good to see you at it! :cheers:
  10. Ever wonder why it is that none of us fat a$$, over weight Storker owners NEVER join in on these minimal subjects? We're big, okay?...There, you happy now? Bunch'a frick'n light weights. :jester:
  11. Colin49, Welcome aboard. You've raised the bar on the forum with the Fejer...not many (any?) here. You may be taking lead on this one. :cheers:
  12. Sounds like a Stroker owner.
  13. Keep it as is...I like a bit of 'harmless' humor with my morning coffee. Besides, if I like the car and want it, I'll buy it, regardless of your Dudee-ish tomfoolery. :jester:
  14. Z, Kudos all around! Sounds like you are having a well-deserved blast with the Stalker. X . . . :cheers:
  15. Looking good, Dale. :cheers:
  16. . . . . . :rofl: Doctors (A) The number of physicians in the U.S.: 700,000. (B) Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year: 120,000. © Accidental deaths per physician: 0.171 Statistics courtesy of U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services. And now . . . . . Guns (A) The number of gun owners in the U.S.: 80,000,000. (B) The number of accidental gun deaths per year: 1,500. © The number of accidental deaths per gun owner: .0000188 Statistics courtesy of FBI Statistically, it seems, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners. Not everyone owns a gun, but almost everyone has a doctor. So, you are over 9,000 times more likely to be killed by a doctor than by a gun owner. Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We must ban doctors before this gets completely out of hand! Out of concern for the public interest, statistics on lawyers have been withheld for fear the shock would cause widespread panic among the population, causing people to seek medical attention!
  17. The 'mobile' version of Croc's Garage Mahal. :jester:
  18. This is something that's easliy done at home in your own garage/driveway. I've done it several times over the years to center the steering wheel. However, you may want to build a simple, yet very useful, device such as this to ensure you maintain your current toe setting: http://www471.pair.com/stalkerv/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=20051 (see toe-in jig, second row of photos)
  19. Well...you didn't think I'd see this, did you...bucko? :toetap05: Hey...fat cars matter! :jester:
  20. Yep, it does.....sorry Skip :jester: it's the great pumpkin, charlie brown!
  21. Skip, This smile in this picture is priceless...you look like a ten year old with a new go kart. :driving:
  22. I'm not sure why...just can't put a finger on it...but that seat design makes my back hurt. :jester:
  23. . . . . . :smilielol5:
  24. I think old yeller is jealous...maybe dumping something in the radiator at night while you're asleep. :jester:
  25. Yep. :iagree:
