Last year we started the "Cruise Season" with a Tech session at Brian's shop. It was interesting and a good day. Don't forget him for your PPI needs as well, he does a good job with a detailed study either buying or selling.

Shell now makes a specific blend of gas, just for my Ferrari.


I'm just glad I did not buy a 355, 360 or worse yet, a 430.

Is there a way to upload bitmap photos, or a way to convert them to something that can be used?

I think that pic is one of a series from an original Ebay ad. Somebody thought the cheese cake shots would help sell the car.


Mark...
308's of 76 and 77 are the hot models, due to low smog equip, cams, compression, no cats and 4 Weber carbs. Early 76 cars are lightweight fiberglass and they have a cult following of their own. Pricey too. In 78-9 smog restrictions began to hurt performance, and by 80 they had to inject the 2 valve motor for compliance. These are the lowest perf (less desireable in some eyes) 308s. Some nice features came along during the low-po years, better interior touches and 16" wheels for example.
In 83 thru 85 the 308 regained it's lost power by introducing 4 valve heads. The 85 is considered a prize as it has the Quattrovalve heads, good injection (driveability), best rustproofing, best cooling system, good interior, 16" wheels.

So, the QV is desired by many as the user friendly model, the early carb cars by those of us who like the untamed nature of a raw sportscar.

I played around with the same idea Mark. My "ink blot" ended up looking like a 911 on the inside. Not necessarily a bad thing, but didn't want to definitely point to any one car since their is such a diverse group of them in the club.

I also had another silhouette layout that looked alot like a lambo, and I knew that would not work... only in Dan's eyes.

If your Lamborghini outline favored a Gallardo, Jalpa, Silhouette, Muira, Espada, 350GT, 400GT or Countach, that would work.


Side note, a Dr. in my old neighborhood created the logo for a club he was in. They used black lettering on black hats. Only the thread texture was perceivable. Fittingly, it was for their Edsel club!

Thanks for that. Getting Tires via Tire Rack and was just ready to look for a safe place to have them mounted. Like the N2 option as well.

Looks almost exactly like a 59 Corvette.













Just kidding, I do like the second one.
