Getting it back together

I have started to put my own Abarth Berlina Corsa replica back together. It was last overhauled/painted in 1992, so it was about time.



Initially the car was stripped on the interior, engine and luggage compartments. After welding up the holes from 10 years of competition it was dispatched to the body shop for a much needed coat of paint.





The first job at hand was to fit the tank… Continue

Vee dreams have been passed-on...for now

At the October 08 event at Hallett, I delivered my vee to a new owner. Due to a divorce (mine, unfortunately) I knew there was no way the vee was just going to sit still for some time to come...so it really needed to go somewhere that it would be used. It is now in the capable hands of the Bigger Hammer folks - they will be getting it race ready for the new owner. I will certainly not be a stranger, however, as long as Corinthians keeps coming to Hallett. And someday, I'm sure I'll be back in a… Continue

Regulation changes, which included a displacement limit of 3.0L, rendered the Jaguar D-Type virtually obsolete for the '58 season. By then the iconic Jaguar had won Le Mans 3 times in a row. The Works team had already w/drawn from active racing at the end of '56, having clinched the important Le Mans race 4 times in the last 6 attempts. In '57 privateer teams like Ecurie Ecosse & Briggs Cunningham continued to race the D-Type, w/the former adding a 3rd victory to the machine's tally. Some… Continue

This year we can toast the Original Pan Am class. Just a few years ago OPA almost disappeared, but it has slowly returned and this year has reached fifteen cars. Wonderful!
