What the heck Bill - you got your car in your bedroom now?
Some a you guys are gettin' a little over the edge.

cegerer 03-07-2004 06:50 PM

Probably just my monitor, but I could swear there's a bed, a nightstand and a lamp in that photo .......

304065 03-07-2004 06:53 PM

That Jim Newton builds a good car.

bell 03-07-2004 07:43 PM

very nice :)
i love the bed in the first pic.....what a way to sleep :D

Schrup 03-07-2004 10:35 PM

I'd sleep with it. I looks hotter than a popcorn fart. Any chance of getting a peak under the hood? I love what he did to the shifter housing. Car looks very light.

k9handler 03-08-2004 12:23 AM

wow

expat 03-08-2004 12:34 AM

Double Wow! Any more pix Bill?

Series900 03-08-2004 01:56 AM

Newton claims 1700lbs? and a 2.8. Although when asked about the floors he sez steel, bet a magnet does not stick to em :>) see the rivets?.
Parade winner and very fast, Jim builds a nice ride.

adomakin 03-08-2004 02:20 AM

Hubba hubba hubba!

According to Restoration Designs, they ran a limited stamping of an aluminum floor stamping for that car a few others in the industry. Of course, no plans for them to make any more.

Great car!

I want a "Dan Tanna" style pad and pull right into the house! I wouldn't even have to leave the garage for dinner. Nice RSR!

jmz 03-08-2004 07:49 AM

like the old man driving the 550 in the commercial says "holly shmolly"

}{arlequin 03-08-2004 08:01 AM

That is amazing. Check out that shifter housing! Who made those wheels?

TRE Cup 03-08-2004 08:35 AM

Very Nice car- Jim is a multiple PCA Manhaatan award winner from his various restorations- and a capable driver as well

and I'd add a fierce competitor :) It's pretty but it definitely gets driven hard.

I think every household should a 911 in the living room, or next to the bed.
GREAT interior decorator.

Jim Garfield 03-08-2004 10:02 AM

I saw that car at the CVR/PCA swap last fall. The detail work is stunningly well thought out and executed. I think that it had been recently completed - immaculate!

scca_ita 03-08-2004 10:32 AM

Not sure it is a SWB car anymore, Looks like it has alloy trailing arms....

Bill Verburg 03-08-2004 10:55 AM

Yes, that's, Jims personal mount. It is absolutely stunningly turned out. He said his design goal was the absolute minimum weight. Unfortunately those are the only pics I got. :)

I am sure you know this but, for more shots you can check the HSR or the SVRA sites as well as PCA Club Racing.

I saw Jim in Sebring and he has a full customer stable to support for the PCA Club race scene. My guess is that he'll stick to the East coast events for PCA CR and perhaps an occasional RRII ;) I know he mentioned he was going.

Bill,

From the "underneath" engine shot, it looks like there are no pressure fed chain tensioners. Is this true?

Bill Verburg 03-08-2004 11:35 AM

Nope, no suction line either. I suspect that the latter and the oil were removed in defference to the Hotel.
