Thanks for the offer. I finally found them in interior switches (so I am losing my mind); the search function wasn't going there though. I may just spring for new ones, as disassembling and...

The 911 and Vette are obviously two different animals, with different cost, design philosophies, production quantities, etc. You can say that the Corvette has come a LONG way in the handling area,...

I bet they change the gearbox in Shumi's car! It looks like that's what took out Barrichello, and could be a weak link for now. I was waiting for it to go tango uniform like Barrichello's.

Wow! An exciting F1 race for a change :p ! It looks like Ferrari is back, if they have the reliability. Did you hear the bit about the Honda's making 955 HP!? Not bad for normally-aspirated 3.0...

I think Bernie is right, it's over 30 inches. Where are you supporting the car? I used jackstands supporting under the rear torsion bar covers, with about 8" of wood blocks to add height for the...

Paul,

That IS a dilemma. My little brother lives in NYC, and hasn't ever had a car there. Not having a car is unimagineable to me!

Sounds like he needs a '69 Z/28, such as this one. The RS option with the covered headlights was really cool. Penske and Mark Donahue destroyed the Trans-Am fields with these in the late '60s, and...

I haven't used that one, but I considered something like it for engine/transaxle removal. With a max of 16", it would be several inches too low to support the assy while the car is on jacks though. ...
