Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Ferrari Digest, Vol 99, Issue 67

Ah, the early E-type Jags. I owned a couple in the 60s; a 63' & a 65'. Back 

then they were known as the "Instant Poverty Car!"  How true!!!

Deep, check out "Hemmings Sports & Exoric Car" magazine. Its now the only 

car rag that I read. It may not be of interest to those who enjoy only the 

latest and greatest automotive offerings, but for us older car fans, its 

outstanding.?

I agree with you about Hemmings Sports & Exotics.

Below are a couple of letters I sent in and were published.

Your article about Bugeyes, brought back memories, most good a couple bad.

The 59 Bugeye we drove to Las Vegas in 1967 to get married (still 

married).

The middle night drives in
Los Angles to teach my wife to drive a manual transmission. I put a Judson
supercharger on it, now it could not only corner but keep up with traffic
on the freeway.
I will never forget the introduction to California's keep up with flow of
traffic, we were on the harbor freeway doing the speed limit when a pair
motorcycle

highway patrol officers slowed down beside us and with hand jesters took 

us

to 15mph over the posted limit and then pulled away.

The bad, I was in a catch 22, in California you had to have insurance, to
get insurance you had to have valid California drivers license.

On the way to take the drivers license I was rear ended broke taillight,
replaced the light, when the drivers test was over on the way back to the
testing station the
fuel pump died.

I walked to the dealer bought a pump borrowed tools and replaced the pump.

Compared to the 1st trip the 2nd was uneventful except the tester giving 

me

a hard time

having not passed the 1st time at the beginning of the ride, but by the 

end

I was praised by the tester, it did not hurt that I asked if it would be 

ok

to remove
a fallen branch from the street, when given the ok, without leaving the
Bugeye I drove beside it , reached down and drug it the curb.

I could not find an email address for the article about Jaguar ads.

I have been a long time admirer of E-type Jaguars.

I seem to remeber a Jaguar ad that said ' If you think you can buy a 

Jaguar

and forget it, forget it'.  It was a full page ad showing the owner under
the hood, out in the open air (outside).

I had a friend that dated a Dr.'s daughter. The Dr had an E-type and sold

it to my friend, who promptly broke off the relationship with the 

daughter.

Then 2 weeks later showed up with a Mini Cooper S.

This was over 46 years so my memory so it might not been a S.

A story from school days, I had a friend that turned a snake into a car.
He cought a blue racer snake, he the traded it for a washer that did not

work, he repaired the washer and traded it for a car.  That was 53 yrs 

ago.

Thanks, for a great magazine.

Also I have a complete set of Forza.

My wife taking into my health told me 'we should go this year since I am

So we are going.

Hope to see some of you there.

Brian - when you said, "our nation's safety and security" is like when
the progressives/liberals/socialists want to add more laws to the Nanny
state and use the phrases "it's for the children" (makes me want to
throw up) or worse, "if it saves only one life".  2 of the most
ridiculous reasons to pass a law ever used.

My opinion of enclosed F1 cockpits - it would not be practical and could
interfer with the ability of the drivers to get out of a car in a
hurry.  I forget the time they must execute a egress but it's less than
10 sec IIRC .  Might be 5 or 6 sec.

Anyway,...
Larry

I think they plan to use the black boxes' built in GPS to monitor miles
driven  - I believe they already have that ability and might have the
ability to wirelessly transfer the data.  I'm pretty sure insurance
companies and lawyers can get that data to use in litigation and to
justify rate increases.

Our freedoms are being reduced at every turn.

    Did you see where Governor Moonbeam signed the law starting the

    California roads?   And how are they going to track that??  Is
    there no place left where sanity prevails?  I need a time machine.

        Excellent suggestion Rick - the cars already HAVE a button for
        that - it's
        called PIT LANE.  Of course the person risks creating a Jim
        Hall career
        ending wreck when he hit the rear of Lothar Motschenbacher's
        Lola at the
        exit of turn one at the last Stardust GP CanAm. Nov 1968.  I
        looked for a
        picture of Hall flying upside down but couldn't find one.  His
        car landed
        upside down and broke in half.  Broke both of Hall's legs just
        below the
        knee I believe.
