Guess what... the 1966 GT350 all original parts may not be drivable in this time and age particularly in our roads. This I found out when I test drove my friend's car late last year.
I may be bias but I believe that the performance of my modified '67 convertible will surpass that of the '66 Shelby.
You're right... if one treats such cars as investments, the "concourse way" is mandatory. But if you really plan to put the car in the road, then you have no choice but to modernize.
I guess this is where cars like UniquePerformance's GT500E with updated mechanical parts come in.... handles better, safer and more drivable...Originally Posted by woodfire
How about Aston Martin DB6s and Jaguar XJs? I've never came across one in our roads. They're not necessarily muscle cars, but they're well known sports cars from the past.
Haven't seen an Aston Martin DB6 yet, but I've seen a couple of classic Jaguar XJs in the past few months (a series 1 XJ at QC and a series 2 XJ at Wilson).Originally Posted by pixelparadigm
hindi pala caliper kit ang kailangan ko sa camaro ko, caliper assembly pala ung kailangan ko, kasi may tama na eh.. sn kaya pwd kumuha? and magkano?
Usually we convert it to 2nd generation spindles and calipers. Pero meron akong 1 set ng used Corvette calipers for 16K.
ganun b tlga kamahal ang caliper assembly? ala bng mura? kahit replacement lng..
pagkinonvert kaya magkano aabutin?
pag replacement sir magkano? kasi hnd ko kaya ung 16k eh, tsaka ung 25k..,
yutivo ung sakin, pero disk brake na ang harap ko, pero likod drum..
pero may nilabas ata cla na 4wheel disk brake, ginaya ung sa corvette..
Converted na ang sayo.
Walang Yutivo na front disc.
Yung pareho ng Corvette, COPO yon, Z28 lang ang meron.
Text mo lang ako sa 0917 5167702.
4 piston ba yng caliper mo? or the standard single floating caliper?
