Easter in late April has upset the typical event dates at the park. We’re working on some factors to settle out and the get the best possible available.

Tough to compare cars with options not available in other years. Like a 68 383 GTS convertible to a 70 318 Duster. The original question said body line so I would take that as a /6 2dr body style that was available in every body line. Duster/Demons are fastback (VL29 & LL29) versions of...

About the same. The fast ratio (1-2” longer) pitman will hit factory headpipes and most all headers in an a-body. The tti shorty headers might fit. Better off getting a 20:1 or 16:1 manual box. Fast Ratio pitman and idler is $100 or so more than stock ones. 16:1 new steering boxes are $300...

N97 is a complicated deal. Applies to particular models, body styles, motors, and each year treated in its own. I don’t believe any 69-71 A-bodies had N97 nor any 340 cars.

Ok. There’s nothing number wise or stamping wise to prove this was a 340 car at this point This very well could have been a 273-2bbl manual transmission floor shift convertible. Were all 68 floor shift barracuda’s 4-speeds? Were all manual transmission/6 barracudas column shift 3 speeds...

Whoa !! that would change everything. Sometimes you can see that stamping better from bottom side then inverse the picture.

Shame this cars' VIN info is all missing. The trunk lip stamp shows a 340 Formula S because the motor code, year, and assembly plant. Because the lip paint is original and goes to the unique convertible parts this was a convertible. A lot of explaining. And once restored paint will be gone...

This theft earlier this year in SoCal does not list a 340 convertible. But lists 68 convertibles. This conv has pink going back to 2005. So doesn’t seem related Stolen A-Bodies From CA High Desert

Yes title has wrong vin BH27P8B198220 That tells me this title was made up (2005?) after the dash VIN was missing and there was nothing in system for it nor person that took it to DMV had any past paperwork on it. Like no pink slip. I don’t see dual exhaust cutouts in the rear valance. Would...

How does it steer at low speeds. Do you do much low speed maneuvering; parking lots, driveway, etc? It's a lot of what the driver is used to and finds acceptable. 235 and wider up front will start being noticeable difference. Guy in club has a 4spd 69 Roadrunner with 16:1 and 235/60/15's up...

Not really. But if you use that for manual steering you might want to reduce those caster numbers depending on your front tire width and if the manual steering ratio is 20:1 or 16:1. Caster is not as performance enhancing as Camber then Toe. Caster can induce some camber in cornering. The...

@PROSTOCKTOM Try: Open up no/little prep on weekday nights for 1/8 mile. Brings in 18-30 year olds with street cars. They are more likely to buy track food and drinks than older crowd too. Street cars don’t oil down strip and they are less picky than older guys with dedicated street cars. 1/8mi...

I had to look it up first time you posted just to make sure.

https://www.hemmings.com/stories/its-official-the-irwindale-speedway-will-close-after-2024-racing-season/ The Irwindale Speedway was in danger of closing several times, including an occurrence in 2012, when parent company Irwindale Speedway LLC filed bankruptcy. The track re-emerged as the...

You had it right first. Lessor The owner of the asset or property that is being leased out. The lessor grants the lessee the right to use the asset or property in exchange for regular payments. Lessee The party that rents or leases the asset or property from the lessor. The lessee is granted...

The U.S. buys so much overseas goods through the LA Port, that there’s a huge demand for warehousing and trucking support. There’s a boom on Ontario/Fontana area warehouse projects. But there are so many that many are on hold while electric infrastructure is built to serve new load. Irwindale...

like 33Imp said, this is an unique city set up to serve industry. Residents, not so much. Also, there is a huge gravel pit cliff about 10-20ft from edge of drag strip. The gravel pit that shares the south property line is as large as Irwindale speedway.

My guess is the owners either want to put a trucking center there; similar to what’s next door (part of facility is currently subleted to neighbor). OR warehousing like what they just built across the street.

It’s profitable for leasee with the rent. The circle track itself is half or less of square footage Parking, return road, and drag strip co-used by other non roundy round events ($$$) Circle track itself used for parking for large events ($$$) Also circle track is seen in tons of TV...

Are you talking about Kern raceway? That’s a naming rights sponsorship deal. Current leasee will/can move any hardware above ground they want to their new property at Kern. Grandstands unbolt.

$300k payment on $50 mil Does that drag strip facility bring in over $300k/month just to make mortgage? That’s $10K/day just to cover that.

Current track land owner wants to build something else. Went for public sale and sold since track founder/builder left lease in 2015-ish. Current track renter makes/made enough money to buy (and justify buying) Kern raceway.

Erasable with the friction of the eraser head. but no ink lifted. No mess like the old Eraser-Mate pens. FriXion® Ball Clicker Retractable Erasable Gel Ink Pen

There are owners out there have that notion conjured up in their heads. Check total ignition timing. Get it to something safe. Then put 93 in it. And then drive it and listen really close. If it got loud exhaust might be tough.

We will not get a date until early November from the LA parks depts
