Thank you very much. I hope you’ve subscribed

To me, the sound is very important so I always try to capture as much as possible

I agree!

My pleasure. Glad you liked it.

Me too, and yes, thankfully we didn’t

No! Absolutely zero problems, even being stuck in the queue for half an hour.

The weather threatened to rain, but never arrived! Loads of cars indeed

There were. Pretty much all tastes catered for

We really really did. I love cars but this was a great day with my son and grandson. Epic day out

They have quite a few different event’s throughout the year. Check them out on their web page for details. Hope you liked my video.

Excellent! I hope you’ve subscribed

Thank you…watch out for more. Better yet, subscribe and you won’t miss any.

Thanks a lot

Pleased to hear it. You HAVE subscribed?

Much appreciated. Check out my other channel ‘shoestring 2’

Than you 👍

The outer bearings aren’t .Not sure about the inner ones as didn’t go that far with mine.

@@shoestringmotoring the inner ain't aswell I replaced them yesterday why I did my halfshaft seal

@@leefisher6226 excellent! That’s good to know

In the UK the gallon is not the same as in the USA, but I agree with you. Sadly, the Caprice is 4000lbs which doesn’t help much 😁

My pleasure. Glad you liked it. Do you have a lot of racing in Maryland? I’ve only been to beech bend in Kentucky and Gainesville and Orlando speed world in Florida

@shoestringmotoring Maryland International Raceway is an IHRA track. They have quite a few races there. The closest NHRA track is a couple of hours away in Virginia. Maple Grove (NHRA) is also close enough for a day trip, but that is in New Jersey. There are at least 6 dragstrips near that are close enough for a day trip.

I’m jealous 😁

The priority was to get the car on the road, but hopefully I’ll sort them out in the future.

Glad you like it 😊

I suppose it does. Never thought about it.

Unfortunately not. It only has a rated 170hp which is pretty dismal. Sounds good though!

Much appreciated. Thank you.

Yes, and that’s true even in the States according to my friend in California

The best 😂

They certainly must be crazy if they do!

I think so, but not sure. Also to fit it you have to take the top part of the steering column out. I’m ok with it at the moment, so I’ll maybe do it later.

That would be a wise choice if you ask me 😁

I like it too. Can’t help you with your smoke test though. It has been a really useful tool for me in what I’ve needed.

👍

It’s a four speed but basically a th350 with overdrive gear.

Thanks very much! Much appreciated

I had a 1963 Ford Galaxie big block V8 and that got about 13-15. Worse sometimes! Worth it though. Wish I still had it!

Other than the issues mentioned above how is the car? the driving comfort etc?

The car drove very well but it’s not enough. Buying one of these is a huge gamble. I’d recommend an mx5 or Mercedes SLK rather than a tigra, or Peugeot 206cc. I cannot stress enough how bad these cars can be. All the problems are VERY common. The SLK can be bought for a similar price and doesn’t have these issues. At the end of the day, it’s your choice, but for me, the chances of you getting one of the good ones, is not at all high. If you do decide to get one, have it professionally checked out. Good luck.

@@shoestringmotoring there is one now its 1.8 cc engine version. No leakeage from the ceiling what so ever. no previous accident and ceiling working just fine... but still. The mercedes slk versions are high cc with a lot of text where i live....

I mean the car I told you I am planning to buy at the end of this month.

@@kereminion6049 that’s what I’m talking about..the TIGRA

That’s a fair comment and you’re pretty much right. Eli definitely changed the mileage of the V8.

And they run 300 thousand miles and more with proper maintenance try that in a British bonnet😂😂😂❤😊

@@frankorobinson1540 very true 👍

If it was a Chevy from sixties or seventies, you’d be right. The difference is EFI and computer controls.

Me too. I,used to,have a regular 2.5 series 3 and it was a great day if it got more than 15mpg!

A lot less. Seriously though, I didn’t buy it for fuel economy. I suppose it gets roughly 20 which isn’t at all bad for a two ton monster.

Ha ha…nice one!

The belt can be from many manufacturers but the important bit is the length. Mine (with a/c) is 1870. If you loook up drive belts find one that length and you’re good to go.
