Looks like I may get the car back tomorrow. After talking to Bill who suggested checking the axle nuts, Matt followed the procedure on here. He drove the car for 40 minutes today and didn't hear the noise and will take it out again tomorrow morning. If all goes well, I'll pick it up later in the morning, put it in the garage as we take Cindy's MDX to get her mother and niece in Philly and then off to Hershey.

If its not fixed, it's probably a trip out to Bill sometime this summer.

Remember the Chrysler Turbine Car? Do you, like me, think Hagerty is doing as good a job as anyone around producing high quality automotive video content? Got an hour to spare?

This is an amazing documentary about an amazing project that produced the car that was inducted into the National Historic Vehicle Register last year.

When I was a kid Chrysler sent out a letter asking for Chrysler owners to win an opportunity to be a test family for it. I think that was the first contest I ever entered, stamp and all. I remember it well.

I recall seeing one delivered to the engineering dept in college and checking it out . . no rides but cool still. Haggerty is doing what they can to keep interest in old cars but soon the only Ferrari you will be able to get with cost over a million with ICE engine because even they will be forced to go EV.

Watching an episode of Columbo from 1971. Roddy McDowell’s character is driving a beautiful silver Ferrari Daytona, what a car.
