Hi guys. It's been a loooooong time since I last logged onto the forum but when I found that video on youtube about the Cobra Jet collection today I knew I needed to share that with you guys. (in the CJ section) It just so happens that I took out the Mustang today and washed it for the first...

I just stumbled over this on youtube. I dunno if it's already been posted as this is my first visit on here in a long time.... Guy has a massive collection of 71 cobra Jets and super cobra jets and they find a pristine survivor which is shown in great detail. Definitely worth seing!

A few of you might know that I recently purchased a vintage Fiat 500 and as I have more cars than room in the garage the question arose on how to store them over the winter.  Well, turn out that having a tiny little car like a Fiat 500 has a plus side.  The Cinquecento is the winner here...

So today is December 7th 2021 and this is the day when my vert is 50 years old.  It left the Dearborn plant on December 7th, 1971, the same year I was born.  Unfortunately these two old geezers couldn’t celebrate together as one of us is hibernating on the lift in my garage (no, it’s not me...

The title says it all. Coupes (and maybe Sportsroofs), not convertibles!  The question came up in a Facebook group and I thought if anybody knows the answer then it's gonna be one of you guys. :)

Does anybody know if there is a steering rack limiter available for our cars? Or if there is another remedy? I need to prevent the front left tire from rubbing on the frame rail when turning it all the way to the left. They complained about it during inspection and it won't pass next time if...

So today I've had my 72 for 20 years exactly. A lot has happened during those 20 years.  she's seen 5 different sets of rims, has been restored, got a new crate engine, an AOD transmission, a new 3.8 rear end, served as my wedding vehicle, has been to Italy twice, Austria, Hamburg, the Dutch...

So, finally the Mustang is back on the road. Maybe some of you noticed the update on my "idle pressure to high" thread. It turned out it was a stuck valve in the valve body. Once that was taken care of everything went smooth. I'm gonna post both the effect of the swap and the parts we needed...

Ok, I got a fun story for you.  some of you may remember my post in late spring of 2018 that I had bought a Fiat 124 Spider.  Welp, last year I got divorced and my wife didn't really care which car she got, so I gave her the 124 and I kept the VW GTI because I also kept the house and, well...

As some of you may remember I am an practicing musician (guitarist).  Our band Elysian Gates Recently released our newest single.  it's available on all the usual platforms for streaming or download.  it's also on Apple Music but I can't seem to post a link that is not limited to my country's...

Ok, those who know me know that I reaaaally hate my AOD!  now there's a new issue (well not that new but getting worse)  When in overdrive going at low rpm or shifting into overdrive under acceleration at low rpm (Yeah, it immediately goes into overdrive and doesn't realize I'm accelerating...

Hi guys.  So far the year 2020 has sucked big time but it gets worse: luxstang is back in town!!  (Just when you thought it couldn't get worse!)  I know you've been enjoying the silence but all things come to an end eventually. 😉 I've been absent for more than a year due to personal stuff...

Spread some love, appreciate what you got. ;)

Well, I joined a new band a few weeks ago and someone made a pretty good video of a song from my first gig with them in Best, NL, near Eindhoven.

Well, at the age of 47.... midlife crisis seems to have hit. So I went and got me a new toy.  Today I picked up my new Fiat 124spider. Although it's by far not a race car it really bites and has quite a nasty temper when you challenge it.  Basically a typical small Italian sports car. :)

As much as I love my convex passenger side mirror it is really hard to tell angles and distance when backing up, especially as I back up by looking in the mirrors only.  Add paying attention to the car that's parked in front while I'm trying to parallel park behind it and this happens.  The...

Took these pics this morning on my way to work.  Not bad though I still like the earlier GT (40) much better.

Ok i thought I'd shamelessly promote our album on here. Maybe it helps to sell one or two copies and helps pay the bills of my two band mates who are pro musicians. :) The band is "Angel's Whisper", the album is "Strange Days".  Here's the link to download our album on amazon. ...

Some of the new members won't know what I'm talking about but the older ones may remember the times when the shenanigans going on between Wolverine and yours truly were quite famous on here.  Well I just went to Paris to pick him and his lovely wife up. They're going to spend four days here in...

As it's been a while since I last spammed this forum with pictures, I think it's time to do it again. :) These are some of the pictures used in the magazine feature in the June 2017 edition of Chrom & FLammen. Of course I was proud to have it featured in a major publication but the fact...
