Up for bid is the Corvette Hood Support Safety Pin/Flag that will work on any 1953 through 1971 Corvette.  This is a great addition to any Corvette show car or daily driver and a great way to protect your investment.  The pin/flag will prevent the hood support from unlatching if blown by the wind or bumped by a spectator, judge or yourself.  The Safety Pin/Flag works great for Bloomington Gold, NCRS, NCCC, Show and Shine or any other type of judging. It will also keep your hood open when working under the hood in the garage. I started selling these at Corvette meets several years ago after watching a 1971Corvette hood slam down and crack at a meet in Texas.  This pin is a smaller version of the bright red “Remove Before Flight” pins used on Air Force aircraft. Don’t stick a bolt or screw driver through your hood support, use this durable high quality flag that is embroidered on both sides.  Simply slip the clevis pin in the hood support hole and place the hitch pin into the clevis pin all of which are interconnected for safety and convenience.  The red flag is easy to spot when you are ready to lower the hood. Buy with confidence from a 40 year Corvette owner and restorer. If you have any questions please e-mail me I’ll be happy to answer them.  Shipping is via USPS Priority mail in the US and Canada and First Class International Mail to Australia and Europe.

Concept Car of the Week: Alfa Romeo BAT 7

Fri, 31 Aug 2012

This week sees the Concept of the Week title go to Alfa Romeo and Bertone for their collaboration on the Alfa Romeo BAT 7, the second addition to the BAT series that began in 1953 and finished in 1955. First seen at the 1954 Turin motor show, this wildly futuristic ‘dream' car came about after Alfa Romeo contacted Giuseppe "Nuccio" Bertone of the Bertone carrozeria to commission three concepts with the lowest possible drag coefficient. The cars were named BAT for "Berlinetta Aerodinamica Tecnica." Built upon the Alfa Romeo 1900 chassis, the BAT cars featured large rear bumpers and curved fins, and the concepts achieved a drag coefficient of just 0.19 - an impressive result.
