bbs ra's


nice magazine cover


the wheels this guy has are my bbs ra's...but his are in silver, mine are black centers with polished lips...nice...


a similar picture of the bonnet above...




320/6


there is a very nice example of a euro 320/6 over at loonygarage.com its my first visit to there site...but the private collection is worth looking into...here's a teaser...

nice profile


the chic in this pic is admittedly distracting...however, the reason i posted this picture is because the white interior while not a stock option with a white shifter boot is really worth consideration particularly since my car is red...i'm not a big fan of the shifter boot however...


usually, chrome is best suited for american muscle cars, not there euro counterparts...but this radiator bottle, while featured in chrome caught my eye...

the reason i posted this picture of the 320/6 is it struck me how the photographer captured the color of the car, connecting it with the color of the airplane's propellor pulls the picture together nicely...i need to focus similarly on photos of my car...probably photshoped however...ha

weber carburetors



the fuel line connectors on this look like something i should use...they match the oil lines for the engine...very nice...also notice how the car's owner has utilized a similar hose configuration for the m10 valve cover...very nice idea...

backing plates for brake ducts







If you are adding fully functional brake ducts to your track or race car, this hose kit is a must. It includes two 4 foot lengths of high-temp duct hose and 4 appropriate sized hose clamps. This is the same duct hose we use in our reknowned racing brake duct kits & our championship winning BMW race cars. This is the best suited and highest quality hose for the job. We wouldn't use anything less -- would you?
