Tim Oyer Interview

We talk to Tom at length about the 2022 SCCA Nationals and how he faired with his Ford Escort ZX2..  We talk about the season leading up to the event, along with the logistics it takes to get signed up and ready to race.  All in all, win or lose, it sounds like a great time for newbies to experienced drivers.

News

We talk Gas vapors and how dangerous old car fuel systems can be.  We are so glad that Jay Leno is OK and hope he keeps getting his hands dirty working on his old cars!

200 HP Prius?  Yeah, Eric complains about it!  But he would drive it.

Teslas have a “Burning down the house” problem after the South Florida Hurricane that destroyed Fort Myers Beach.  Salt Water and EV batteries to not mix!?!?!  Who woulda thunk that?

Ford Corsair 1500. RHD Import from South Africa which is fully UK registered. Very very solid car which is a bit scruffy and could do with a tidy up. All tax and duty paid. I have UK V5 in my name

Eric

1968 Toyota Crown – $11,995

Cadillac, MI · 333 mi away

1968 Toyota Crown Wagon. This car still runs great and looks great. Fun to drive, all original inside and out. It will need paint, but not too much more. -Vehicle is on consignment and at our client’s home

Tim

Some kind of crazy oddball Mercury thing that exudes ooohs and ahhhhs.  Because… Tim.
