In honor of my 63rd post, I thought it would be fun to see what other "Dashboard & Dial" combinations get posted. Here's my '63 Nova SS Convertible w/my 1969 Waltham V7736. Post your combo! bristnj - Jeff
1963 as well (Jaguar) so, an excuse to post this again. I've just looked at a 63 Nova. Looks a hell of a car! Cheers, Chris
Car is no longer with me, but the JLC Master Compressor Memovox is...here cruising on the highway in the Z4M roadster at about 170 kph...sorry hard to focus properly and drive at the same time... This is the car... And this is the watch... Cheers, Al
My daily driver '07 Ford Police Interceptor and Speedy G. I purchased my '07 Ford Police Interceptor new from a Ford fleet dealership in 2007. I'm a former full time Cincinnati Police Officer who drove '99 - '03 Ford Police Interceptors on urban patrol from 2004 - 2006. During that time I gained a HUGE appreciation for the Ford Panther platform with the police package...so I purchased my own Ford Police Interceptor...and had it mildly modified with Ford Racing components to give it a little extra punch.
Hey Mad Dog, what's the horsepower on that beast? I know they are heavy cars, but they go like stink with the sirens flashing!
@CdnWatchDoc...the HP isn't too hot...a factory '07 was rated at 250HP at the crank. I believe it stayed at 250HP through the last model year which was '11. I had a mild SCT tune done several years ago which only added about 15HP. Like you stated, they are heavy cars...over 4,000 lbs. My best 1/4 mile is about 15.5 sec but that's with the SCT tune, Ford Racing 3:73 gears and a Ford Racing Trak-Loc LSD...if I remember correctly, my best 1/4 mile time in stock config prior to mods (factory tune, 3:27 gears and an open differential) was about 15.9 sec. Just for the record, I'm a craptastic drag racer so somebody that knows what they're doing would probably have better numbers.
Ha ha, you Americans and your need for big cars Poorman Cairelli here, built in 1979... ... ... inside my poorman Fiat 500L, a 18HP beast (who said bug ???) from 1969, top speed 55 miles per hour ... ... no rush is my motto . .. ... but who cares because this car is the definitive babe magnet ... and trust my words, it makes me feel the richest
"We're on vapor, Cougar" Better head to the gas station...which has a built-in DD...which is awesome. My '07 Ford Police Interceptor instrument panel (again) and Speedy G (again)...
My '01 Ford Mustang Bullitt GT instrument panel and Longines Hour Angle chronograph (just back from servicing)...
Never accept less than 63bhp myself . 1998 Mini Cooper with 1966 Omega 166.0002. 110 mph speedo but, the laws of aerodynamics take over at 80-85... Still the fastest thing through the bends with huge 175/50 R13 tyres on a car weighing 2/3 of a tonne. Greatly amusing when someone is 3ft from your back bumper on a straight and disappears backwards through the twisty bits. Dare not lift off as it takes an age to get back up to speed. Anyway, that's my excuse, officer Here with winter tyres and raring to go. https://omegaforums.net/threads/a-little-wind-cold-and-snow-here-in-chicago.21210/page-3#post-231784 Cheers, Chris
