His interest in smaller trucks started when an employee at his dad's trucking company pulled in with a '72 El Camino and parked right in front of a then 17-year-old Thomas. Through another member he heard about a 1950s Ford pickup that had been parked in a garage for a few years. the 50's ford F100 that had been imported from US in 1996 and had a new interior and beautifull paint job by Harley Davidson in Sweden.

but he's not Satisfied with the power and handling, Thomas decided to fix a few cracks on the chassis,replaced all four fenders, made the headers, 2-inch exhaust, and install a Heidts Mustang II frontend with the help of his friend Joakim Ljungberg, the owner of Vallkra Motorsport

With Erland Cox the Sweden's leading expert, of course one of his buddies in SRIF club, he change the engine block and built more .potent powerplant based on ford 427 after the the valve gave up and busted a head.

And for the bodywork He just settled for a new grille, shiny bumpers, and painted mirrors, plus aftermarket brake lights and for the weels he decided to put a set of 17 - inch Bullitt Mustang

The museum's major focus is on the "muscle cars" of the mid 60's to early 70's this 99000 square feet of classic cars and The museum includes a 60's diner themed cafe as well as a memorabilia gift shop carrying everything from T-shirts, posters and jewelry to neon signs and gas pumps.


Mucle car city is a Home to one of the largest automotive memorabilia stores anywhere..



Volo Auto Museum


this museum was born from the love of a family to a classic cars, In 1960, William Grams moved his family to a 30-acre dairy farm in Volo, Illinois and established a used-furniture business. Eventually, the property and the business would evolve to become the Volo Auto Museum

William and his two sons, Greg and Bill, loved to tinker with old cars. Bill's first car was a 1929 Packard Coupe that he purchased at a junkyard and restored to showroom condition. Greg was 12 when his father bought him a Ford Model-T for $30. While Bill was away at Monmouth University, William and Greg started buying up junk cars. Soon, the family's uninsulated, gravel-floored warehouse was packed with pre-war cars and parts.

Today more than 500.000 people visit the family's complex each year.


Gilmore Car Museum

The Gilmore Car Museum, located midway between Kalamazoo, Grand Rapids, Lansing and Battle Creek, Michigan. Just twenty minutes from either I-94 or US-131.

History
The Gilmore Car Museum was Found by Donald Gilmore, began in 1963 as the hobby of Donald S. Gilmore when his wife, Genevieve, gave him an antique car for his birthday —a 1920 Pierce-Arrow “project car.” With the help of some friends, the auto was placed under a tent and a full restoration followed. The hobby soon grew into a collection of over 30 automobiles. Mr. Gilmore purchased 90 acres of farm property and had several historic barns dismantled piece by piece and moved to the site.

Today, more than 130 antique, classic and collector car on display, the site includes eight historic barns, a re-created 1930s service station, a small town train station, and nearly three miles of paved roads. Dreams of finding an “old car in a barn” are a daily reality here.

camaro-concept-front
camaro-concept-rear

The Chevrolet Camaro concept was the celebrated star of the 2006 auto show season, The introduction of the Camaro convertible concept was on the eve of the North American International Auto Show at GM Style, an exclusive, fashion-splashed event combining celebrities, couture and automobiles. But this concept car launches on the market on early 2009 GM isn't saying yet what engine options the Camaro will initially have, but, like the Dodge Challenger and Ford Mustang, it will ultimately be available with smaller V6s, not just big V8s.

The big V8 engines will be the headline feature just as they always have been for cars like this. But GM expects expects most Camaros it sells will be fitted with V6 engines. While buyers might like its performance-car looks, many won't really want the performance car fuel-economy or the performance car insurance premiums.



The design on the new camaro is terrific. It goes Back to the old muscle car style.The Camaro convertible concept shares exterior dimensions with the Camaro concept, although the convertible concept's windshield surround, which features a bright anodized finish, is changed slightly to accommodate the convertible top. Additional design details include:

  • Tonneau cover over the folded top
  • "Halo" headlamps
  • LED taillamps
  • Rear spoiler with LED-lit CHMSL
  • Racing-inspired fuel filler door
  • Front-inlet hood scoop, inspired by the Corvette Z06
  • Heritage-inspired rear fender "gills"
  • Anodized aluminum door handles
  • Bold 21-inch (front) and 22-inch (rear) wheels, with accent color

As with the Camaro coupe concept, the convertible concept features an instrument panel inspired by first-generation Camaros, including an intricate "round-gauges-in-square-holes" design. The gauges have a deep, three-dimensional appearance, with white faces and red pointers.

A wonderful time in the Summer. The sun shine everyday., the weather temperature fell warm, it is good for us, but be carefull, take a look the engine cooler system on your car, If your car is overheating, getting the issue figured out is critical. Why? Heat destroys engines and that will eventually destroy your bank account.

Really think about what that name is describing. “Combustion” is the key word and is entirely accurate. The engine produces power to the wheels of your vehicle through small explosions. In most cases, this occurs when gasoline and air are introduced to a spark. This sets off a small explosion that pushes a piston down and that turns a shaft. These explosions happen many times a second and each produces a lot of heat. The level of heat is sufficient to melt parts of the engine if the heat is not removed. This is why any overheating problem needs to be identified and dealt with quickly.

  • The first step is to check the easiest thing. Wait for your car to cool down and then pop the radiator cap. Do you have sufficient coolant in the system? It sounds simple, but it is often the problem particularly on older cars. If you are low on coolant, please give an attention for this one, do not simply add water. Take the car and get a full coolant change. Cooling systems require a combined water and engineered coolant mixture to function properly. Now this is a good time to replace the coolant fluid.
  • The second issue to check is the water pump. A water pump that is going bad will usually let you know by sounding like a punk band playing in a blender. It isn’t pretty. If the pump seems alright, check the belt powering it for any wear issues. A belt that looks fine, can still slip so look for a soft, flat shiny surface. If none of these issues appear to be present, it is time to move to the next issue.
  • The thermostat is a misunderstood part of the coolant system. It is not there to cool the car. It performs the opposite function. Why would you want to heat up your engine? Well, the engine needs to be running between a certain temperature range. When you first start your car, the engine is too cold. To heat it up, the thermostat cuts down the flow of coolant through the engine. When the engine heats up, the thermostat stops restricting the flow from the radiator. Thermostats go bad occasionally, which can result in the flow of coolant being restricted. In a warmed up engine, this can easily lead to overheating. The only solution is to replace the thermostat.
  • The final step is to check the pressure cap on the radiator. If it go wrong, it will let pressurized coolant escape while the car is running. This will mess up the balance of the coolant system and will definitely lead to overheating. You can just run the engine with the hood open and look for any coolant escape. It will usually make a sound as well as the pressurized material tries to squeeze through the gap in the gasket. Fortunately, a new pressure cap costs under $20 on most cars.

if you still have overheating problem after doing above steps, you need to go to the mechanic. The coolant system runs through the engine, so there could be a host of problems. Identifying the exact problem will require some expensive testing mechanisms, it is time to get the mechanic help.

A car hood originally meant a head covering either attached to a cloak or a coat or even sometimes made as a separate garment. In the earlier years of car manufacturing a car hood resembled in shape a garment hood. It no longer does so. Actually it has undergone many changes. Different materials have been used for making a car hood. These are steel, aluminum, glass fiber, or carbon fiber.

Other than to protect the Machine, a car hood has to be strong. Carbon fiber has the advantage that despite being light it is quite strong. Being light is also advantageous. The overall weight of the car is reduced if you use a carbon fiber Mustang hood. As a consequence lesser power is required for driving a car. This results in economy of running expenses. The carbon fiber hood is, therefore, becoming more and more acceptable. Since a car hood is located just above the front wheels, the weight on front wheels is much less if a carbon fiber hood is used. It gives better balance to the car and driving becomes easier and it is important for muscle car like Mustang.

Secondly, a car owner can also make a style statement with a carbon fiber Mustang hood. Carbon fiber can be designed in a variety of shapes. Open and split from the middle, or The car can be given a look as per the owner’s choice, whether it is a racing car look or an aggressive look. Carbon fiber hood is available in a number of colors. If you do not like any of the colors, you can have it painted as per your choice. The hood can have vents to allow the outside air to cool the engine. A cooler engine is more efficient than a hot engine.

A Mustang is a car with the big engine and they have heavy weight, if you want to reduce the weight, carbon fiber hood is the right option for this purpose.
