A Trip Down MIKE GALLO
When the 1992 GMC Typhoon came out it was a bit different but it was still cool. There weren’t too many of these trucks but once in awhile you would see one rolling down the streets. Now, this wasn’t your ordinary truck, this little all wheel drive 4.3 L turbocharged vehicle was actually pretty quick. It had 280 horsepower with 360 ft. lb. of torque and coupled with it being all wheel drive it got out of its way rather quickly from a dead stop. These vehicles were a limited production and are quite rare today. They sported an automatic transmission which was a 4L60 and a limited-slip type differential. The shift quality of the four speed transmission was pretty good.
The typhoons also came with special ground effects and body work to set it apart from a normal GMC Jimmy. The trucks were also lowered. Back then you could have one of these trucks for the low price of $29,470 which in all actuality was a little bit steep back then. Also the pistons and fuel injectors and throttle body were borrowed from the L98 Corvette V8. The turbocharger was a Mitsubishi unit and produced 14 lbs of boost. Word on the street is that General Motors is thinking of building a new version of this vehicle but as of right now that’s just hearsay. Keep your fingers crossed. Do you remember these trucks back in the early 90s? Hope you enjoyed this trip down memory lane.

The 2015 North East Auto Show
700hp Supercar She’s Back! : The 2015 Z28
Cobra Dan transforms this Ford GT ED YESSAIAN For months prior to the model year 2005, Ford Motor Company already had rumors all over the internet in relation to a proposed “supercar”. Concept cars had already been “spied” and eventually a production version came to light that far exceeded the expectations of performance enthusiasts. The new FORD GT, as it was called had many responsibilities; to celebrate the company’s 100th Anniversary, to pay respects to the original GT40 racing Lauryn “Hotwheels” Pontiac-Vernancio was produced, but it also brought with it a whole new legend that enjoyed dominance in the 60’s, and also to establish Ford as apower. version of retro-fitted World Class player in the supercar niche. The FORD GT was influenced by This version of the Caroll Shelby and partially assembled at Saleen, two of thenew biggest icons inoriginal bad boy holds a The weekend of the North East Auto Show was whopping 7.0 V8 engine racing’s past, present, and future.

more could an enthusiast possibly need? According to Mark Lombardi, he needed “…just a little bit more”. Mark started with a Tungsten Grey 2006 FORD GT, which was completely stock from top to bottom and included all four of the previously mentioned options. He truly admired the factory offered capabilities of the car, but was always curious about how the car would react to minor tweaks. He called upon the man they call COBRA DAN, an expert in SVT Cobra’s, GT500’s, and pretty much anything else with a Ford Modular engine. COBRA DAN stuck to the basics for the first stages of this build by opening up the breathing chores with an Accufab throttle body and an Accufab cat-back exhaust with muffler delete. A set of NGK plugs was recommended by the tuner Pete Johnson of Performance Dyno, before loading the SCT software for their initial spin on the rollers, just to get a few baseline numbers. From there, the only other change to the car was a 2.69 pulley that cranked the output to 672rwhp and 660 ft/lbs of neck snapping torque at 15lbs of boost during Performance Dyno’s Spring Dyno Day. According to COBRA DAN, these cars respond very well to modifications and there’s a huge list of components that can make a world of difference. And COBRA DAN can install them all- from simple
bolt-ons to more involved changes like upgraded blowers or porting the stock Eaton, he can really wake these cars up. As always our next question for Mark Lombardi, the car’s owner was “What’s next” but of course he didn’t let out any secrets. This means we’ll have to keep in touch with COBRA DAN to stay updated. If any of our MOTORHEAD readers want to simply dominate the Street or strip with their FORD GT, GT500, Terminator COBRA or other Ford Mod-Motor car be sure to give COBRA DAN a ring at 781-831-2717 and of course maximize those gains at PERFORMANCE DYNO 603-226-FAST CALL 401-965-9012 TO ADVERTISE

JEEP CJ-5 - THE “CIVILIAN JEEP”
By ELISSA DELUCA
According to itstillruns.com, the Jeep CJ5 (or CJ-5, the formal designation) is a version of the original World War II and Korean War era military Jeeps produced by Willys. The CJ, which stands for “Civilian Jeep,” is the most enduring marque used for both off-road and city driving, spawning imitators like the International Harvester Scout, the early Chevrolet Blazers and even the later Jeep Cherokees under Chrysler. The CJ5 was produced between 1954 and 1983 by Kaiser, American Motors and Chrysler, ultimately selling 603,303 units. Willys was sold to Kaiser in 1953. During its lifetime 11 versions of the Jeep CJ5 were sold.

Bill at Frenchtown Auto Sales has a 1960 Jeep CJ5 available for sale (see pricing and details in above ad).

You can also check out many more vehicles Bill has available by going online to www.frenchtownautosales.com.
SIGNIFICANCE The CJ5 is the first civilian vehicle manufactured specifically for off-road use. It’s nearly identical to the iconic military Jeep, with no doors, a fold-down windshield and a canvas top. Models were the Tuxedo Park Mark, the Camper, the 492, Renegades I and II, Super Jeep, Golden Eagle, the Golden Eagle California Edition, Golden Hawk and the Silver Anniversary Limited Edition. One model, the Tuxedo Park Mark IV, offered a sports-style version with chrome bumpers, tail lamp trim, hood latches and a selection of seat and convertible top cover colors. Engine sizes were the 225-cublic-inch V-6 and 304-cubic-inch V-8 on an 81inch wheelbase through 1971, then the 83.5-inch wheelbase. INTERESTING FACT The Jeep CJ5 traversed the jungles of South America in the 1984 Michael Douglas movie “Romancing the Stone.” The Jeep is the great-grandfather of the SUV, but let’s not forget it has been the most influential and most recognized in not just its own class but also in

Supply Centre, Inc. SVT COBRA Jay Pjojian’s Immaculate
There’s really no other felling like taking delivery of your first Mustang or Muscle Car, especially when you’re in your early teenage years. The first time you lay eyes on that aggressive stance, the first smell of the leather interior, the first feeling of that rumble that happens after your first turn of the key. Every one of us can recall what seemed like the greatest day of our life when we got behind the wheel of our very own piece of American History. For Jason Pjojian of Cranston RI, that amazing sense of ownership and pride came to reality this past summer when he got his hands on his immaculate 1997 SVT COBRA.

Hope & Healing Is All The Buzz By JENN LOMBARI Joshua Mello, owner of K’s Kustoms, and his partner, Rachel Ware, have been busy bees over the past four months. Josh and Rachel set out to find a 20 year old Peg-Perego Volkswagon Bug, with the intention of modifying it and turning it into a one of a kind work of art to be presented to a child in need of some cheering up. Essentially, they were recreating Bumblebee, from the 2018 movie of the same name. The first in what they say will be many in their Hope & Healing Build line, this car is truly out of this world. A ride on vehicle unlike any other, started out as Project Code Name: Gold Wheels, an obscure nickname for Bumblebee in the Transformers movies. A theme in the movie is of loss, where the character has lost their father. The project followed suit when it was decided that it would be given to a brother and sister, 5 and 9 years old, in Weymouth, MA whose father, a police officer, had lost his life in the line of duty last year. If you’ve seen the movie, you know the character, Charlie, finds a yellow VW Bug in a junkyard and wants it for her 18th birthday. She soon discovers that this isn’t any regular vehicle. This is where her relationship with Bumblebee starts. Josh and Rachel follow the scenes from the movie throughout their project starting with the honeycomb found above the front driver’s side wheel. In a scene from the movie, the camera pans and you can see the reflection of the Golden Gate Bridge in the window. This was recreated with an illuminated laser engraved acrylic window. The passenger window displays the Weymouth Police badge with the officer’s badge number. The glove box opens and a thin blue line can be seen. Every life moment deserves a soundtrack! The Bumblebee build includes a radio with a custom cassette that Josh created using the 80’s themed songs from the movie and in between songs, radio static, mimicking Bumblebee trying to find his voice. The car starts with a key and this prompts actual VW bug sounds including engine and horn. All the lights are LED and an authentic 80s plate light illuminates a replica of the license plate that Bumblebee has. The car even has the one side mirror with black post, just like the original. Rachel created all the vinyl graphics, supplying honeycomb imagery throughout the vehicle and the necessary Transformers logos on the steering wheel center and under the hood. Upon exploring the engine area, there is an active fan belt with pulleys and a charging port for accessories. The trunk is quite the scene! Josh bought a limited edition
Bumblebee mask from Target and modified it to replicate the scene in the movie where Charlie looks under the car and his eyes light up. That is under an acrylic plate that illuminates the engraved names of the project’s sponsors in the same way Bumblebee sees the world through his eyes in “Bee Vision. Blue and amber lights simulate these details amongst more honeycomb graphics. As if this isn’t cool enough, Josh has switches and buttons throughout the vehicle that prompt sound effects and actual scenes from the movie from sound effects to spoken dialog. There are switches in the door handles, under the dash, in the trunk, all making each ride fun and unique. And they have good volume. K’s Kustoms decided to finalize this project by working a long with Joe Fiduccia. Fiduccia is the owner and operator of Optimus Is Here, an exact replica tractor trailer truck. Bumblebee is one of the soldiers under Optimus Prime’s command. For this delivery of the vehicle, Bumblebee will be delivered personally by Optimus Is Here. What an experience this will be!

WHEN DID ELECTRIC HORNS APPEAR IN CARS? Oliver Lucas of Birmingham, England, developed a standard electric car horn in 1910. Car horns are usually electric, driven by a flat circular steel diaphragm that has an electromagnet acting on it in one direction and a spring pulling in the opposite direction. The diaphragm is attached to contact points that repeatedly interrupt the current to that electromagnet causing the diaphragm to spring back the other way, which complete the circuit again. This arrangement opens and closes the circuit hundreds of times per second which creates a loud noise like a buzzer or electric bell, which sound enters a horn to be amplified. There is usually a screw to adjust the distance/tension of the electrical contacts

Joann met her husband, Glenn, when she was just 14 and he was 17 years old. He was into cars. He was building them in his parents driveway. She used to get so mad that he spent more time with those cars than he did with her. Well, she too, grew to love cars, the car shows and the people they met along the way. She loved to take pictures of the cool cars but had no place to post them. Joann found out about Hotrod Hotline on the Internet and was able to become a roving reporter and submit all the pictures she would take at car shows in her area. She still does it today.
They also bought and sold many cars along the way. Her and Glenn, now have 5 cars. They have a 1934 Chevy sedan that is pro-streeted with a 502, that she loves to drive. Their 1941 blown Willys coupe (Willys are her dream cars. She absolutely loves them!) A 1962 Buick Skylark gasser. They never owned a gasser before purchasing this one but it has opened up a whole new car culture for the couple. They also own a 1966 Chevelle, that was once a race car and has since been converted back to a street car with a 502 BBC, that they drive everywhere. This Chevy has never seen the inside of their trailer. Last, but not least, our 1970 Chevy C10 stepside that is pro-streeted with a 454 CBB.
The passion kept growing and then Facebook came along. Then, in 2012, she started Northeast Hotrodders as a local group where everyone can post car shows and cruise nights, car related businesses, pictures of cars and anything car related. Joann was very happy when she had 100 members, thrilled when she had 1000 members and now here they are reaching 9000 members and not just in the northeast, but all over the country and in New Zealand, Australia, Japan and a few other countries worldwide. Joann met so many great people and found so many new shows and events because of this group. She works full time at monitoring this group by herself. She has great members and the group more, or less, runs itself. Occasionally, there will be a problem with bullying, etc., but its deleted and its done. She also has

IT’S CRUISING TIME!
By BILL PRATT
four-barrel carburetor, 4:11 gear ratio, and safety tubes.
We’re finally in the good old summertime, which means cruising and cruise nights. What would either of those things be without some good music? Not as much fun, that’s for sure. So we thought we’d have some fun this month and take a look at a few classic car songs you’ll hear at every good Cruise Night!
Ryan based the description of the hot rod lincoln on his own hot rod, which was built from a 1948 12-cylinder Lincoln chassis shortened two feet, with a 1930 Ford Model A body fitted to it. Ryan raced his hot rod against a Cadillac sedan driven by a friend in Lewiston, Idaho, driving up the Spiral Highway (former U.S. Route 95 in Idaho) to the top of Lewiston Hill. Ryan incorporated elements from this race in his lyrics to “Hot Rod Lincoln,” but changing the setting to Grapevine Hill (a long, nearly straight grade up Grapevine Canyon to Tejon Pass, near the town of Gorman, California) to fit it within the narrative of “Hot Rod Race.”
LITTLE DEUCE COUPE BY THE BEACH BOYS ‘Deuce Coupe’ is slang for a 1932 Ford Coupe (deuce being for the year). This was considered by many to be the definitive “hot rod.” The Model B had four cylinders, and the Model 18 featured the Ford flathead V8 engine when the car was introduced. Either a 3-window or 5-window coupe is still a ‘deuce’. In the 1940s, the ‘32 Ford became an ideal hot rod, being plentiful and cheap enough for young men to buy, and available with a stylish V-8 engine. The original “Little Deuce Coupe” was Clarence “Chili” Catallo’s beautiful ‘32 coupe hot rod, then nicknamed the “Silver Sapphire.” It appeared on the cover of Hot Rod Magazine in July 1961 but really became famous when it was used on the cover of The Beach Boys’ Little Deuce Coupe album in 1963. A ‘deuce coupe’ also appeared in Bruce Springsteen’s Blinded By The Light (made popular by Manfred Mann’s Earth Band in 1976) in the lyrics “Revved up like a deuce another runner in the night.”
409 BY THE BEACH BOYS The 409 in the song was a 1961 Chevrolet Impala SS 409. Specifically, it’s the Bel-Air sport coupe version which had the “4-speed, dual-quad, Positraction” equipment. It could do a quarter mile in 12.22 seconds at 115 mph and could go from zero to 60 in 4 seconds. The engine had a single Carter four-barrel carburetor that could generate up to 360 horsepower. With a bit of tweaking, you could easily achieve more than 400 horsepower, which made the car a big hit with street racers. Brian Wilson wrote this song with Gary Usher, who was a hot rod freak. Usher told Gene Sculatti, a music journalist, “I had a 409. One day we (Usher and Brian Wilson) were driving up to Los Angeles looking for a part for my car, and I said ‘Let’s write a song called ‘409’. We’ll do a thing ‘giddy up, giddy up,’ meaning horses for horsepower,’ just kidding around.” According to a couple of sources, the engine heard in the song was actually a 348, and it was recorded on the street in front of Brian Wilson’s house.
HOT ROD LINCOLN BY CHARLIE RYAN “My pappy said, ‘Son, you gonna drive me to drinkin’ if you don’t stop drivin’ that Hot Rod Lincoln.’” First released in 1955, this song was written as an answer song to Arkie Shibley’s 1951 hit “Hot Rod Race,” which describes a race in San Pedro, California, between two hot rod cars, a Ford and a Mercury, which stay neck-and-neck until both are overtaken by “a kid in a hopped-up Model A.” It is sung from the perspective of this third driver, whose own hot rod is a Ford Model A body with a Lincoln-Zephyr V12 engine, overdrive, a
BEEP BEEP BY THE
PLAYMATES
This song has a somewhat local connection – the three “Playmates” came from Waterbury, Connecticut, and met at the University of Connecticut. They started out touring Canada as a comedy troupe called “The Nitwits,” but over a period of 4 years, they transformed into a musical comedy group and changed their name to The Playmates. This song is more commonly known as “The Little Nash Rambler.” A Nash Rambler was produced by Nash Motors in 1950. It was a bubble-shaped little car that became the first compact car manufactured and sold in America. At that time the American driving public were used to driving big Cadillac land yachts, so they tended to look down on compacts. The humor in the song comes from the ironic “race” between a Cadillac and a Rambler. A commenter on an internet site, ExTex, added this bit of information about the song: “The story behind the song is based on a little-known mechanical fact about the ‘little Nash Rambler’ cars. They could be ordered with an optional electrically-operated overdrive system triggered by a switch on the shift lever. Due to a design flaw on earlier models, once the overdrive was engaged, the transmission couldn’t be shifted out of gear without turning the overdrive off. It was all too easy to accidentally turn the overdrive on when shifting, thereby ‘locking’ the car in the last selected gear. Also, due to a fluke in the gear ratios and the way the engine ran, it was actually possible to go somewhat faster in 2nd gear with the overdrive engaged than it was in ‘high’ gear! In certain models of Ramblers with the larger engine and the manual transmission equipped with the overdrive, young men of inquiring minds found that it was possible to exceed 120 mph using this ‘undocumented’ feature.” So now you know a little background on some favorite car songs. Hope it adds a little something to your enjoyment of your local Cruise Night! Bill Pratt is the Owner & General Manager of Rock ‘n Road Outfitters.

Truck Stuff: Ford F150 Sto XANDER YESSAIAN 2018 F150 Lariat Courtesy of Stoneham Ford Greetings Motorheads, it’s your little buddy Xander here, out and about in search of the coolest rides to feature, as well as performance parts and accessories to maximize your enjoyment and make that ride of yours one of a kind. In addition to Muscle cars, which are sometimes our second vehicles, there’s also that daily driver and let’s face it; none of us can leave anything alone, so even the daily drivers get a few custom touches. But of course there are also functional modifications, and when you start talking about trucks, those functional modifications are endless. Bedliners, Tonneau covers, Back racks, hitches, and the list goes on and on. Which brings us to one of the coolest new products from Ford Motor Company; The Stowable loading ramp, offered as an accessory through your local Ford dealer’s Parts Dept or directly from the factory, already installed on your new F150.
The Stowable Loading ramp is offered in two ways- a single ramp (part #FL3Z-99286F56-B) or two ramp set (part #HC3Z-99286F56-C) . It includes the brackets that snap into your factory BoxLink to hold the ramps, twist nuts to secure them into the brackets and locking cables that configure to your truck’s key to secure your ramps when not in use.

Stowable Loading Ramps riding. He marveled at the fact that the ramps don’t flex like homemade variations and don’t slide or move like many of the other generic versions, insuring your safety while loading stuff into your bed and also reducing the risk of damaging your toys or the actual truck should the ramps move or fall off the tailgate. Personally, I think this is a must have item for anyone with an interest in Motorsports, especially considering the fact that you never have to worry about forgetting your ramps and if you happen
to be ordering a new truck you can figure them into your financing. For me it means that no matter where we go, my Dad can pack a few of my big boy toys and have them on hand if I need entertainment while away from home. No matter how you look at it, the Ford Stowable Loading ramp is a cool option on your 2015- present Ford F150 and is readily available from your local dealer. You heard it here first- Xander Y- OUT!!
After I assisted in the installation of the ramps in my Dad’s 2018 F150 Lariat, my Dad and I did some research and found out that these ramps are designed to hold up to 800lbs each, which should be adequate for most of what you can fit in the
back of a standard bed F150. My Dad and I then did a test run with my modified Power Wheels LIL’ F150, which rolled right up into the bed so we could head off to my cousin’s house for a day of

TIMOTHY ROBILLARD: GON
By MIKE GALLO
It seems like the last five years have gone by in a flash. Although the time has gone by it still has been tough considering that we lost a great friend, an unbelievable Car Guy and a great father to his children - Timothy Robillard. I remember getting the call in 2014 at 6 in the morning by his good friend Russell that we lost him, and for me and Russell and his family members and anybody that he touched their lives, it was absolutely devastating. Tim was the type of guy that could walk in the room and immediately the room would liven up and become fun and exciting. I can still hear his voice saying “what’s up big man” and it still feels real. You got to ask yourself why some things happen in life, and although I don’t have the answer to that question, I will try my best to accept things as they happen, but it doesn’t get any easier. For me, I first met Tim at a car show in Seekonk. I was pulling in my car and really didn’t know anybody that day and he called me over to park with him with another one of his friends, Russell, who would end up becoming one of my best friends in the world. We immediately hit it off and got along
incredibly well.
Tim had a bad ass Camaro with a big block that I personally watched run a high 9-second pass at the track. On that day RI Master Lic. #1466 & #786 I dubbed his car “Fran50 Underwood Lane kenstein,” and the name Middletown, RI 02842 sort of stuck.

Tim was a very wild and fun guy and with his craziness things could sometimes get out of hand quickly - in a fun way. He talked often of his children and how much he loved them and of course his family and friends. You could find Tim at just about any event that had something to do with cars and if you ever went to the turkey burn on Thanksgiving Day, Tim was usually there ripping it up in his Camaro or his new found love his Trans Am. Tim could also be found online on the burnout box forum bench racing and talking smack to people just for fun. During the winter months when there was nothing much going on with the cars, Tim would
always give me a call weekly to check up on me to see how I was doing. We also shared our ideas for making our cars faster for the next season. On a fun-filled night Tim could be found out with friends having a few drinks and relaxing after a long day of work. Tim was one of the best and hardest workers I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting and knowing. I can’t say enough good
things about him. And him being gone makes it that much harder to cope with at certain times for me and everyone else. Tim was only 45 at the time of his passing and he had many, many, many years ahead of him before his life got cut short. The world for me is a different place without him and the Sun doesn’t seem to shine as bright since his absence. I know that they say Tim will live on in our memories and it’s true but I wish I still had more than memories and could see him or hear his voice one more time. Or maybe see him on

ESS ‘57
By JOHN CONTI SR. Half and three quarter ton pickup trucks dominated the country’s landscape all through the 1930’s, 40’s and 50’s as necessities to get the job done, whether it was hauling hay on farms or gravel to the worksite. The real work horses of the 30’s and 40’s got somewhat stylish body lines in the late 40’s and all through the years to current, never stopping to enhance the overall appearance. The combination of the 50’s era styling, along with function, can be plainly seen in Mike Rego’s 1957 Chevy Apache if you keep the hood closed while accessing. Things change abruptly when you view the interior, complete with custom pleated seats and detailed instrumentation, along with a tilt steering column. Going forward along the extremely straight, yet decades old, “Andy LeFlem” teal body and raising the hood exposes a 396 Big Block Chevy custom installation done by Jim Conti at Conti’s Auto Service & Motorsports with all the bracketry and trimming the photos indicate. Custom engine mounts were fabricated from round tubing and mild steel plate. The radiator location was juggled to get the high amp “Spal” pusher electric fan sandwiched between the grill
and radiator with no extreme sectioning of structural components. This was done due to

the physical size of the Big Block Chevy with the accessory drive setup chosen and the space limitations from the firewall forward on the Apache. Prior to the engine installation, the frame rails and front crossmember were shaved, prepped,
primed, blocked and top coated, forward of the firewall. The brake assist was enhanced by totally redesigning a dual diaphragm booster frame mounted with a fabricated heavy wall adjustable pushrod tube setup. A B&M transmission cooler with a dedicated electric fan cools the transmission, which is soon to be upgraded to a 400 Turbo to handle the Big Block’s torque comfortably. Old school dual four AFB style/Edelbrock carburetors mix the fuel with atmospheric air before it enters the dual plane intake and flows through the ’69 Camaro heads, which exit through Hooker Competition headers then dump into the 304 stainless steel alloy 3” fabricated and tig welded also by Jim Conti, suspended by heavy duty stainless steel hangers with steel reinforced rubber insulators assuring the system is going nowhere. Nickel anodized AN fittings were incorporated throughout the engine bay build right down to the radiator hoses, tig welding aluminum bungs to the radiator tanks. The early Mustang II steering rack was plumbed with stainless steel high pressure teflon hoses and fittings with the late Corvette style power steering pump. Current upgrades which are being done as you read this consists of tubular control arms with adjustable coil-overs to further improve the ride quality with the BBC. Four piston Wilwood calipers will also be installed in the front suspension before the 4th of July. Like most hands-on trades people, Mike enjoys cruising with family members to take the edge off the workday and keep him smiling from when he turns the key to fire it up.

PAIR OF 1969 CAT two kids Tiffany and James. “My father helped me purchase my first car, a 1959 Ford Galaxy. The Ford needed a paint job and a little interior work. After that car was completed, it was sold, and I next purchased a 1969 Ford Torino which had a 390hp and 4 speed. However, I always had my eye on my father’s 1969 Cougar.” Jeff ’s father purchased a 1969 Cougar new in ‘69 at Bridge Street Motors in Martinsville, VA. “My Father had told me when I turned 25 years old, I could have the Cougar; but that didn’t happen. I think he just had such a love for the car he just couldn’t give it up. Unfortunately, my father passed away in July of 2017, and I inherited the 1969 Cougar Convertible.”

Having been garage kept since around 1980, the Cougar was in pretty good shape. It had a few torn places in the top; thus Rudy’s Upholstery installed a new one. A new set of Magnum 500 wheels with BF Goodrich tires were added. Original seats had a few seams splitting, so installed new seat covers from West Coast Classic Cougars. Finally, the cat was repainted about 20 years ago, and this Mercury still looks pretty good. 224 were built with this paint code Light Ivy Yellow and 61 with these Continued Next Page

Currently the odometer reads 89,450 miles. “I drive my Cougar 1 or 2 times a month during the summer. It’s a pleasure to drive very smooth and rides great.” Jeff ’s cat has been in the same family since it was new. The hideaway lights and convertible top are the greatest things he likes about his Cougar. “My car sat in the show room alongside an Ivy Green Cougar Convertible, which was sold here in town also.

HOW TO Rob’s CLEAN BLACK PO Transmission BUSINESS OF THE MONTH

and Automotive Repair
If you’re like me I’m constantly cleaning my car and now that the weather has finally gotten nice I’ve been cleaning ot a lot more often. One of my biggest issues is keeping my black powder coated wheels clean. It seems like it’s a never-ending battle, either the pollen or just road grime is constantly keeping them from Lauryn “Hotwheels” Pontiac-Vernancio shining bright. Well I have a nice solution to the problem.
The product that I rely on to keep my wheels clean and looking goodfocuses is Original Bike Spirits is our loyal One of the main at this publication spray cleaner and polish. That’s right you read correctly the polish I use is actually bikes advertisers and bragging aboutfor their exceptional motorcycles services. One shop that weorvisited and noticed to be the cream of the crop is Rob’s Transmissions, which rather. is locally owned by Robert Bourne and operated in How I stumWarwick, Rhode Island conveniently snuggled in next bled upon to T.F.

His primary to the product. focus while working in other shopsit after I used to graduation was transmission, as he learned basics behind clean the chrome them. He says that exploring a transmission is “like the wheels on my
show CSI, you need to trace the events to see what may have happened”. This includes checking the computer, all pressures, and all hard parts. Tips on transmission maintenance from Rob are as follows: Have your transmission serviced every thirty thousand miles with a basic flush. At sixty thousand miles have the transmission pan put in, fluid flushed, and a new filter installed. If you do get stuck in a snow storm or mud, do not shift the car back and forth with force, doing so can cause premature wear and he recommends having your vehicle towed out. Finally, if your vehicle is towing capable, make sure you have an auxiliary cooler so your transmission doesn’t overheat. It was a blessing to have a tour of the transmission build room which has a see-through glass with various transmission makes and parts stacked neatly and enough to tell they were having a busy season. For information on their superior workmanship, do not hesitate to give Rob Bourne and his team of trusted technicians a call at 401-432-7535 or visit their location at 11 Roseland Avenue in Warwick, Rhode Island.

POWDER COATED WHEELS motorcycles and also black wheels. And it works on many other parts of vehicles just as well. What I usually do is I wash my wheels with soap and water in a bucket and a few different wheel brushes. I rinse them off with a hose and let them dry. After that I take the Original Bike Spirits spray cleaner and spray the entire wheel down and let it sit for a few seconds before wiping off the excess with a clean microfiber towel. Once the majority of all the spray cleaner is off I will grab a second microfiber towel and wipe the wheels down and polish them ever so lightly. The wheels look like brand new after doing this and the product seems to help keep the dust off them for a little while. I have tried a few different products but this is my all-time favorite and for roughly $9 a can it is well worth it and goes a long way. So if you have black or any other
powder coated color wheel I would tell you to give this a try. It’s a very good product.
Hope this helps you out and keeps the car shining and looking good for this season.

Etch continues driving down the empty back country roads and gets a sense of complete loneliness as he keeps glancing back into his rearview mirror and back again, out of his vehicle windshield. It begins to drizzle. Etch turns on his lights and windshield wipers thinking the reason why the roads are deserted may be because of some oncoming weather conditions that he may not fully be aware of. He hasn’t really had much time to catch up on current events in the news, other than the fact that he is the news, or any weather reports. The rains start to become much more aggressive and it is becoming harder to see out of his windshield or any other window. His windshield wipers are factory wipers and not meant for heavy rain driving. Etch tries to find the news and
weather on his car radio but all he is getting is a lot of static. A few moments later, it begins to hail as the skies turn black as night. It is the middle of the day. “This can’t be good.” He picks up the pace behind the wheel of his wanted GTO and heads towards what he hopes is a safe haven for his prized Pontiac, and of course, himself. He is thinking the only weather pattern that resembles this one is followed by tornadoes and that’s something that he can definitely do without right now. It’s bad enough he has law enforcement chasing him all over God’s creation but now he has to deal with the possibilities of severe weather conditions and tornadoes too? Etch is trying desperately to find a bridge overpass along these New England backroads so he can roll up under it
and protect his vehicle but hasn’t found one yet. He is clearly concerned for the welfare of his fleeing classic muscle car and trying to avoid getting killed in the process. The skies are getting darker and he still can’t find anything on his radio other than static. He hopes that he is at least driving away from any tornadoes that may develop and not directly into the path of one of them, or maybe more than one of them. Either way, he’s worried about his current situation.

THE LINCOLN JOHNNY L
JIM WEICHERDING
The Lincoln Johnny Lightning Race Club was founded by Jeremy Morin back in 2007 in the basement of his home with 5 other Johnny Lightning collectors. After two years of racing in his basement he decided to grow the club and bring it out to the public when it became an official race club in March of 2009 at the MacColl YMCA in Lincoln. The club today features four race tracks and has around 150 club members locally and all over the country. The club is also the Official Race Club of the Johnny Lightning brand which is owned by Tom Lowe (Round2). One of the biggest things the LJLRC does on a monthly basis is raise money for a local charitable organization out of Warwick RI A Wish Come True. Along with that the club holds a huge two day event every July at the MacColl YMCA called Diecast Jam. It features downhill gravity racing with

What is about this winter that has you chomping at the bits, or just simply frustrated? Is it the never ending back-to-back snowstorms, or the severe cold temperatures, or is it both weather conditions combined?
With me, it is all of the above. Hate the snow, hate the cold temperatures, hate winter months altogether.
Most Makes & Models EXPERTS IN HYBRID VEHICLE REPAIR We are a GREEN Auto Body Shop
I want mild temperatures and sunny days. I want longer, sunny and warmer days. The days are getting longer, but nearly long enough. I am sure that most of the readers reading this article right now would love nothing more than to be driving in their classic cars and trucks on nice clean blacktop roadways across New England instead of trying to manage slick, snow and ice covered roadways.
OUR SERVICES INCLUDE
This article is being written in February, but I would imagine that not much of the bad road conditions will be changed significantly by the time this publication hits distribution locations across the region in March. Snow, more snow, and then more snow, surrounds our homes, businesses, work locations and vehicles and I am sick of it!

2019 GMC MIKE GALLO
The legendary SYCLONE is back as a 455 horsepower supercharged truck. Starting with a 2019 GMC Canyon extended cab. The company SVE tuned Syclones will come with a supercharged 3.6 L V6 and will be offered with either rear or all wheel drive. This vehicle is a descendant of the ultra rare 1991 GMC Syclone that was a turbocharged V6 and was all wheel drive and boasted a 0 to 60 time of 4.3 seconds. This company SVE which stands for special vehicle engineering was granted the licensing and rights from General Motors to build the vehicle. SVE says it will only build 100 of these trucks. The cost of doing this from them is $39,995 on top of the price of the donor truck which can be either a two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive extended cab Canyon it will also be available to order via GMC dealers or you can get in touch with SVE directly. The Canyon’s interior will get special performance treatment via Syclone embroidered seats, custom Syclone branded floor mats and a numbered Dash plaque. Each new GMC SYCLONE will also come with a numbered manufacturer certificate of origin and Syclone branded key fobs. Other options include a stainless steel Cat-Back dual exhaust system 20 inch 5 spoke wheels with
Syclone graphics and sticky front and rear performance tires. There are some standard exterior and cosmetic enhancements as well such as composite hood insert body-color rocker panels, Syclone door and tailgate badges. Also a body color front grill and grill bars, and a painted rear bumper. Unlike the original Syclone it will be available in any factory GMC Canyon color and not just black. It’s nice to see that these Syclone trucks are being offered again and I’m sure they won’t disappoint. Take a ride to your local GM dealer and order one.
