Custom-fabricated replacement cover for the 1960’s “Nifty Shifter” 1960-64 pushbutton mechanism offered originally by Art Carr in that time frame. Custom machined a few years ago by local drag racer and aerospace machinist Dave Wicken for another local drag racer whose Art Carr shifter was missing the original cast aluminum cover. Drag car project never finished and this cover was never picked up or used. Original aluminum covers were generally crudely cast; this replacement was spec’d off an original however this one is fully machined and finely finished. Uses the early 1960’s Dodge pickup truck pushbuttons. Raised area surrounding the REVERSE button prevents accidental shift into reverse. Two protruding tangs on backside are used to secure the cover inside the steel, chromed mounting tube; tangs are not drilled for screws. Cover to be placed in your tube, marked for screw holes, drilled and tapped. All machine work done by hand on a Bridgeport mill, no CNC. Dave had approximately 20 hours into fabricating this replacement part and it is exquisite. Shipping $ 7.55 via Priority Mail; Postal Insurance available for $ 5.70.

Volvo S60 DRIVe & V60 DRIVe launch

Tue, 22 Feb 2011

The Volvo V60 DRIVe This week we’re out playing with a Volvo DRIVe model, although our car is the S40 DRIVe. DRIVe models are Volvo’s push at all things green (or all things blue if you’re German) and take a regular Volvo and eco the bejesus out of it with stuff like stop-start, low rolling resistance tyres and the plethora of eco-toys car makers use to make the headline economy and emissions unbelievable. The result is a Volvo that drives pretty much the same as any Volvo but which can – as long as you play the eco-driving game – run almost on fresh air, and because cars like this are designed to hit emissions targets on official cycles, they’re also good on stuff like VED and BIK. And if the S40 DRIVe we’ve got this week is anything to go by, you can still drive with enthusiasm and enjoy it as long as you don’t mind the economy suffering.
