Installing a Saab 9-3 LSD into a 6-speed transmission
For our Saab 9-3 AER car, we knew that in order to really take advantage of the power we are able to produce, we had to be able to put it to the ground. In a front wheel drive car this is even more difficult because of how much work the front wheels have to […]
Drive North – Wolfsgart 2017, Vermont’s best German car show
Winding out of the green and rocky mountains of Northern Vermont, the Winooski river has always played a vital role in fueling the nearby towns with mill power. Its rocky banks, steeped in history, provide a subtle backdrop to the town of Winooski. Founded before America by Ira Allen, brother of famous colonialist Ethan Allen, […]
Bimmerfest 2017 – Shock and Awe
When we discuss the finer things, a well crafted German car should always make it into the conversation. Of course, there are a few makes to choose from, but not many are more recognizable than a BMW. Having a BMW is like having a nice watch. It doesn’t stand out like a Flavor Flav clock […]
Eight valves, Just enough – A Brief Saab 900 story
I bought my first classic Saab 900 late in the game, back in 2006. It had the 8-valve, non-turbo engine, which doesn’t seem to get a lot of love in the Saab community. Right away, however, it spoke to me with its honesty and its grumbly exhaust. Since these cars are like little orphans, I […]
Let’s Get Started – MkIV VW 1.8T Starter Parts Change
I acquired a new track toy, a 2003 VW Beetle Turbo S. My friend and I have been wrench turning some parts to get it ready for the tough life of a track toy, but at a recent event, I had difficulty getting the car started at times. I originally thought it was a battery […]
eEuroFest 2017 Photo Gallery is LIVE!
Now that the cars all made it back (hopefully in one piece), we feel it’s fine to put a cap on the experience with our official eEuroFest 2017 photo gallery! With over 1500 people attending, and massively good weather, we are ecstatic at how eEuroFest 2017 went. Friday started out early with VIP’s lining up near […]
E34 M5 Resto Part VI: BMW Door Panels and Steering Wheel
Mechanically, the E34 M5 BMW is regarded as a thoroughly over engineered performance machine, typical of German craftsmanship of the era, and perhaps the last vehicle built by the marque that was created using a “cost is no object” philosophy when it came to design hours. The BMW M5 interior, on the other hand, has […]
E34 M5 BMW Part Resto V – ///M5 Badge & BMW Ignition Parts
In replacing my roundels a few weeks ago, it became clear that the BMW ///M5 badge (actually two pieces) on my trunk was looking less than stellar. Years of Texas sun had taken a toll on the coloring and it was becoming a little pitted. Thankfully, these BMW parts are still readily available for order […]
Saabs of Anarchy: Third Time’s the Charm
It is safe to say Saabs of Anarchy’s first attempt at competing in the infamous LeMons racing series last year at Thompson Motor Speedway was a bit of a fiasco, (you can read more about our Thompson experience here and here or watch this video). Despite the two blown SAAB engines, biblical rain, and tireless work to get the SAAB ready to […]
2017 Carlisle Import and Performance Nationals – Photo Gallery is LIVE
This is now the 4th year in a row we’ve been to the Carlisle Import and Performance Nationals in one format or another, and easily we have to say one of the best from our own perspective. Formally known as the Carlisle Import and Kit nationals, we’ve noticed the VW based Manx buggies will show […]
