Cool car! I love owning a 'rare' beast that not everybody knows about. I put a Borla Exhaust on an MGB I did for a guy once. It made that somewhat under powered MG sound bad ass. I also changed the cam and put Weber carbs on it, so it was only 'somewhat' under powered.
That's a gorgeous photo. Like you, I just love when I get a beauty. The difference between me and a real photographer is the number of 'blows' I get :)
Yeah the Cobalts were sleepers! A couple guys locally were actually racing and beating Vette’s so a lot of people didn’t understand the power those things had stock never mind with a bit of a tune and stuff.
Mine had a nice K&N short ran intake, a catless down pipe and a custom exhaust. I had a friend just tune it a tiny bit to adjust the air fuel ratio to account for the aftermarket intake and that’s about it. With the catless I often woke up the neighbors on a cold morning going to work lol.
What car are you referring to there, Mercedes?
The photography is fun but there are many pictures that don’t make it into my posts lol it’s okay though the memory cards can hold thousands of them so I don’t mind.
MGB a failed English car company. I worked on English Roadsters in my shop for a few years. It was night and weekend stuff, but I did quite a little of it.
That's a Triumph TR-6 in the background. In the early 70s they were Corvette killers, too. I bought and sold a couple of them.
