Oh yeah, your 14FF HE cover should be coming to you shortly. :wink1:
 
Not gonna let this one just sink down to the bottom of the page.

Ron, got more pics to share with us? I'd like to see pics of the casting process in the molds for those aluminum diff covers.
I'd also like to see more pics of anything and everything, namely more of those over-600 pics you have.

Thanks for all the additional pics! That Banshee is something else! I can't even imagine how exciting it would be to drive something like that. What do you know about it's engine?
 
Where can I get some of these tires?

Banshee

The Banshee has a all aluminum Olds 455 engine, As far as the tires goes i made a deal with Goodyear and bought there remaining stock, They quit making them a few years ago, So the only place to get them is threw me:bow:, Check back, I will post some cool old photos every day
 
Wow! Just found this post. Brings back a lot of memories. Hickey was way ahead of his times. Met James Garner a couple of times working movies - great guy, down to earth. Most "stars" spent all their off camera time in their trailers. He hung out with the truck drivers those of us working security.
 
Jimmy is a real nice person, I have spent a lot of time with him looking at my photos and talking about the old days racing, You know he had a stroke about 6 months ago, I was sitting in his kitchen in Brentwood while he was taking a nap, Thats the time he has his stroke, Sad day for me but he is doing better
