Up for bid is the Corvette Hood Support Safety Pin/Flag that will work on any 1953 through 1971 Corvette.  This is a great addition to any Corvette show car or daily driver and a great way to protect your investment.  The pin/flag will prevent the hood support from unlatching if blown by the wind or bumped by a spectator, judge or yourself.  This Safety Pin/Flag works great for Bloomington Gold, NCRS, NCCC, Show and Shine or any other form of judging. It will also keep your hood open when working under the hood in the garage. I started selling these at Corvette meets several years ago after watching a1971Corvette hood slam down and crack at a meet in Texas.  This pin is a smaller version of the “Remove Before Flight” pins used on Air Force aircraft. Don’t stick a bolt or screw driver through your hood support, use this durable high quality embroidered flag.  Simply slip the clevis pin in the hood support hole and place the hitch pin into the clevis pin all of which are interconnected for safety and convenience.  The red flag is easy to spot when you are ready to lower the hood. Buy with confidence from a 40 year Corvette enthusiast and restorer. If you have any questions please e-mail me I’ll be happy to answer them.  Shipping is via USPS Priority mail in the US and Canada and First Class International Mail to Australia and Europe.

The Tokyo motor show 2009 review, by Phil McNamara

Wed, 21 Oct 2009

Ch–ch–ch–changes: time to face the strain, presciently sang David Bowie looking forward to the 41st Tokyo Motor Show. Since the 40th show in 2007, the car world has changed economically, politically and technologically. Even the show itself has suffered a pitiful transformation, stripped to just the Japanese firms after the European and American car makers block voted with their feet and jilted the show to save cash.
