Re: My Car's New Trick



 
Hi Mark,
 
Yes I remember your '64 Savoy, haven't seen it for awhile, was wondering what happened to it. As for the gas we buy at the pump, 89, 91, & 93 oct. unleaded, don't worry bout' it to much. You live near me, and you know we can have multiple cruises everyday 7 days a week, and a half dozen shows on weekends. It doesn't keep anyone home unless you're over 11 to 1 compression. Our area use to take the ethanol out for the summer but now it's E10 all the time. All our cars are different, gotta treat 'em a little different by the way they behave. I have to laugh sometimes, when we park at a cruise and the first thing we do is open our hoods, not to show off, everyone there has seen our junk, it's too let the heat out.
 
I'm in your town often on Thursday nights at Goodies and Friday nights at Mcdonalds, I moved from Westport, up in Shelton now, say hello next time I'm parked.
 
Nick T.

Mark and Nick, another Mark here. I live in Milford and have a '64 Savoy replica Greenwich Police car, maybe you've seen it. I've seen Nick's '63 a few times. I converting to a 383/push button from a 6/ 3 speed. All this talk of gas troubles has got me worried. I want to go completely stock, but how will it run on the crap gas? Hoping to be on road next year. Mark Wilson

Yes Mark now I remember we spoke. Your '59 I believe I have several photos of, you are RMBR-WN correct. My black car received an invitation to Greenwich but I've since sold it, I may attend as a spectator.
 
Thanks...Nick

Nick,
I believe we met at the Sikorsky car show last year. I am restoring a 62 Sport Fury convertible, I also have a 59 sport fury convertible, that I am taking to the Greenwich car show in June. Stop by if you plan to attend

Mark,
 
Good point on storage, I might give it a try next season. Have we met over the years, Marcus Dairy, Curries, I know most all the guys from the Danbury area and every so often I do the Woodbury Lions Show, what do you drive.

Nick,

I am from Woodbury Ct and have purchased the race fuel from RT Layton in New Milford several times, I have used it and all my old cars, it is Sunoco 110 octane with Lead 
I have also bought and used un-leaded Sunoco Race Fuel that has reduced ethanol levels to store my newer cars over the winter with no issues
 This fuel will last longer than normal pump gas.

Gary & others,
 
Well most everyone knows CT. is not one of the top 10 places to live anymore. I am not surprised at the cost of this fuel since it's always been our normal. Back in 2002 when I bought my Fury Sunoco ethanol free gasoline was $8.00 at the pump for Sunoco at this same Fairfield station. What does surprise me is the low cost some of you have in other states. Here in CT. most of our fuel arrives by ship in the port of New Haven or Bridgeport. CT allows a destination charge from the port storage to the dealer, ie. mileage.
This morning I checked with Pure Fuel Gas Stations and they list 14 distributors of ethanol free gasoline. I checked each of the 14 stations and also learned that these gasoline also contains lead, which I did not know.
 
Happy Mother's Day fuel prices;
                                                                            Octane               Price per gal.
Berlin                 Shell                                         110                      9.99

Living with our vintage cars and ethanol. Again I would like to see a conversion unit made with a reliable electric fuel pump to fit our 62-65 gas tanks making our cars as reliable as our daily drivers.

Nick,
The price of that fuel seems beyond reason; have you asked the attendant if it is selling?  Octane degrades over time and I would think the fuel would not perform as advertised with RON/MON pump rating.

Mighty steep, but good ol' American capitalism at work!  Charge what the traffic will bear. 

Somebody must be buyin' it or the price would come down.

I would like to see someone come up with a modern electric fuel pump that would fit into out 62-65 fuel tanks as new cars have to deal with E10 fuel. Here in CT. my Sunoco station sells non-ethanol fuel at the pump, $15.00 per gallon.
