    Schenck dyno

    Having a soft spot in my heart for old equipment I could not resist picking up this 1968 Schenck Dyno.
    Came out of a VW dealership long ago and is very well preserved. Check out the Type 1 fuel gauge, parking brake handle, OE oil pres switch, and Swiss Jaquet stopwatches.

    Going into our showroom with a 911 motor bolted to it and much more likely to dispense espressos than ever measuring HP again.

    Check out that muffler!

    I'm guessing that motor was throwing oil judging by the operators hair.

    Awesome.

    Thanks Chuck

    Now THAT is pretty cool Frank. Enough to make me divert on my next trip to the Valley of the Sun.

    You mean have your truck... and 10-12 friends. The thing weighs a ton. Literally.

    Vintage racing isn't what it used to be.
    How they consider a 2010 550hp Mustang with traction control a vintage car and why it's placed in Grp 8 is beyond me. My little 914 had nothing for that guy. He was just toying with us.

    "If it's to new for all the Vintage racing series it hasn't been built yet" Write a check and race.
