SEXY ROD ENDS FROM SUMMIT RACING
Mar 21st
When it comes to building a custom suspension, rod ends have it over ordinary bushings. They’re stronger, offer a much wider range of adjustment, and provide nearly zero deflection so those suspension adjustments stay put.
Summit Racing reckons that you can’t get a better rod end than FK JMX/JMXL Series Rod Ends. These three-piece rod ends have heat-treated steel alloy bodies with zinc-plated and chromate-treated races for corrosion resistance.
The balls are hard chrome-plated 52100 steel for excellent wear and durability. Some JMX/JMXL ends are made with a self-lubricating PTFE liner that is chemically bonded to the inner diameter of the race. More >

FUNKY CHICKENS, PRICELESS ASTONS AND A STABLE THAT WASN’T A STABLE – THE STORY OF JOHN OGIER
Mar 21st
STEVE HOLE tells the story of JOHN OGIER
[standfirst] Sir John Lionel Eardley Ogier goes under the radar these days but deserves recognition for his contribution to British motorsport and the automotive industry in general. One thing is certain, despite his importance information is hard to come by, but Sir John Ogier sure was a fascinating man, with an amazing story. We are indebted to Ogier’s son, James for his invaluable help with this feature.
Ogier was born in India on October 23, 1920 (an interesting fact is that his brother, Michael was born on the same day in 1921), but was educated More >

MARCELO GANDINI, LEGENDARY AUTOMOTIVE DESIGNER, RIP
Mar 14th
We were very sad to hear about the death of legendary designer, Marcelo Gandini this week, aged 85.
Marcelo Gandini photographed in 1976, while working for Nuccio Bertone (unknown photographer – Wikipedia).
STEVE HOLE gives a potted career rundown of one of the greatest designers to pick up a pencil.
Gandini was the son of an orchestral conductor and working as an interior designer, when he approached another great designer, Nuccio Bertone, for a job in 1963. Bertone was impressed but was dissuaded from giving young Marcelo a job by his then chief designer (yet another great), Giorgetto Giugiaro who didn’t like him.

GROUP ONE PROPSHAFT FROM BURTON POWER
Mar 14th
Burton Power can now offer a single-piece propshaft based on the Group 1 version to fit all standard RS2000s and Escort Mk1/2 using a Rocket or five-speed gearbox and an English or Atlas axle.
By using a larger diameter tubing and not incorporating the centre bearing, this single-piece propshaft is much stronger than the original two-piece item. It is suitable as a direct replacement for the original prop or for competition use
It is a high-quality item manufactured in the UK, not a cheap inferior import. Most imports use rather crude forgings which are heavier and the tubing specification can often be More >
