From the desk of the President…
How's your summer been going. Have you accomplished most of your tasks that were planned for
your family, your home and your car.
Well, summer is winding down, kids are back in
school, the weather is very enjoyable, and the JAGM
Concours is right around the corner. It's time for
JAGM to showcase our Club, our cars and our Marque. Quite a few have been working very hard to
get everything ready for our biggest weekend of the
year. We've got Jaguar enthusiasts coming in from
other JCNA Clubs in the NC Region. Let's show them some great hospitality throughout
the weekend.
After the Concours on Saturday the eighth, don't forget about Battle of the Britt's on Sunday the ninth at Freedom Hill Park in Sterling Heights. There are a couple hundred British
cars together in our backyard. Later in the month is Mueller's Orchard, Apple of Your Eye
& Classic Car Showcase and a Fall Cruise with several other British Car Clubs. This is our
busiest month of the year.
To give some people a break after their hard work, we will be looking for a new Concours
Chairman for next year, along with someone to pick up a major portion of the Hospitality
Suite arrangements. Take a look at what is going on during the weekend and see if you
have something to offer. Let's keep our Concours something special.
Bob
Member’s Corner.
I keep saying that this is YOUR club, and this is YOUR newsletter. So putting this statement
to work, I am going to start at the smallest number in the current membership book, and
work my way up, interviewing each member. This will go a long way toward helping new
folk like myself, get to know the members who were vital in forming and shaping our club.
Each of us has an interesting story to tell, pictures to share, and given the chance, I think
this could be some fun. So with that said, let’s speak to members number 6.
Richard Orlowski...
This is your Club.
One of the true pleasures of writing for the Indicator is getting to meet our members of
this fine club. We are held together buy a common thread of a passion for Jaguars. Some
might call us “gear heads” and that’s just fine. I believe that Richard Orlowski is comfortable with that designation. Having joined the club around 67 or 68, he had a passion for
Jaguars ever since one drove by him with the perfect 3.8 exhaust note. He was hooked.
Rick ran across a Navy fellow who brought one up here from California and sold it in fear
that he couldn’t afford to maintain it. Rick went on to drive that 1964 E-Type 280,000
miles before he tore it down for restoration. He also has acquired a 1972 E-Type V-12 and
a 1976 XJS Coupe. Unfortunately, all three are sitting in storage awaiting him to retire from
Ford Motor where he works as an engineer. Time is one issue in our lives we can’t always
control.
Richard spoke fondly of the early days of the club; names like Joe Mulholland, Armand Peterson, and Bob Nicholson came to mind as just great people who had a large influence on
the club activities. He has only missed attending two of the Concours Shows. That is a
great record, and of course he will be there this year also. When asked his favorite site for
the show, the Botsford was a quick reply, though he has no issues with the Hilton. The
Botsford just had a certain charm and as the proprietor had a passion for Jaguars also, he
went out of his way to make the facility a little better when our club held their activities
there.
I appreciate the time Richard took for his interview from his schedule. Unfortunately, his
cars weren’t available for photos as they are in storage. But I am certain we will see them in
future shows when he is able to find the time to finish their loving restoration.
It can be said that...
As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria.
In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E.
coli) -bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.
However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting. Remember: Water = Poop, Wine = Health
Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of shX!.
There is no need to thank me for this valuable information: I'm doing it as a public service.
Wednesday, was the competitive Rally and a casual sight seeing tour
to the quaint town of Nashville IN. A lunch of local Indiana favorites
was hosted at The Salt Creek Golf Retreat. The afternoon had a visit
to the Connor Prairie Museum Village that represents a village in the
1870's. Come evening, we enjoyed square dancing, a barbeque dinner and presentation of Rally awards.
Thursday was a day at the Indianapolis Speedway. Some took bus
tour and walking tours through the pit & track area and timing pagoda. I participated in the Slalom competition. The JCNA standard
course requires 3 laps to complete. The first lap is a neck-down dogbone shape. The second lap is a figure-8. The third lap is an oval.
You must stop in the stopping box at the end of the course. Everyone got 5 complete runs through the course. On my first day ever of
Slalom, I was happy to break under 50 seconds and get second place
in my class. One heavily modified E-type and current record holder
managed to come in under 40 seconds. We had a nice lunch at the
Brickyard CC and then went back to the track for our actual lap on the
track, and photo, crossing the famous yard of bricks at the finish line.
Following that was a quick visit to the Indy 500 Museum. That evening was a very elaborate cocktail party, presentation of Slalom
awards and an informal tour of the antique Union Railroad Station.
Friday, all Concours cars were staged and received a motorcycle escort to Monument Circle where we held the display and judging.
About 130 Jaguars were on display from all over the US as well as Ontario, Canada and Mexico. The circle was crowded with spectators
from the nearby office buildings and shops, enjoying the scenery we
were creating. The Concours and judging was well organized and efficient. The evening cocktail party and banquet was in the old Union
Railroad Station Grand Hall dating back to 1888. What an impressive
setting, and the building made our cars feel young again. The banquet guest speaker was a legendary Jaguar race car driver.
Concours trophies were presented that represented the new Jaguar
Leaper. From Michigan, Adam and Susan Gucfa earned first place in
class D4, Bob & Darlene Stevenson earned first place in class S3, Bob
Matejek earned third place in class C7 and Dennis and Janet Weglarz
earned fourth in class C5. In overall scoring, George Keller of Ohio
was the top Driven car with a perfect 10.0 with his XJR. Ron Gardner
of Virginia was the top Championship car with a perfect 100.0 with
his 1953 XK-120. The Popular Vote went to Rob van Westenberg of
Colorado and it was announced as being for his 1956 E-Type. The
rumbles from the audience said that is really rare to have an E-type in
1956.
Overall, I had a great time and am glad that I went for the entire
week. In two years, the 2009 Jaguar Challenge Championship will
probably be in San Antonio, Texas, but that will not be firm until the
next AGM in Pittsburgh in March of 2008. Next year there will be a
Western States Meet in Western Colorado at the beginning of August.
I'm thinking about it. Bob M.
Fall Drive #2
A SPECIAL TREAT
In June of this year Ilene and I participated on a Spring Drive with “the Points and Condenser Preservation Society”/RiverTech Gathering, a group of mainly Ypsilanti-Ann Arbor enthusiasts. This drive took
us from the Ann Arbor area to Spring Arbor, a small community just west of Jackson. There we were the
‘guests’ of Lloyd and Judy Ganton, owners of one of the most interesting private museums we have seen.
Mrs. Ganton has her section and Mr. Ganton has his; hers is early Americana, dolls and other ‘girlie’
things. His part is “Macho,” i.e., manly things like cars, bikes, snowmobiles, horns, gauges, machines
and largest selection restored peddle-cars I’ve ever seen. You know, things that make noise or go or
both!
A major focus of the museum is the number of cars and other manufactured items from Jackson
and the surrounding area. In the early twentieth century Jackson was Michigan’s first Motor City due to
the fact that twenty-two different automobiles were manufactured there. Examples of thirteen of these
cars have been ‘rediscovered’ by Lloyd Ganton and are part of his collection. Also, there is a complete
room-shrine-collection dedicated to Coca-Cola memorabilia.
After viewing this, Ilene and I felt that this was such a unique and outstanding collection that we
wanted to share it with The Jaguar Club. Lloyd Ganton takes a very personal & active role with visiting
groups and a scheduled appointment has been made with him to view the collection on Saturday, October 20, 2007. (It was one of the few dates available)
Visiting this collection will be the focus of the second Fall Driving tour. This will take place rain or
shine, with or without Jaguars. It is definitely a family friendly place! It is open to anyone in the club and
any friends with whom they might want to share this experience. The drive will be easy, should be colorful and interesting. People will travel at, pretty much, their own pace. Maps and mileage intervals will be
provided and arrival times for certain stops will be given. You may choose (or not choose) to make them.
We do need at least fifteen people for this opportunity.
After the Museum, we will have a lunch/early dinner stop and should be home by late afternoon. Freeway
driving for the ride home will be optional! Please be able to give us a rough count by the October meeting or RSVP to:
gjhjag@aol.com_ (mailto:gjhjag@aol.com) or 248-747-5338.
Many thanks, Gary & Ilene
BUILDING THE XJ-13
Mr. Paul Straub was the guest speaker at our August Jag Club meeting, and he gave a
Power-Point photo presentation called “BUILDING the XJ- 13”. It detailed the creation of the
replica, 1966 XJ- 13, Le Mans Jaguar. Paul is a retired chassis designer from Ford Motor
Company in Detroit and saw the original, one of a kind, XJ- 13 at the Ford Glass House in
1989. He was looking to build some sort of exotic car and had already built, from scratch,
a Lotus- 7 race car. There were already too many Shelby Cobras so Paul decided to build an
XJ- 13 replica. The original XJ- 13 was also displayed at our Jag Concours held at the Edsel
Ford Estate in 1990. Everyone who saw it was amazed by its beautiful lines, raw elegance,
and brutal sex appeal.
Armed with a fat check book, intense desire, and the tenacity of pit bull, Paul began the
project in 1992. Two brothers at a company called Predator Performance in Florida were
also smitten with the looks of the XJ- 13 and recreated a fiberglass body from photos, dimensional data, and (as I understand it) drawings extrapolated from a scale model of the
car. Paul found the brothers and began writing those checks. The original car was a monocoque bodied car (a stressed aluminum body which we on this side of the pond refer to as
a unibody). In short, there is no chassis, as we know it, in the original car. As Paul tells it,
the engine and transaxle are an integral part of the original car, supporting much of the
rear suspension, wheels, brakes; etc. The guys at Predator Performance were able to replicate an incredible fiberglass copy of the body, but fiberglass panels are not as rigid and
self-supporting as metal panels would be. Therefore, a real chassis and support members
and brackets had to be fabricated to provide rigidity to the body, door panels, hood, et al,
and a rigid frame was needed to hang an engine, inverted Pantera transaxle, and suspension on it. All that without losing the internal and external esthetics of the car. Additionally, Paul’s planned V-12 engine would have one third more horse power than the original
450 h.p. engine. In short, the outside of the new XJ-13 was the same car, but under that
beautiful fiberglass skin lurked an entirely different animal. Let it never be said that engineers aren’t ARTISTS and MAGICIANS, too.
Paul brought the car to Michigan in 2000. Via the Jag Club of Michigan, Paul found what
he and I call our resident engineering genius, Matt Nold. (We do not use the term, GENIUS,
lightly.) Matt has a garage/machine shop “to die for”, and if Matt can’t make it, nobody
can! Matt and Paul’s combined talents (and let’s not forget that check book) allowed them
to find sources for parts or make parts from whole cloth as it were. The original XJ-13 was
a right hand drive car but Paul switched his to a left hand drive. He added larger brakes to
this car and that forced the wheel sizes up to 17 inch wheels instead of the 15 inch wheels
on the ‘old girl’. One of the little details that impressed me was not such a little detail
when you think about it. Each of the 17 inch wheels was held on with 5 lug nuts--not the
knock-off hubs as on the original car. So, to make the car look authentic, Matt designed
and built a hub/knock-off that hid the lugs completely. A great touch! Through associates
in the UK, Paul was able to locate drawings for the original steering wheel, and thanks to
that ever shrinking check book, an exact replica wheel was born.
Paul found a big chunk of aluminum in a vacant lot or some place and brought it to
Matt. He told Matt it was a raw V-12 engine block and Matt believed him. Many Ben
Franklins and several months later, Matt made a 700 horse engine out of it. Anyone who
has tried to modify a car by adding something in an engine compartment that wasn’t suppose to be there, knows how frustrating that can be. There’s a cascading effect, that is to
say, you move one thing over one half inch to make something fit and then you have to
move something else two inches in another direction and so on. A person has to deal with
clearance and interference, but in the end the thing must function and look good. And so,
like a chess player, an engineer is always having to think several moves ahead.
Paul intended to end his presentation with the sound of his XJ-13 engine revving-up and
roaring away in the distance. Unfortunately, the computer sound system did not cooperate.
For those of you who were not at the presentation or for those who have never seen the
car, I urge you to go to YouTube.com and punch in XJ-13 at Sebring. You will see and
hear Paul’s car zooming around the track at 100 mph, not as fast as he would like to have
gone, but as fast as rules would allow. It’s about a seven minute video and it’s a great
memory for me because Matt and I drove the car and showed it in Dublin, OH and at Mad
Dogs in Kalamazoo.
Many of us dream big things, but few of us take hold of the dream and make it happen.
Over a period of 13 years, Paul Straub and Matt Nold brought something incredibly beautiful to the world. I also lusted after that XJ- 13 when I first saw it at the Edsel Ford Estate,
but, because of Paul and Matt, I got to touch, ride, hear and smell a car that was perhaps
as good or better than the original.
It occurred to me what a remarkable club we have here in Michigan and what a talent
pool, too. For a few short years, three of our club members have provided us with replicas
of some of Jaguars’ most fabulous cars. We’ve had Dick Harms’ wonderful XKSS, Mike Bailey’s gorgeous D-Type and Paul’s XJ-13, all in various shades of British Racing Green. The
three cars appeared together at several of our Concours events and always stole the show.
Now two are sold, but the XKSS and our fond memories remain. The XJ-13 was sold in 2006
and it was resold at auction for $253,000! The car has since disappeared. As Paul Straub
said, “I had the fun of building it and showing it; now I want something I can drive.” Thanks
a million, Paul, for fulfilling my dream and many thanks to that fat check book!

Who’DA’Thunkit…
The same fine Michigan State Police Department who wrecked my driving record and
forced me into high risk insurance, is relied upon be police agencies across the country,
Canada, Guam and other locations for their evaluations of new police cruisers for their next
purchase. I am sure many of you have seen the “Skid Pad” they have for training and
evaluation, I believe off of I-96 towards Lansing. Wouldn’t it be a thrill to get a chance to
take our cars out there and push them to their limits? Perhaps we could approach them as
a site for a Slalom Course. Just an idea…..
ICE Campaign - "In Case of Emergency"
We all carry our mobile phones with names and numbers stored in its memory but nobody, other than ourselves, knows which of these numbers belong to our closest family or
friends. If we were to be involved in an accident or were taken ill, the people attending us
would have our mobile phone but wouldn't know who to call. Yes, there are hundreds of
numbers stored but which one is the contact person in case of an emergency? Hence the
"ICE" (In Case of Emergency) campaign. The concept of "ICE" is catching on quickly. It is a
method of contact during emergency situations. As cell phones are carried by the majority
of the population, all you need to do is store the number of a contact person or persons
who should be contacted during emergency under the name "ICE"
(In Case Of Emergency). The idea was thought up by a paramedic who found that when he
went to the scenes of accidents, there were always mobile phones with patients, but they
didn't know which number to call. He therefore thought that it would be a good idea if
there was a nationally recognized name for this purpose. In an emergency situation, Emergency Service personnel and hospital Staff would be able to quickly contact the right person by simply dialing the number you have stored as "ICE.
"
For more than one contact name simply enter ICE1, ICE2, and ICE3, etc. A great idea that
will make a difference! Let's spread the concept of ICE number in our Mobile phones today! Submitted by Kris Wise.
This month’s Tech Tip.
Recently while driving my 03 X-Type into a hard turn, I felt the rear of the car do it’s own
little dance. When I got home and lifted the car up, I found that if I grasped the rear tire by
the top and bottom and applied some force, they would pivot in and out. Crawling my big
self under the chassis revealed that the “lower control arms” had lost their bushings and
needed replacement. Lowering the car back onto the garage floor, I also noticed the wheels
both leaned in at the top of the tire, another tell-tale sign I guess. Having a general contempt for dealerships service departments, I decided to do the work myself.
Buying part number C2S39585 (same for either side of the car) was the easiest part of the
job. But I was really surprised that it took me longer to get the wheels off the hub than it
did to install the new parts once I sprayed the bolts down with penetrating oil. A 15mm
socket and ratchet is all you need to do the job, and a strong arm. Of course I loaded lots
of grease on the bolts, as I anticipate having to do the same job again in a few years.
For those folks who are looking to lower the cost of driving our toys, another suggestion is
to consider Guys Garage in Northville, Mi. He allows you to have mail-order parts sent to
him (thanks to Little British Car Company) and you save a ton-O-bucks by taking the dealers service department high labor rate out of the picture. His phone number is 248-3493649. Give him a call as an alternative repair shop.
I don’t know if Gary
has one of these special torque measuring
tools. It’s a one size
almost fits all and can
double as a hammer.
