      The Trans-Am and Corvette Chassis

      I am unable to find my copy of this book by Steve Smith. I am wondering if anyone would know where to find another copy or perhaps have a scan?

      I have been trying that link but it doesn't work anymore. He also had the Herb Adams/**** Guldstrand shootout article and that doesn't work either.

      Something is up with that page....I can see it for a split second when I first open the link and then it goes to a blank white page.

      or maybe my computer doesn't like something on that page and is blocking it...I dunno.

      I am having the same split second problem you are having. I wonder why it is being blocked from some computers.

      No problems with IE6, even the work internet filters aren't getting in the way.

      Maybe, maybe not. Other versions of IE may not behave as nicely. Don't know what I've got at home or whether it will work.

      Firefox Mac here.
      I'll see if I can locate links to each page directly.

      I had just made up a Word Document containing the entire article. If anyone is interested I can email it to you so you can easily print it out rather than printing each page induvidually.

      I saved all of the links in an email to myself for later viewing, but having it all in one place would be nice.
