I have a 1969 in Oregon. I spoke with the guy you purchased these from and considered buying the bucks myself. Your welcome to check out pictures and ask for help if i can.

I have listed a couple...

Please update with a little more details and if there is some fair resolution. I am a recent FV owner and also in the NW so i am both vulnerable and likely excited about having decent parts suppliers...

Please do. I'm likely good for a set

No, i bought in Bremerton Washington outside seattle. It was raced for a number of years with SOVREN by a gentleman out of Spokane who I hear was active and pretty competetive.

Do you have any other pics of the lift so i can better understand how it lfts the car up and down. The outside braces in this pic appear to be fixed and the inside frame appears to pivot. However, I...

I made the road trip today to pick up the RCA FV. It seems to be in pretty good shape. Its parked in the shop and ready to remove the body panels and start in with a deep cleaning before I address...

Next week I plan to join sovren, iscca, and the cascade sport car club so i could go through their novice program.

I am open to suggestions, my real goal is to whatever i need to do to be able to...

Thanks for the info. I have been googling both drivers and finding a few things.
Good stuff....

I just bought a 1969 RCA Formula Vee. Not sure if i should post here or under vintage? Looking for history or whatever i can find out about the RCA mfg cars?

I'm starting to get a decent idea of which cars are production and not only giving me a greater chance to repurchase replacements or upgrades; but also be common enough for me to gain prep advice...

As Im shopping for which FV I pull the trigger on next month, obviously price, location, condition, and extras all are things that I'm evaluating. The other consideration that come to mind as I see...

I did recently buy a two stroke car that I plan to autox, but I don't think it will work well or may not even be able to run at PIR. I'm thinking I may want a FV or FST to play a few times at NW...

This is my suspicion that there may not be other FST in the Nw to compete with.

I may have to default to the FV to have a competetiv class to play.

I think you miss read the previous post. What I said was the guy i bought it from had two cars, the other one was a f500. So I'm guessing he was somewhat familiar with the hobby. I like the looks of...

I don't think so, it's come up on this forum but the guy I bought it from knew the original owner and said he raced it in the NW in the early 80's and then later solo. It shows a A/M race class on...

Perfect, thank you. Sound like I may that way vs a FV

I've looked through a few threads and didn't seem to find the answer.

I've seen the FV running around Portland PIR but don't know much about FST

I dont have any good pics and the car is at my shop a ways away from the house.

I guess my basic question is what are some of you running? Model and disc diameter. And what do you use for brake...

Not sure about size, the rotars only look to be around 6-7". The car is still a mystery, I believe it's a F440 that ran in the early 80's in in the northwest. It now has a arctic cat 550 in it but...

i purchased the Tilton 74 master cylinder based on recommendations on an earlier thread. Now it's time to overhaul my full break system. I have a good local source (Ott Friction in Portland) that I...

Interesting, I've never tried doing that before. But perhaps its worth a shot. Just heat it up with a heat gun and smoothly bend it? I can visualize bending the primary corners, but have a harder...

The Tilton Series 74 or 75 looks like it will work good for me. Thanks for the heads up. I'll probably need to use the remote reservoir kits to keep the profile low to the front cowling. But that...

Thanks Guys,

Not fully concerned about meeting specs other than identifying what the chassis and year mfg it may have been. I agree it may likely be a late 70 or early 1980 generation. It does...

I could use some help figuring out what I've purchased. I'm thinking it is a F440. It came with the original Chaparral engine, but now is powered by a Arctic Cat 550 twin. I have cleaned it up and...
