[Fot] A.R.E. TR6 HS on Speed Reality Show "HARD PARTS"

[Walter Hollowell]

These shows have very little to do with reality. The sad thing is that I
don't think you would actually have to have all the fake drama to have an
interesting auto repair shop show. Hell, just hang around my garage most any
evening or weekend when I'm not racing and you can see plenty of real drama.
"No Dear, that is not a new engine block, racing camshaft, expensive tool,
race tires, etec.etc.etc." Now that's reality!!

						Vapor Locked

The show designs a heat shield for 1972 TVR that has a TR6 engine in it that
has a vapor lock problem...he goes thru the process of a mock-up card board
model template and then having one hand fabed from alum that looks almost
identical to ours......long story short the close up when they instal it on
the car its not the alum one he had hand fabed but is clearly our stainless
steel one because you can see the the "E" of the "ARE" logo.

BTW, the original design for this Heat Shield was borrowed from an aluminum
one that IRV KOREY had on his TR6 from the early 70s. We refined the design
and changed the material to Stainless Steel and put it on production
equipment.  THANKS IRV!
