ou know how it goes, when you find yourself in someone’s neck-of-the-woods and you can’t help but pop in unannounced for a 5 minute pitstop just to say hello. Somehow that 5 minutes turns into 30 and then, before you know it, its been an hour or more?

Well thats just what happened, one fine day a few weeks ago, when we were in Anaheim dropping off a motorcycle part at a machine shop just around the corner from Benton Performance.

John Benton works on old Porsches and is THE DUDE for 912 tuning at his shop in Anaheim California. He and his loyal crew of specialist at Benton Performance have single handedly turned Zuffenhausen’s air-cooled flat four cylinder engine motorcar into being regarded as a sexy beast in its own right, not merely the “kid brother” in the shadow of the ever beloved six-cylinder 911, at least not after John and the crew have their way with one. Of course, Benton Performance knows their way around those too, not to mention 356s, one of which John races in the tempestuous La Carrera Panamericana. Benton has the magic touch, from full restorations to fine-tuning distributors to twin spark conversions to performance exhausts to… you get the idea. But don’t take our word for it, let the full garage and lot of loyal customer’s cars waiting their turn on the car lift do the talking!

It’s no surprise that some of our favorite cars at the Luftgekühlt shows over the years have been Benton Built. “The Beater”, comes to mind. Kevin Lynch’s bahama yellow “Bahammer”. The list goes on and on, and we are excited to see what his crew will bring out the Luftgekühlt 4 event coming up on May 7th. Tickets to the show are now available on luftgekuhlt.com

Huge thanks to the guys for taking the time to show us around the shop!

Nous avons reçu Clara pour son stage de 4 ème de découverte en entreprise.

Du coup, elle a participé aux derniers essais de la 912 de 1965 avant livraison.

Mais elle a aussi participé à la préparation et au nettoyage de la 912 Targa qui prend la route cette semaine.

Nous avions vendu ce Karmann Ghia coupé de 1970 il y a quelques années.

Il est de retour pour un maître cylindre qui grippe.

Du coup, remplacement de la pièce défectueuse par un autre MC double circuits de qualité ATE

Et pour finir, une marque que l’on voit rarement chez nous !!

Il s’agit d’un club Ferrari qui nous a rendu visite lors d’un rallye dans notre région.

Beaucoup de rouge, mais pas que… en tout cas, beaucoup de cylindres et des beaux bruits !

THE MOMO HERITAGE SERIES LAUNCH – DTLA

Un petit tour à Los Angeles pour inaugurer le volant Momo Signature Magnus Walker.

Merci Stanceworks

It took little time for the MOMO namesake to become a staple in the world of motorsports after Gianpiero Moretti launched the brand in 1964. By the end of the same year, it was a MOMO wheel that steered John Sutrees’s Ferrari to a Formula One world title. 50 years later, and a trip around any vintage race paddock will yield more MOMO wheels than any other, and it’s with good reason.

However, between then and now, the company has had its ups and downs. Following its immense success in the 1980s and through to the mid 1990s, the company was sold, slipping through the hands of the enthusiast and into the clutches of the corporate world. Now, however, the company returns to its roots, and in more ways than one. While the company has returned to the hands of true auto enthusiasts, just as it was born, it has also gathered members of the community to celebrate its latest line: the Heritage Series.

In celebration of their past successes, we joined MOMO in downtown Los Angeles for an evening of cars, drinks, and of course, wheels, for both steering and the road.

Mounted to the wall of the Hudson Loft, perched on the top floor of one of Los Angeles’s many warehouses were MOMO’s most historic signature steering wheels. Ranging from the 1970s up to their most recent Magnus Walker signature wheel, the lineup showed not only their design ideology, but their prowess too, having catered to and worked with some of the greatest names in racing history.

A bit further down were the newest MOMO offerings: the Heritage Series. With designs pulled from icons like the Prototipo and the Futura, we can we’re incredibly excited for high quality steering wheels that cater to a more classic taste.

Like all of MOMO’s steering wheels, the Heritage Series is also handmade in Italy, just as they were more than 50 years ago. A special highlight of the evening was seeing the process in person, with one of the MOMO craftsmen demonstrating his talents and showcasing the work the company is known for.

Also on display was one of MOMO’s new road wheels: a two-piece take on one of the company’s most famous racing designs. Seeing them showcased on an E30 M3 leads us to excitement, and we’re eager to see where the company’s coming designs are headed.

And if the assortment of wheels and drinks weren’t enough, the company of some incredible automobiles was warmly welcomed. An assortment of Ferraris, a Rod Emory Porsche, and even our own StanceWorks “Parts Car” E28 were invited inside. On the curb sat a few million dollars worth of vehicles, ranging in scale from a Pagani to our friend Dorian Valenzuela from DV Mechanics’s Alfa Giulia.

All-in-all, it’s hard to find a better way to spend a Monday evening, and with some exciting new stuff heading to market, we’re thrilled to share the latest from MOMO.
