03-07-2024 05:27 PM - permalinkRiverside racerHello Dan, been a while so hope you are well?
I am looking to replicate the Trico windscreen washer bottle used on the narrow hip 427 cars. Have managed to buy the container (difficult to source but found one in the UK) But when I opened up the parcel it has the wrong lid! I am trying to find one, buy or loan OR a good pic of top and bottom. Can You possibly help me?
Best, Ross ross@riversideracers.com or tel. 2896870274 -
Hi Dan, I am doing a 289 slab side car with an alum body (via 1963 leaf spring car) I am just about to complete the car and have been looking for any websites or threads that would show me things like inner panels, correct engine compartments and on and on. could you help me with any of this? if you can my email is j.collins60@comcast.net thanks so much for
your time. Jim Collins -
10-05-2020 08:53 PM - permalinkDavid GrantDan, I stumbled across your posts on Club Cobra regarding Ford HP260 engines. I have the remains of Cobra 260 CSX2014, which you mentioned in one of your posts. I have been casually searching for obtainable parts, such as a Ford 260 engine block. I believe you mentioned it should have a casting number as C2OE-6015J. Are these the 100 competition engines Ford made for Shelby and Holman and Moody? I am also looking to find the correct casting numbers for a pair of 260 heads. And, I am looking for a T10 transmission, however, I believe the transmission for CSX 2014 may have had an aluminum tail housing. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, David Grant
