Our top is a Lemans style. We haven't made any aluminum hard tops that are the street style.

Hello David, I'd be interested in the 427 top. Is that the fabric only, or fabric and bows?
And when you say "original", do you mean original original, or original Kirkham ?

Original, original. We don't have any bows. They are not hard to make, however.

Either way is fine. Paypal or the card. Just call tomorrow.

One 427 harness left...unless I find another one. There are literally boxes I haven't opened in, well, years and years.

Hi David,

Do you have a billet throw out arm, rod end, external slave, slave mount and throw out bearing with slight dents to change over from internal McCloud t.o. bearing? And whatever happened to the light weightflywheel for a dual disc clutch assembly?

I will look tomorrow for a scratch and dent throw out bearing assembly. We finished the clutch and I have been driving on it in the billet prototype for quite some time. It is a thrill to drive. A little jumpy, but down shifting is a dream with that light of a flywheel.

We can make more billet SOHC valve covers. The problem is the cost. The billet is $350/valve cover

They do polish up like a mirror though.
