Are you doing these as LJ22s, or 12DLs? What date code are they getting?
I would be very interested, especially in the handles which I have never seen on ebay. Only the two piece straight ones.
On an entirely different topic Nick, how about the pipework for the later 289 McCord type coolant tank? The curved pipe connecting the hose to this, with the tee joint?

LJ22's with the cast curved saddle on top to fit the round tube frames.
What date code do you want Roger?
I went to post a couple of pics tonight and my picture host won't let me upload.
Anything you need I can make or get.

Somewhere I have the original jack, grease gun and clips. The grease gun was never used and I tried to use the jack once. Since it won't go under the car if you have a flat I took it out and replaced it with a scissors jack. I didn't know there was a tool kit when I purchased the car and I wouldn't have really cared at the time.

I'm not sure the jack even fits with aired up tires. They go from 5.5" to 11.75" tall. I just made up a couple of extra tool kit bags although I wouldn't be checking the completeness or correctness of a tool kit before I just drove my newly acquired Cobra either.;)

I'd guess at 1962/3. I don't know the format offhand - I'll check.
Let me know when the pictures go up. Got a price yet?
The pipe I'm thinking of is the curved coolant pipe in the attached pic.
Know what would be great? A repro of the big aluminium wing nut for the spare wheel!!!!

I made a couple of those tubes. John Olsen has the FFR car with one of mine on it. That's funny you mention the spare nut, I dropped one off at my foundry when I picked up the last batch of jacks. I also have the big washers and stud for the nut. Keep the suggestions coming, I guess I'm doing OK with them.
