I feel the need to say....very tidy too.
One day, before too long....I'll be posting pictures of AP2289 in it's single-car garage, and it won't be a pretty sight. The garage, that is.
Incidentally, that template of your dashboard for Goldie that you sent me ....umm...a number of years ago, will soon be put to good use on a RHD Cobra.

Cheers,
Glen

BG Development makes calipers today that I'm off and on about. I still don't know their cost and they never answered my emails about a price list. Yours look great and if you don't use them, you know who to give first right of refusal to!

This one should hit pace this summer.
Been an American Picker on this lately.
Might be in Kingston after SAAC with gold car.
Will need to meet up....

Would love to see your CCX, admired it for years.

Hi Jeff, this one is going to be a street car, a clone of #2317 ? Instead of the T-10 why don't you go with a 5spd for a better highway cruise?

Tom

Great question. First the T10 is correct for the car. Using a 64 -289 five bolt block limits some fittment of new options.
A five speed would be nice but I think I prefer a fully functional period part.
Using a 3:31 rear should be fine at 70mph.

Thanks to Will Kooiman for the seats.
CCX seats will be a great add to this build.

Found correct alternator. Searching for plug ......
Of course it will work without plug but it would be welcome addition.

Hi Jeff,
You can get one from Connector Experts. They have an online ordering setup. Great people to work with.
