SPF lowered footbox w/ under car exhaust

I have the undercar exhaust and dropped floor. No problems. Sorry no pics underneath but it is very nicely done with stainless panels for insulation

The BRG looks awesome on your street roadster!

Thanks for posting that pix. I guess with the roll hoop and hood scoop it's really not a "street version", but I dig it. Hope I am far enough away from you geographically that you won't mind if I copy that look one day. I was just thinking about BRG about 5AM this morning while the sugarplums still danced in my head.

And thanks for feedback too, Mitch.

Crash, I do believe there has been a change in the floor and pedal area starting this month. Dennis is suppose to have pictures coming. The purpose was for more foot room at the pedals. I'm not sure how this will effect under car exhaust.

We have SPF #2858, which is a factory British Racing Green roadster, with tan leather. No roll bar, full bumpers.
The undercar exhaust is wonderful - no observed clearance issues and the "sound" is mild enough with exhausts exiting at rear to make conversation OK, even at speed.
As well, no "burned legs" issues.
Would be happy to mail you some photos for your files -

Here is a pic of my under car exhaust. It exits before the rear wheels, but is still routed underneath. I like the set-up alot.

You need the scoop to get extra room for the engine as well as let heat out when the car is turned off.

Concurrence here too! The BRG on a street version - and it's a street version in my opinion if it doesn't have side pipes - looks great. The black roll hoop and the scoop are reasonably subtle, but 'mean' looking additions that should be there.
Cheers,
Glen

Oops, apologies! Vineyard green, nor BRG. There's a significant difference.

There are a number of "mix and match" options for the SPF Roadster. You can have the S/C riveted hood scoop, a moulded in hood scoop, etc. The roll bar (single, double or race style) is optional in bright or black and the bumpers can be the full overider/hoop setup, overiders only or quick-jacks in bright or black. We will make the car the way you want.

The dash can be done either the roadster style with tach and speedo on either side of the steering column or the S/C pattern dash. The number of combinations is rather large.

Point is you can pick what you really want.
