THANKS, Larry for posting the updated pics!

Guys, I have a silver/grey painted set of wire wheels coming, which I'll mount up to period Blockley 205-70VR15 blackwalls. I would love to get everyone's opinion of those vs the chrome wire wheels and Firestone whitewalls that are on the car right now. We'll post pix when those are on the car for all ya'll's comments

Thanks!

Thanks, Ross as always for your comments!

Ross is correct, SPF has a fresh air kit available now that is very similar to what I installed, but is actually easier to get in the car and hook up (after the car was built).

I have seen pictures of the kit factory-installed in new MKIIs, and it's complete

Thank you, Buzz!

However, the most credit goes to the passion of Ross Henry,
otherwise this car wouldn't exist. His enthusiasm, drive and sense of detail are a HUGE foundation to this product. Also to SPF for producing this car and Hillbank for the excellent customer service after the fact..special thanks to Ashton.

And also to Club Cobra. Without that, I wouldn't have met great people here like Larry (LMH), who educated me on the finer points and would drop everything to show me the myriad of cherry OE parts he's collected. Just reading Dan Case's posts brought my IQ up 10 points. This place is priceless.
