Gary Sharapata's 514 lives!!
For those of you that didn't know it, Gary Sharapata has finally got his 514 running. Drew Baird & I met at his house for the first firing(that I have heard), and I took a few pictures and uploaded a couple of then early this morning, but I made the post under the B & B forum...SORRY.
Here's the link, & if I screw it up again, just go to my photo gallery. John R. http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/i...=1799&size=big I also uploaded a few more photos a few minutes ago, & hopefully fixed the link. another one http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/i...=1798&size=big |
John,
Thanks for the post and the pics in "Your Photo Gallery"! They look great....... |
The pictures look real good.
Those colors and setup seem to be the way I want to head as well. It's just a matter of time for me. |
Everything went together right visually on that one!
The colors , hard top, and the knock off style wheels really belong together on that car. It really looks authentic !
(I assume the new 514 is the hard top in the pic) I have the same motor in my incoming turnkey WCC., with EFI. What tranny, rear end, clutch setup is in this car? |
O.K. Gary's car alone in this one
O.K.
Here is a picture of Gary's Royal Blue SPF with the 514 alone, in all it's splendor! Sorry for the confusion. John R (with the hardtop- Guardsman Blue) http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/i...=1811&size=big |

Hi Gary and Russel,
Do you have the PPG code for that Royal Blue? Thanks Ipe. |
Gary It's good to hear that you have your car running. I know you must be ready to get your car out on the road. It sounds like you had a good support team with you as well. My new car is supposed to be shipped in a few days and should get it in by mid July. What a hot time to do an engine install. I look forward in seeing you car sometime.
Take Care Dan Hardiman |
Thanks Dan, it is awesome!
My birthday was today so this was a pretty good present to finally have it finished! |
Happy Birthday, Gary!

Gary,....?
How stiff is your McLeod clutch setup? The one in my Scout 2, 4 x 4 , is so (really) stiff, it hurts to drive it as a commute vehicle!
It does excel for 4 x 4 stuff, tho. It has the 258 Jeep type 6 cylinder, 4 speed with granny first. Does the aluminum flywheel, etc... make things lighter, pressure wise? |
