Daily Driver
A street driven small block car seen at the Steamboat Springs, CO. vintage races in 1994. This same car appeared at the 1998 Steamboat races painted red. (They both had the same license plate.) Possibly it is CSX 2545.

Re-Designed and Re-Positioned brake pedal.
When we originally done the brake pedal, as can be seen in earlier photo, we used the standard size VZ HSV SS Commodore pad on the brake pedal shaft. When it was fitted, it was discovered that there was nowhere to rest or place my left foot, other than on the floor in front of the brake. The pedal shaft was straightened and the pad reduced in size. Now it's perfect.

Unusual rear attachment
Seems this setup won't allow any suspension travel at all...??

Ford_Raditor_Heat_Rejection_Chart- Street Rod Example
This chart compares the heat rejection rate (cooling capacity) of three different types of radiators tested on an old Ford Street Rod. Coolant flow rate is held constant at 7 gpm (typical flow at idle perhaps, not sure where its being measured ???). It graphs the heat rejection for each radiator versus air flow through the radiator core. It is comparing 3 diff rad designs/materials at different CFMs through the core. The more air flow you have for a given coolant flow rate (7 gpm in this example) , the higher the heat rejection, basically linear in this example. The author of this graph is most likely selling the high efficiency radiator showing the improvement over the other two designs. To sum it up, the radiator at the top of the chart appears to be the most efficient at a low coolant flow rate (7 gal/min) over all air flows tested. Ya see how important rad core/tank design is? I learned something here.

Inside the door skin
I took this shot to show how the hinges and latches have been reinforced with steel. This is a shot seldom seen on most kit cars. By the way the latch will be electric and operable by remote, push button, or manually. Just a small liberty taken here.

Full shot of HCS Coupe
I know the picture is dark but I forgot to allow my flash on this shot but you can see how well the body has came out of the mold.

ERA 289 FIA and CSX 2490
Tom Cotter's original 289 Cobra and my ERA 289 FIA - easy to see here how much wider the FIA body was to accomodate larger racing tires.
