65_Mustang_rough_clone3_Medium_
The rear fender flare was removed to check out the work underneith. Lots of filler,fiberglass,and foam. The factory flare was cut out and the metal welded together. No rust, but enough damage to require new quarter panels.

Arntz wheel well doors
Arntz Type 4 only; not on any Butlers. There's one of these doors on each side of the car, at the rear of the rear wheel wells. They open to the space between the rear bodywork and the frame rails. This one on the passenger side allows access to the battery compartment and slide-out tray. The one on the driver's side supposedly allows you to store a collapsible spare tire but I have not found one with a small enough initial diameter to fit through the door. The wheel has to be taken off first to be able to open the doors.

Temporary Gauges
Here are the 5 gauges I set up to test fire my engine in the chassis. These are enough to monitor and tune the engine.

Edelbrock/Ford SVO 429/460 Pump Flow Chart
Here is a chart I put together that compares the two different popluar pulley sizes available in the aftermarket for the 429/460 in fancy shmancy polished powder coated clear aluminum pulleys. The big pulley is not the way to go, you cant get enough flow to cool these high horsepower motors on the street.

Trunk weather strip
Finished installation. Not very pretty, but using the larger dia. bulb wopuld not compress easily enough to permit the trunk to latch and allow the deck to be flush with the adjacent body. The original dia. weatherstrip did not compress along the top and sides at all.

CART Racing
Was lucky enough to have my Name/Company Logo on the spoiler of Patrick Racing's CART car in 2001 for the Texas race. Unfortunately the drivers refused to race due to the high track speeds

FIA_Suitcase_Study1
It’s documented that (2) AC factory cars were prepared with FIA suitcase "dimples" (See Photos). The second modification was to enlarge the trunk base to allow the suitcase to fit upright (vertical) and further down into the trunk as shown. If you look closely at the photo you can see the suitcase also fit horizontal and was held in place with a “bungee cord”. You can also see the bolts protruding out the bottom of the suitcase which originally held the suitcase upright. I think this also explains why some of the FIA cars had dimples while others didn’t.
As for the actual size of the suitcase – FIA Historic Racing Championships - Appendix J. Both 1964 and 1965.
State:
“270 - Luggage trunk
A covered space being an integral part of the coachwork but outside of the space occupied by the front seats, large enough to receive a trunk of
65 cm X 40 cm X 20 cm. minimum, besides the spare wheel, tools or the folded hood, shall be provided, excluding the spare wheel, tools or removed canopy.”
