Without this site and helpful members, and the assembly manual, this would be challenge. Some days it was anyway!

Bill, if your not doing anything, tote it up to Norwalk next weekend.(Bluesuede) We're running the Anglia in Nostalgic gas. We will be there Thursday through Sunday. Trailer, motorhome, Mule...going to race(sandbag) Kid's bringing down the 38 International. Whole family is going to be there. Stop buy and have a cold one. Let me know, I'll throw the slicks off the Z in the trailer if you want to blow a little carbon out of that 302 ;D  Fun runs all weekend.(Spectator side) We're set up to tune it if need be.

Car looks fan @#$#ntastic!

Dublin's a beautiful town$$. We stayed there when we did Goodguys...about 24 years ago. Picked up a set of plug wires from the old Jegs.

Jano  thanks for the invite and it could use some tuning but I don't think i would be brave enough for a track run yet! It has 3 miles on it from taking it to the alignment shop and that's it. I will try and get a you tube video of it and have it running.  I did leave the 140 cam in it the original owner installed in 1971. People look at you like you brought a race car to a car show.well, I guess I did!

Yea, I say it in jest. These cars are way too rare to hammer at the track. You can get a drag car for a fraction of the cost..not to say anything wrong with a nice 'lobe" at idle !
