Stage 1 parting with money

Well hear she is my 67 US spec project ( I could have bought it complete but I didn't have the cash at the time ). Bought as a roller that was advertised as ratty but 100% solid. She was running a 2442 Turbo with water cooled heads, going a slightly different route but large type 1 powered she will remain.




So as you can see apart from the bonnet and roof she in her factory Beige paint ( the most underrated colour ) The Harold Helper will be going as they restrict air flow into the engine, bar that I love the stance and even the heavy towel rail bumpers.

I have had her sent to Jeff Denham's work shop to have the future engine tested fitted and mocked up before she takes a trip over to the UK ( and salt roads ). Hes a strange chap highly skilled and thinks way outside the box and also likes cars that don't scream RACE ME!
