The car number is: GTD4030592 and was supposely built here in the the US in 1997 but I really don't no for sure. I sent some pics of the transaxle to Frank in UK and he says it is the R30 with the 3:89 ring and pinion. I had 3:73s in my Cobras with 5 speeds and not really concerned about that. The Vintage Air Condensor looks like the one to have. This car still has the R12 system with the 505 compression. going to get it checked out soon but my 1st priority is the vibration. Think I'll put a new fluid dampner on it first and see if that fixes it. If not I'll pull the motor and transaxle over the next few months and then upgrade it. A nice 331 stroker with the webers ought to be neat!
