I missed this posting earlier Russell.

Those molds would have to be from the Gemco Olds?

Whatever happened to that car? Last I heard, IIRC, Charlie Conway had stuffed a 2 litre into it for the SCANZ Championship back in the mid 70's! I see you're using Buick/Rover power with Webers. Interestingly the Gemco had Rover/Buick/Olds Traco power with, I think, 4 Webers similar to your setup. I shall always remember the terrific dices that Gary Pederson had with Graham Harvey in the Elfin. Can't remember which won the championship though.

Are you building your car from remnants of the Gemco?

Cheers
