That is not my Coupe but one that factory Five was backing back in 2007. I have been gathering parts for the GT40 and if all goes well should be racing the Daytona Coupe this fall in Limestone Maine in the standing mile and a half. Regards, Mark

Graham, Have you tried Jay Cushman? Regards, Mark

I think he is alive and well as I saw him a month ago at a flea market (parts Jumble to those across the pond) Regards, Mark

Rod, I replied to your message. Brian, You are correct it is in Maine. I've been trying to gather correct parts for it for a few years now. Actually just last night missed out on a pair of seats on Evil bay... If all goes well should be able to start on the project this winter. Regards, Mark

Been running the old 52 chevy for years with only rainX it works for rain but not so well in a light mist or at slow speeds. Just be very cautious. Regards, Mark

Bob, Interested in the 4 hood latches. Regards, Mark

I am still waiting to get time to work on my cars but have purchased a 3 pound lead hammer mold. The hammer takes up less space than a deadblow and is fun to make. And with having a mold when it gets beat up it can just be recast. Regards, Mark

Frank, If you fab up a set of the original style door hinges for a T70mk3b I may be interested in a set as that is one of those items that really has me scratching my head. The continuation cars had a more substantial hinge that looks like half of a stainless steel offset boat locker hinge...

Yes, This gets me to a free weekend!!!!!:2thumbsup: And maybe out of the dog house....as I would have had to miss the Sunday events due to my son's Boy scout troops car show. There is no short cut from Maine to Virginia but I do know to avoid NY city (I-95) One trip through there with the...

Karl, Welcome to the forum. Also, be understanding that some questions are hard to answer with out seeing pictures of the part in detail. Maybe if you posted the question in the motor section you would have gotten a reply? Regards, Mark

John, If you talk with the local speed shop they usually know of a few stock car racers with scales that may be able to help you out. Regards, Mark
