Bill, The fuel rail will still be the same way but pulled up an tucked towards the inside and held with a bracket. It still may need a shield of some sort. Cheers,

Bill, Good eye! I knew a smart GT40 guy would pick up on that. The engine builder followed the instructions for a Cobra, since there weren't instructions for a GT40. He didn't think about it even though I mentioned it to him. All the bodies need to be swung around 180 degree then the...

Well it's time to wake my build thread up. I have been quite busy at work so car work has slowed. I managed to mount my headlamps, and bought some fog lamps, yadda, yadda, a little thing here another little there. It's coming together. The big news is I picked up my engine from the...

Hi Tom, I am not answering for Ron so my guess is his fire breathing engine needs more oxygen than can make it through the side inlets! :laugh:

Chuck, Do think your temp gauge might just be the exception? It would be nice to know if that were the case... anyone, anyone Ferris Bueller? :thinking::thinking:

I think they are both in the same village in northern Maryland, and there are two other's in spitting distance of Ron and Doug.

Ooooops, I guess I missed the loading button on the other post...I'll try again.

Fran, Doug is the "street rodder" turned loose on a 40. I love it when guys step out a do stuff different then the rest of the pack! I loved that engine stuffed in there, I can't wait to hear it fired up some time! Cheers, Howard

Some more pics from the Carlisle show....enjoy. Howard

Notice how the first picture of Ron's car seems to be going to the light? It must be a speed thing even though it is sitting still. Howard

Now that Fran has covered his new baby....there were other cars at Carlisle too.... Ron, Jeff and Doug had their RCR cars there.... I only had my camera pointing at 40's, I guess there were other types of cars there, they didn't get my attention except for the SL-C (especially when Fran fired...

Ron, I will be there , without my car however. Since it's still in the build stages! See you there. Are you showing your 40 at the RCR stand? Cheers,

Hi Tom, Are you painting it yourself? That seems to be your style. Looks like you spent a lot of time on the sanding and prep work. Atta' boy Tom Later Ps. I bought some steel tubing and my friend Bill welded it. Now I can mount the rear clip the way you have done it.

PS. I am making a suitcase to fit the same position, where the spare goes. Great job you guys!!! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

VIDEO ON YOUTUBE? :laugh:

Hi Kieth, Do you have time line from your painter? Cheers,

Tom, You keep coming up with cool solutions to little irritants. I have been looking for a solution to those warts and I like your answer. The other objective I had was the round driving lights which take up considerable space, leaving little room for turn signals. I take it they are 12 volt...

Bill, I was out celebrating my wife's and son's birthdays yesterday. Sorry I didn't pick up on yours. Happy Birthday Bill! Howard

Hey Rob, Thanks for all the excellent posts on this build log! rockonsmilerockonsmile You have done an outstanding and inspirational job for a lot of the RCR and other builders out here on the rest of the planet. Where is the new home for your magnificent car? Maybe she'll show up in one of...

Hi Rob, It's left over methods from wood working on numerous furniture projects. One day I'll break my piggy bank open and buy some of the tools you have. Did your car sell?
