Thanks
Master list? It is just a large hoard of parts. In reality, I don't have time to make a list. It would take me days which I simply don't have.

When Bill asked me to start the project I flew out to Bill's place and started boxing things up. There were only 1 or 2 of some things and then...well...they'll all be gone. That "master list" will be different for each build. The hoard will dwindle, but at the same time I'm sure there will be more and more parts reproduced to original spec. Each final spec will depend, I imagine, on how much the customer wants to spend on details.

Details can be extraordinarily expensive. I have heard of judges pulling dipsticks and checking date codes at Cobra concours events.

Does the customer want to pay someone to go around and find original dip sticks??? Maybe so. My guess is it's all up to the buyer.
