Default 427 MKIV's

Nice input Gammy.

I recall seeing a dry-sumped 427 in a yellow MKIV at the factory in about 1992 or 3. Can't recall if it was a right hooker, but i don't think so. i thought it was built for Germany and was either cancelled or up for consignment sale at Brian's shop/showroom. It was very pretty and a very tight but tidy engine installation by the factory. It had the dry-sump flip-top top-up lid on the outside front fender, in chrome, like the old 289 petrol caps. Authentic, but not an ideal looking location, to my eye.

Anyone else recall a few of these factory MKIV 427's? An interesting variant, whot?
