The interior is mostly done just four screws for the shift boot and the steering wheel center. Saved original very patina’d floor mat’s from CSX30xx. Had to redo the lift a dots on the mat’s and drill for pins. Started preparing the gas tank for installation mainly the straps that hold it in that’ll go in. I had some du-dads under there. It’s pretty much ready to go with batteries and side pipes.

Prepped the other motor for installation and the other car as well or to come on that front.

Looking good, Jeff.

HTM111 will be ready when driving season rolls around again. In say another 3 months or so

Question

Are those the bolts used for the Lemans filler cap on the 289 race cars, too, Jeff?

That is a great question as its a comp car thing as I know it.
I know 2345 is a smooth chromed unit as are a bunch of them. Most of the 289's were the small cap thus no, however the race cars differed.

With years of neglect, restorations and so few around I would say IDK?
2345 - Nope
3020 = Yes
3028 - Nope
3040 - Nope
