Everyone who is waiting for answers on parts--I wasn't able to get to them today. There were many phone calls and parts to pack up and ship. I will try to answer all your questions tomorrow.

If a 427SC "Kirkham in a box" is not found, I'd "settle" for a 289FIA

These are the latest modification we did to the original style rear lower control arms before we switched entirely to billet suspensions. We replaced the bearing with an adjustable rod end to more easily adjust camber and caster in the rear suspension. Rear caster is adjusted by lengthening and shortening the bushings in the rod end. We replaced the original bearing because it really didn't have enough travel and the bearing beat out over time.

Retail on these 427 Rear lower control arms is $500 each. I will let these go for $350 each.

These are pictures of prototype 427 S/C head tubes. These head tubes are not completely welded and will need some tweaking and welding to finish them up. Tubes are made from mild steel.

Head tubes retail $1,000. I'll let these go for $250. Please see the below description. They need work.

SOLD

Below:

Left head tubes. Notice the "hole" between head tube #5 and #6. That is where the steering shaft goes through the pipes on the original car. The #5 tube is to the right in the below photo.


The $5 tube is to the left in the below photo.



#7 and #8 are do not have the flanges welded to the tube. They are only tacked into place.


#7 only has the tube tacked together. It is not welded together.


The flange on #7 is 3/16-1/4" of an inch away from the flange. The tube will have to be stretched and tweaked to fit.


The following 2 pictures are of the right side. The right side head tubes are quite short--just like an original car.

Below are a set of 427 headers that fit a 351 motor. Notice the head tubes extend all the way out of the body. We designed these so the merge collector is outside the body--just like CSX3020 that Dave Dralle used to drive.

These are made from steel. The flanges will bolt onto the narrow exhaust bolt pattern. They are brand new and in perfect condition.

Head tubes retail $1000. Today--$500

We have several FE mounts I just found. Picture of the different kinds below:

We have two sets of these mounts. They are after market mounts. I will let them go for $10 each. Please note, one of the studs is longer than the other one. That won't matter when you put in your motor, but just making sure you know. We have 4 each. 3 with the short stud. 1 with the long stud.



These are the Ford C6SZ mounts. We used these mounts for years on our cars until they were no longer available. They price had also gotten quite high $75 each We have 4 each. I'll let these go for $35 each.




When the above mounts were discontinued, we started to make our own in Poland. Retail $75 each. I'll let these go for $35 each. We have 2 each.

SOLD 2 SETS, BUT JUST FOUND 2 MORE SETS 29 Nov 2010

SIDE PIPES:
We have a set of stainless side pipes, polished. One of the side pipes is dented on the bottom, (you can't see it when you look at the pipe when it is mounted on the car). You have to crawl under the pipe to see it. The other pipe has the holes stretched out a bit on the muffler. The pipes are $2000 retail. We will let them go for $1000. They do NOT include the head tubes. 1 set only.

HEAD TUBES. We have a used set of head tubes that are not polished. Stainless steel. Retail $1500. Today--$750. 1, maybe 2 sets only.

427 FE INTAKE MANIFOLD
We have a dual 4 intake. Low Riser. $200 1 intake only.

ALTERNATOR PULLEY

HARMONIC BALANCER PULLEY.
Aluminum. Fits Big Block Chevy. We slotted the holes and used them on the FE until we made our own. $15 We have 3

DRIVE SHAFT--We don't have any scratch and dents right now.

REAR VIEW MIRROR--which one do you want?

SHIFTER FOR TKO--which one do you want. Our straight shifter is $100. Today--$50.

Default any scratch and dent daytona coupe parts

David,
Any prototype or scratch and dent daytona coupe panels? Like the quarter panel you showed in your video of how it is made? How about any side differential mounts for a 289 car. I know they are different than a 427 car, but are there mounts that bolt where the diffential stub axels mount? Could they be used on a Jag center section with some modifications? Thanks Mark Stuart

Actually, we do have some scratch an dent Coupe panels. We have a quarter panel and a diffuser. The quarter panel could be shipped rather easily. The diffuser may be to big to ship UPS.

The 289 and 427 side differential mounts are the same. I don't know how you could use them on a Jaguar. Maybe there is some way to modify them to fit on the inboard brake mount. I am not sure. I'd have to check; but, we don't have a Jag case here any more.
