I don't know what the bottom of a Shelby car looks like, but an ERA car with the handbrake and outboard rear has the front Spicer 1330 tucked in such a fashion that it's virtually impossible to service. An upcoming project of mine is to cut a small trap door over on the passenger side of the tunnel that allows easy U-joint access with the passenger seat removed.

Why does nearly every thread turn into what Patrick is going to do next to his ERA?
