Will let you know when the man doing the article on the car for the Chicago Tribune gives me a date when it will run for the paper hopefully in April.

Got question about the Hurst Test Gabrielle Dual Duty Drag/Street shocks that were on the car back then 600-9991 on the front and 600-9978 on the back. What was the real color since these were on the car so long you can't tell the true color?

Anyone have any of the correct NOS Hurst Gabrielle Dual Duty white shocks for the front of the car I think that 600 9991 is the correct number because the backs are 600 9978 Picture of front shock still on car included.

Anyone have any of the correct NOS Hurst Gabrielle Dual Duty white shocks for the front and rear of the car I think that 600 9991 is the correct number for the front and the backs are 600 9978 Picture of front shock still on car included plus picture now of back shock. Thought I found a pair for the back but they turned out to be wrong ones. [/ QUOTE ]

Here is pictures of the original headers with dents that were put in from coming down hard from wheel stands years ago and also clearances to make adjustments left them in when they were jet hot coated to maintain originality thought that would be the right thing to do.

Valve covers restored [/ QUOTE ] Hey Barry, show us a better photo of the restored M/T valve covers! Did you just polish them or was there more to the job? I have a set I need to clean up. |

The valve covers were sent to a guy who tumbles them and does what ever else he has to do will get you a name and phone number will get better photo when engine is set in the powder coated frame with mags and everthing on frame from Mike Hepler doing the restoration.

If anyone out there has a NOS Auto-Meter Rev limiter like in the early pictures of this post where it is in with the magnito and the tach I would be interested for putting it on this car let me know.
