Guys like Joe Kern and his team at Custom Fab and Welding are a dying breed. JRV ain't bad either.

We designed and built remote operating gull wing doors that are controlled by these valves. If the system freezes in the up position we made a tool that can release the doors and is accessible through cockpit.
Note suspension parts. We've plated as much as possible to avoid corrosion.

Toooooo COOOOOOOL!!!

Jim,

When you are finished with these sorts of overhauls, do you test out the car in the track? I'm going under the assumption that you can't really take these cars on a "shakedown" run on public roads. It's not like taking a 360 for a spin after an oil change if you know what I mean.

Car looks absolutely stunning. Car nuts and racing fans thank you for preserving a bit of history for us to enjoy.

Cheers

Sometimes we do, sometimes we fire them up and hit the highway.
