Thank y'all! I shall move from plan to do. I'll post back when job is done.

Thanks guys! exactly what I needed. When it comes to the pop rivets, are the brackets fixed with two rivets on the upper side and two on the bottom of the brackets? can't really see on the photo. And is the grille supposed to be painted before the brackets are fixed or after. What was the...

OK, the front is disassembled. Unfortunately the wide grille moldings were killed by the L-washers, so I've ordered new standard ones and will have them painted with the tube stands, grille and marshal brackets. But before starting I need a few pointers: 1. Just to make sure; its just the flat...

...And isn't "special" mounted too far to the rear compared to"California" or is it just me?

+ The grille trim looks like chrome and the Rear quarter CS scripts seems to be mounted very low. My guess it is a clone.

Also C code with GT rear valence. /Jesper

The performance question on 2v to 4v conversion has been asked many times (I have asked it myself) and I think we have been over most aspects of C vs J code set ups like dual exhaust, heads and exhaust ports, rear ratio etc. Leaving the data and hard facts aside a second, would anyone dare to...

Did they always come with shroud? Cause my C-code doesn't have one...

Looks very nice to me!! Any chance you would consider shipping overseas Mike? /Jesper

This was my impression as well, same block, different heads, but then again I have never checked the casting of my heads.

Aha....makes some sort of sense. Guess I have to stand corrected on the heads as well. So when I got the suggestion to go with 302 heads for the engine rebuild that someone meant what? Boss 302 heads?

Isn't the cylinder heads different between the 289 and the 302 as well? I'm lost in translation here so I need to ask what a piston "skirt" is??

I would challenge statement 3. Average is almost never the same as median. The average number of legs of the worlds population is 1,98. :)

Arlie, any luck yet finding a shop that could make the brackets? /Jesper

Thanks Neil! /Jesper

Intention is not to steel the thread, just to point out I am still looking for period correct bullet connectors for my Lucas lights so if you have spares let me know. /Jesper

A bit off topic...my car is the same color and same color of engine compartment as this car. Does anyone know if this is the original color of the engine compartment (black) or was it originally in body color? /Jesper

Good for you!! Mine wasn't bad either, found a new heater plenum for free, rear NOS bumper guards (not for free but still...) and by chance license plate frame with the text "One of 3867" and all on this side of the Atlantic...

Very nice with original Hood and grille? /Jesper

Allrighty! Thanks. That was a simple fix! :)
