Still available. Price negotiable.

Dan, I'm sure you know this. I read years ago that all the blocks back in the 60's (specifically, and maybe earlier and/or later), were in fact seasoned blocks. Left out in a field and "seasoned" with the cold and hot of the seasons. I never heard much more about blocks being seasoned as we moved closer to the 5.0 era and beyond. That may have been why the small blocks specifically was so strong and bulletproof!!
Any elaboration is welcomed!

Also I have this model kit from '68 and the cobra record (really who don't have the record) but I'm looking for the extra piece that I have circled in red. Does anyone know about this piece that came in the model kit?
Thanks
Rich

Don't get on here too often but thanks Brian and please post the issue if you find it.

Does anyone know anything about this pullout that's in the March '65 issue of SCG?
Seems most of that issue are missing this.

Third piece.

More photos of second piece.

I have three pieces of Carroll Shelby Limited Edition Luggage that I won from the Carroll Shelby Foundation after a yearly donation that I give. I had these on here a while back but recently fetched the third piece from my granddaughter. I've had these for about six years and haven't used them but a handful of times. I don't travel much at all now and would like to find a home for this CS luggage. As you can see from the photos that all three pieces are in excellent condition. CS logos on the silver inserts as well as CS sewn in signature, small mag wheels are neat.
If someone is interested I can give more details and photos. I will post about a dozen photos but feel free to ask any questions or if you want more specific photos, let me know.
I'm asking $500 for the set OBO plus buyer pays shipping.
Thanks for looking

They always told me my wing nuts were out of plum😁
Thanks Roy.

You can barely see it but I fabricated the fuel pump as well. In addition, I fabricated the fuel rail and the fuel lines to both carbs.

Few more of undercarriage and wheels and full side view. The black in  KH wheels were detailed as well.

More photos.

Photos I promised. I have about a dozen so I'll post several times.

Also in addition to the post from Jan 16th, the positive and negative battery cables were fabricated. As well as the alternator wiring. Both the P/S dipstick and the oil dipstick were fabricated. Coil along with the coil wiring were fabricated.
Air filter element was painted orange with white as well as the Cobra top filter housing black with the silver paint along with the Cobra valve covers.

I got most of my ideas from the DeAgostini forum. And just tweaked a few items to make it look more realistic.
Thanks for looking.

Wonder why it hasn't sold?

I don't get on here no where near what I used to. I went through a bitter divorce and she ended up with it. But my daughter is going to take some photos for me. I live in a different state now and so does my daughter.
I spent 3 years on this model and I will get photos on here soon.
