Thats good but nothing I can use. Sorry but thank you.

I´m still searching for the blocks or complete engines. Thank you....

never ever replace an original tag even if it looks totally bad.

sold to John

I bough this in summer and it was sitting at my friends house here in the states. I don't need it anymore and don't want to take it home to germany so for someone who needs an original GT500 Air Cleaner Lid it will sell for .....$ shipping incl. in the 48 states. Please decide fast as I will leave here in the next days.

We have a track here where I won the last 3 years in a row as it's a 1/8 mile with just 500 feet braking zone and after that there are trees and an uphill into the woods. I come in with 114-115 mph at the line of the 1/8 under full throttle and then I have to brake very hard with my 68 Mustang. The fastest cars after me there go around 100-105 mph and that's ok but they are using real drag cars with big brakes etc. and my 68 is just a fastback with cage and otherwise all original body with pretty old school suspension. So I would say the braking for me is more hairy than the start on this no prep track where I really have to start "smooth" to don't blow the tires. And yes I easily go low 9s on prep

i don't want to think about what will happen if on these Funny Cars the parachute will fail on the short tracks, yes its a dangerous sport but there is something that says "do it" I had some moments where I thought stop now but with every failure and thing that happen you get better and better. The only thing I don't do anymore is racing against each other as there are to many factors with these hobby racers that I don't have an influence in. So I can't participate at every event but on the hairy tracks and at some races where safety is first usually the fastest group are just going for fastest times so it's ok that I want to drive alone because the best ET counts. I love it because so I can concentrate completely on what I´m doing.

If it would be that one I would keep it, no its a brand new clutch

if you are located in Europe I would have one for you, original. There is no 100% concours hood just the originals will be correct.

I know what you meant but for others clarification there is no reproduction 100% concours hood n the market. You can make a good repro look like it should but it requires the knowledge and extensive time and effort.

exactly buying an original one is easier if you don't had several cars and original hoods in your hands.

and by the way he is also faster than Mr. John Force, respect
