Hi
Hi
been busy helping my late Buddies 2 sons refurb his T. He bought it from Texas over 20 years ago, and imported it to the UK. It runs a 289 Cobra motor with IDAs. Apparently trailed to every event with only 40 miles covered from completion.
Couple of features are a split tube front axle, Jag IRS, gennie Cobra engine and 4 48 IDAs. Has a Magneto, not a normal dizzy.
I know it was in one of the rodding mags as I used to have a copy, but cant find it now.
After the guys cleaned out the carbs, freed off the floats it fired up. Timing is a bit off, but still early days.

I have been helping out the 2 boys to get their late Dads T back on the road for this years shows.
