Gorgeous car Blake! The only tell is the round gauges. So hard to source those 2-year only octagonal ones!

Here ya go. Bridget’s EJ22 on a bathroom scale. That’s 260 lbs. Flywheel and clutch attached, full intake, etc, but no exhaust.

Pretty sure I took that pic…

Excellent!

Hey Stefan, nice find! I did mine a dozen years ago and paid a lot more for an original plate in worse shape than yours. (Story at link).

Originally these were bolted to the wood dash panel with those round-head screws, with a nut and spring washer on the back of each one. The holes they fit through are squared off so you don’t need to hold…[Read more]

Good on yas!

If MG Magic doesn’t come through consider buying a roll of marine carpet and cutting that to fit. That’s what I did on my car and a decade later I’m still finding new and fun uses for what’s left of the roll.

I also tried to make my own door cards but that didn’t go well so I got a real upholsterer to do them right and to match what the original…[Read more]

Dang! Mustang II stock steering parts NLA??

Bonus because “race car.”

You know I like to try things and build stuff…[Read more]

Leave the front tires at 20 or a little below. Back ones should be good at about 25.

30 psi is too much and will make it handle poorly and ride like a rock.

Good news re mileage. Sometimes a little tuneup is all you need.

Good luck & keep us posted.

20-25 is normal. My Spyder with a hotted up 1914 with dual 44 Webers did about 23mpg on average. The TD, when it had the 1600 SP, did a little better than that. Ten is definitely cause for maintenance. If you’re close to five it’s leaking for sure. It’d never run that rich.

I’d start by checking everything per the book. Check and change the oil.…[Read more]

$3500.

Hey thanks, man!

Nice run!

Linky no worky Bill. You pulled your own edit link instead of the published link.

That’s how I would do it.
