Title: 1963 Street/Strip Cal Looker. Post by: Justin R on February 06, 2011, 21:13:56 pm (http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-sf2p/v207/185/15/730027440/n730027440_1076419_7304.jpg?dl=1)

The interior is stripped out and has a roll cage tagged for 10.0 built by Webster Race Engineering in lovely lightweight Cro-moly. The rear is paneled out in Aluminum to cover the Battery, Nitrous solenoids and EFi unit....oh yeah. 2193cc Dynoed at 112bhp at the rear wheels without the laughing gas. OMEX fuel injection with 50mm IDF pattern Jenvey throttle bodies. Street Eliminator heads (these are the limiting factor at the moment) FK89 79mm crank and 94mm forged B&P fully plumbed and ready for Nitrous, just fill the bottle. Proper A1 exhaust in Stainless with o2 bung. Rancho gearbox tied into the roll cage and solid mounted. Oh yeah, that Gearbox runs a Quaife LSD, these things are the bollocks and cost £750 on their own, that's the level of attention to detail that went into this car. The rest of the car was restored by Henley Beetles a few years ago, and was a former Greenhearts car, so you know the sort of quality that we are talking. It's used, and could do with neatening up a little, but it is solid as you would ever want. Road registered, runs 13's without Nitrous, and will come with a fresh MOT. Worth every penny of £12,500 piss takes will be ignored. I'm not kindly disposed to photo collectors and test pilots either, if you are serious then I'll do whatever I can to help you. Car is currently in Storage so I can't take you a picture of whatever in 20 minutes Title: Re: 1963 Street/Strip Cal Looker.

Ran an 1835cc JMR motor back then, if it is the same car. And if it is the same car, and these were the wheels it had on it then, then they're Eagle reps. (I think they were called 520 or 529's depending if they were satin or polished, but I have a crap memory so feel free to shoot me down).

Amazing how random stuff sticks in the memory but birthdays escape Lee Title: Re: 1963 Street/Strip Cal Looker.

I was told they where Centrelines and knew no better. Title: Re: 1963 Street/Strip Cal Looker. Post by: Justin R on February 07, 2011, 23:09:54 pm Just to clarify, It wasn't Max who claimed 'em as Centrelines, and I should have checked my memory myself.......
Sorry guys. |
