Post by: jick on October 31, 2008, 04:04:58 am they were real ones.....when Bernard first built it it had flat4 BRM`s.....on polished 356 rear drums, when he got the original americans they wouldn`t clear the fins on the drums ...... i got the drums now on my `59
its a great car and still looks as good now as the day it was finished Title: Re: Oh how I wish I were rich. Post by: Zach Gomulka on October 31, 2008, 06:56:57 am Yeah I'm pretty sure he had those on there way before the repops were avaliable.
Title: Re: Oh how I wish I were rich. Post by: Tobi/DFL on October 31, 2008, 08:35:23 am Thatīs my alltime favorite cal look oval. It has "IT" all. But I must admit that I like it much better with the centerlines than with those real american racing mags.
The only thing I would change would be the chrome trim on the rear side windows... ;) Tobi Title: Re: Oh how I wish I were rich. Post by: Jon on October 31, 2008, 08:50:45 am I agree Tobi that car is truly cool, as I recall it, it was also one of the first European lookers doing the Lucas/dechrome thing. And it looks way better on the Centerlines, since I can't look at the previous wheels without thinking on a octopus... :-X
