H&B wheels
were the original H&B 3-ps wheels of the era. i sold em to recoup expenses and i wasn’t a fan of the fitment. they are still avail today.
fuel tank coating.
kbs (tank) kit was used.
3 step process, could easily be one the most difficult phase of this build. though these tanks are NLA i didnt have many options.
Air Dam
oddly enough HB specialists (once H&B) still had an original in the RAW gel-coat e24 air dam. safe to say i picked it up.
H&B service records
some one loved this car and that some one spent some serious coin on it.
note the:
- full engine rebuild
- trans service
tear down part 2
i knew the head gasket was blown at time of purchase, here are the photos of its removal and the carnage that ensued pushing me toward the direction i took for a full rebuild.
- note the “hemi’d”out chambers
- ringed head
- heat shield on hood
- all point to what used to be a boosted monster
