The abrasive in that pic looks like drywall sanding screen.

I used that as well.  It won't deteriorate and it has "gription"

Wrong instrument panel, small gauges and warning lamps for a '74.

Ron

European LHD instrument panel without the sliders to open the heater vents. Normal 4 small gauges. 3 Smiths plus the Lucas Ammeter.

Wrong instrument panel, small gauges and warning lamps for a '74. Maybe just wrong period - unless the idea was to not need to reach too far the cigarette lighter!

If everything was there, it is worth about $10k IMHO.

All the normal things need replacing, paint, trim, etc.

It looks like someone modified that intake to fit, you can see that the flanges were welded on.
I did read a write up online where someone fabricated a manifold like that and it supposedly worked ok.

Price seems pretty high!

Pretty optimistic asking price. And what's with the single carb conversion - was that ever a thing?

Hmmm.  No mention of the Lancia Stratos?  Dino?  Carrera GT?  Pantera?  Muita?  R8?

You can still call Ken Gray at DBE directly for parts, just ordered rear flex brake lines for my S2 a few weeks back at (209) 754-5802. What part of San Diego are you at?

Joji:  Thanks.  I'll see about checking with Ken on parts.  I'm in Poway.  Perhaps we will cross paths.
