Re: OPGI Catalog Delayed

Re: OPGI Catalog Delayed
If you pre-order you get bombarded with their emails for their other products. IMO Wait until it happens and then request the catalog.

The body is a copy of the P3/P4 sports racer and not an Alfa. This is one of the most desirable Ferrari sports racers. Very rare.
Gorgeous copy

Re: New Product: Replacement Fuse Panels! (more info)
I think the length of instructions is fine. Especially what tools are required. I think novice DIY folks will find it somewhat overwhelming, especially once they see the tool list.

Second choice would be an aftermarket suggestion that would fit the '65 with as little replacing items as possible. Any suggestions of ...

Re: 65 vert brakes went out
Both Clarke's and California Corvair indicate it is for '67-'69 model. Is it appropriate for a '65?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.
