Alex, To continue beating this dead horse... I was just visiting a friend who was completing his restoration of a Koni equipped '67 Shelby. When...
Thanks, Shawn. I had seen a photo with a SAFE door key, but I couldn't quite make out the whole logo. I get the reluctance to cut steel keys. I...
The door and ignition keys that came with our '69 Daytona are both Silca keys. Even though they look old enough to be original, I have my doubts...
Although I'm getting cautious about passing judgement on pictures of these shocks, I think your experience is consistent with the result I would...
Wow. I'm going to hire you to do any research projects that come up on this car. Thanks to your work, I'm now suspicious of making any decision...
Quite possibly. There have been several times that we have said "Somewhere are all the parts that were taken off this car in '81 when it was...
My daughter will be coming home from college for Christmas break after over a year of taking Italian as her language requirement. It seems my...
I wasn't familiar with them. Obviously very talented fabrication shop - I'll have to spend a little time on their site. Thanks
Interesting, but unfortunate as I have a lot of questions for them. Thanks for the tip.
I don't have a RAL deck, but just looking at their reds on a computer (not ideal, I know), I would say that our '73 Porsche strut is much more...
Since we are returning our '69 to its original plexi configuration from its current pop-up headlight arrangement, we need to source some of the...
Maybe they did have more than one shade in this period. This is from a '73 911 and it definitely looks more orange than what you have shown and...
Alex, You would think so, but they told me that Koni won't give them the formula. And they know that what they are using is too orange, but...
Thanks, Ted. I just used your photo to verify that the color used by the rebuilder is too orange. I will have him return the shocks unpainted and...
Alex, I've seen paint marks adjacent to each other on the same coil on later cars, but both our front and rears had them on different coils. Rory...
There's no guarantee that our suspension hasn't been messed with, but the scruffy springs still have traces of the white/blue and white/yellow ID...
The West coast authorized Koni rebuilder, Performance Shocks, says that their color match of the Koni red used in the period might be a little too...
Timo, Due to his unfortunate passing, we were left with very limited records. Since we are completely disassembling the body and chassis in order...
Timo, I didn't realize that you were familiar with our car. It's too bad that you didn't have greater involvement at the time - I'm sure that...
I agree completely. While I always value the input of someone with more knowledge or experience than I have on a given car, it’s just another data...
