I have one for my '68 2000. I do not know the model of it, but it is a nice fit. Thing to watch out for is the top adjustment. The roadster seats are narrow enough to clear that adjustment, but some

I haven't made up any plugs in a while, but still do run them "once every few months". The plugs are made from 6061-T6 aluminum with 14mm x 1.5mm threading. Ends have a double step to fill the air i
