Drop Axles: Does anyone know if drop axles are available for the Corvette
chassis? A friend is using Corvette chassis on a Cobra kit car and wants to
lower the nose. He sees nothing available in any of the aftermarket catalogs.
XK120 (2) and Jaguar Parts: Same gentleman has two restorable XK120s in his
barn that reportably show less than 50K. There are very few people that know
about these cars. He is retired, living on a farm, and not e-mail enabled. He
IS interested in selling and I mentioned that I would put some feelers out.
He is going to keep his XK140 as it has a bit more legroom for him. Too tall
to drive the XK120s.
Cars are located near Cedar Falls, Iowa. I am going to go look at his new
project the and Jaguars and a cache of parts in the next couple of weeks. It
has been a few years since I walked through his barns of cars and parts, so I
need to refresh my image of this stuff. Please contact me privately if you
have any interest. I will be on the road for a week and largely offline.
Also, I can be found in the paddock area at VARA's LV event Fri-Sat-Sun, if
you are interested and want to talk. I'll be hanging out with the elite group
of Triumph folks.
