Thats a crazy looking engine bay. Looks nice. I like the oil filters on the top of the motor. It just Barley fits too.

Ganey - Yes, wonder how that would have changed history.....

Around the time that GM turned down Arkus-Duntov's request to build 100 special full race Corvette Grand Sports. Shelby wrangled 2 chassis from Chevrolet and had bodies put on them in Italy. GM did nothing with the project so he went to Ford for engines. The rest is history.

I did notice in the post above that the car is labeled "Shelby..... " Was ERA operated by Shelby? Kind of makes you wonder about the donor car - if it was an original Cobra or not?

ERA is a company that make cobra kit cars, they have no connection to Shelby as I understand it
