Post #9 for anybody in a hurry...

Oh, congratulations!  You should have a lot of fun putting that back together.

Zed Head, we call them 69s because they were built in 1969.

Didn't @Gav240z own this car?

No.

I own the RHD #51. HS30 00051

This car is HLS30 00051

Funny enough my car was also 907 Green from factory.

However the engine no. is much higher because I believe it was made in early 70. Not in 1969.

I should get a better photo of the ID plate.

I’ve read the rebuild thread from 6-7 years back with interest…..  of hs30-00051   Are there current pictures to drool over somewhere?

[dspillman]

      Better picture of firewall vin stamp, proper inspection lid, and a small example of needed parts……    But my “part doner car” 740 is showing great potential.    Red dot mirror, radio, console, perfect fuse box,and ashtray dash wiring harness!!!.  Much needed parts for 51

Those fuses look pretty cool.  You should save them as antique curiosities. 

Never even knew about "red dot mirrors".  Are they a "Series 1" thing?  😈

Who stitched the boy's mouth shut?

     The “stitches” are the dust from wiping off the ash tray then using a tooth brush to clean the item…….  You been around long enough to know red dot…….
