I will put you out your misery Guys. Flying was correct,  I had the front engine lifting hook off to paint, it was looking a bit crappy so I thought I would make it look a bit better. Since it has been so quiet on bellett.net, I thought I would stir something up again.  Bullitt thought the grille is blue like his sedan, hence Dave's comment ABOUT BEING MISSING FROM HIS CAR, however because it was such a beautiful day here in Mudgee, the grille is chrome and this may sound ridiculous, BUT the blue reflection in the chrome grille, would you believe was the blue sky!!! NO JOKE!!!

Hey Dave, how good does your engine bay look in the sun! almost better than mine Ken is right. The Coil should be black with a little hitachi brand on it. Good point Greg... I think all later model crankcase ventilators had the outlet with a hose to the carbs. Also, There isn't any small C shaped bracket on the nut between No 1 and 2 spark plugs support the thermostat wire  cheers, Lewis |

they are the same block as a 180s the 3rd cam runs the oil pump and if you take the welch plug out you could run a dizzy. |

THANK YOU GLENN! That is exactly what I was going to say, from what you told me, the engine bay is original! Also shown in the Wheels road test of the same model! I did not say "what is the wrong colour", I did say what is missing.
