Ford GP (series 1) slow build

[Mike Cecil]

Mike,

Yes, had one too .... but it and the valve guide bar that was also produced for the Ford valve system went in the clearing sale we had just before we left for the USA. I had not intended to get back onto restoration, so all sorts of things were sold that in hindsight, I could use now! NOS Ford dash gauges, special tools (I wonder if the recipient ever worked out what it was for), wheel nut spanner/wrenches and bar, a GP marked wheel bearing tube spanner/wrench, and so on....

The 'Yass Boys' did well from that haul, I think!

Still, no regrets: it has worked out well for us.

I'll be replacing the valves anyway, so may resort to cutting off the heads to give access to the valve guide from above.
