The Twin Cam plays the symphony whilst my right foot conducts the orchestra. At 3800 rpm the Mad Pipe Organ joins in.

Hi Valerio,
Did you fit a new lighter bonnet or what's the reason for this look? I love your beautiful car :coolpic:

I also fitted a new front bonnet for my cooling upgrade and a little TC spoiler. Hope to be back on track in October. But I'm still waiting for engine parts from France :headbanger:

How big is the trailer you have your car on? Will a Europa fit on a 6' x 12' utility trailer?

Thanks Mecky!
the bonnet is just wrapped with matt black vinyl.
The look is now more 1970- tour de France- wannabe. As GTS is more aligned to the period.
When I will turn into TSRC then I will come back to a more Sixties look.

I solved all the trouble related to the overheating keeping the radiator in the same position.
I have done a kind of airbox behind the radiator and using a fan that pull the air from behind.
