[QUOTE="Chaparral, post: 3753552, member: 49817"] Beautiful!!!!!!! Make sure you keep an extra bottle of Lucas smoke on hand for when the Lucas system loses some smoke. Most of the Lucas System is rebuildable unless it burns through. They have a worse than deserved reputation. Most issues are because people do not pull maintenance or they do not run the vehicles for years at a time. I do not remember, does this model still have the Solex setup or had they moved to the newer systems after ‘62? When correctly tuned the Solex are awesome, when out they are very upsetting. Check with Rennsport Werkstatt Ltd 918-663-2906 to see if he works on these. Another possible resource is Lofton Motorsprts (I hear John cursing me now). They do some older cars, mostly American but they occasionally do take on other marques. Your friend has some interesting vehicles. [/QUOTE]
