I was going to use these myself but the chrome was too bad to run as is. They have a factory chrome coating and factory black paint. From what I have gathered so far this may have been a first half of 1958. I don't believe it was any thing special as this was an undisturbed 2 barrel 332 from a Ranch Wagon. My early 58 Thunderbird 352's stamped parts are the same way. Picture shows two smooth dings. These have surface rust where the chrome cam off, NO RUST HOLES. They are partially soda blasted and when finished could be smoothed out with sandable primer. The reinforcement lip on rail is unique to 58 and 59. The center spark plug separators I believe unique to early Ford. I believe all Edsel 361 and 427 valve covers were up front. These will clear OEM adjustable rockers.

Peugeot 90X breaks cover
Thu, 04 Nov 2010Once a well kept secret in Peugeots Sport factory in Vélizy, near Paris, Peugeots new 2011, codenamed 90X, has been out and about for its first test at the Monza track. While the 90X complies with the new ACO's 2011 regulations, it still requires some considerable amount of work to be done to be ready for 2011. A curvier windscreen and slight change to the nose but the biggest changes are the new fin leading from the cockpit to the rear spoiler, aimed to offer more down force and avoid flipping in the case of a high speed crash.
