I have to agree with Lou.....nice looking car for not having very many other U.S type vehicles in your part of the planet.

(I'd still like to get my hands on one of those RHD oil pumps, even if it was a dead one.)

Good job on the shock tower area. Your guy is doing a nice job, and in a timely manner as well.

So many restoration projects become cash cows getting stretched out for years by some shops costing tens of thousands of bucks more than necessary.

Here are a couple of photos of an RHD SL6 oil pump.
I worry about flow restriction thru those fittings but , it works.
Bet we could do something like this... with a little bit of sawing, drilling & welding. :twisted:

Now back to the topic at hand... nice looking set-up!
