I have just purchased a Lola T440 in a box. Heard about the car form my racing buddies and could not resist the challenge. It has now joined my little racing stable.
The Lola is completely dissasembled, in boxes but mostly complete. In the coming weeks I will bother you fine people with questions and advice.
My first ones, not necessarily in hirarchical order:
1.) Where can I get a nose for the Lola T440 ? Anyone have a one laying around ? My option is to fork some cash to TW-Mouldings in th UK and get killed in shipping.
2.) I need the two aluminum pillow blocks ? which hold the steering column to frame. They are missing. I could have them made but figure I ask.
3.) The plan is to ad two diagonal struts going forward from the aft roll hoop to stiffen and protect. The dashboard sits on a smaller steel frame. Does the dash also need a hoop per regulations ? Any thoughts ?
Thanks for now.
