    Howdy:

    I've tried numerous times to call the fellas at Wilcap to check on the status of the recasting of the SP tops for Stromberg 97's.

    When I actually spoke to someone two years ago, he mentioned he was working on improving the patterns. He told me to call back in 6 mons. I've called back every 6 mons. since and have gotten the answer machine without a returned call.

    Does anyone know these cats and what the deal is?

    I've I understand, he does own the rights to SP products.

    Thanks.

    I posted this on another thread on carb tops, but I guess nobody read it. Gene Scott reproduced the SP tops for 81's, 97's and 48's in the early 90's. He sold a lot of them. They are beautiful. Call Jim Gordon who is running Gene's Specialty Ford Parts business for Gene's widow.
    626-572-0938. If that number doesn't get through try 626 288 2121, or 288-2290.

    Dean:

    Wilcap also has/had the "SP" logo'd versions in his catalog two years which prompted my call. I don't know how to scan but, could provide copies if anyone wants to see it.
