With sheer luck over the past few days, I've acquired some very rare pieces for my car. First up would be the rotary engineering dual weber 32/36 DGEV (they are actually stamped DGAV, but I hear they are DGEV because they are electric choke, but I'm not sure about that). I got that, and it seems that I won't be able to use them because it was from a REPU, so likely it was made for the 4-port 13b instead of 12a. I'm going to be selling this, I'll post it up for sale once I get confirmation of which engine it's for.

Next up is what looks to be either a replica or original IMSA front bumper. Pretty stoked about that one. Needs a few patches where it cracked but for the price I paid I'd never complain. Anyhow, thought I'd share.

 

Nice score I have that manifold in my basement minus the carbs. I'd kill for that front bumper

 

We are thinking about making some replicas, if they are really hard to come by. It's great and all to have a unique piece to show off, but I think it's better to be able to let others enjoy the same pieces.

 

Nice find. I might be interested in that intake and carbs if it is for a 4 port 13B.

 

Nice parts. If it is an original IMSA front bumper, it will be a three piece polyurethane bumper. I have a brand new stored away at my parents house

A while back i was going to let someone make a mold of it so they could duplicate it, but it was determined it would be too difficult for them due to it being polyurethane. It also risked damaging the original bumper, which I wasn't okay with.

 

Yeah it is a three piece, flexible stuff (frp I think). So that makes it difficult to make a mold?

 

Then it is an IMSA bumper. I don't know. That is what the person looking to make the mold told me. I'm not too familiar with the process, but just from thinking, yeah I would definitely think so. It could possibly easily get distorted and not be straight, but like I said, I dont know.

 

I am looking for a beat up Kaime front damn to make a mold from. I will test fit it to mine then make about 10 more for others. If you know someone willing to let me borrow it they can get a freebee


BTW, good score on parts.
