Vitesse front cross bar


Recommended Posts

Can someone tell whether this cross bar etc will fit a 1967 Mark 1 Vitesse?  If not, what are the differences?  I'm not sure the brackets on the top are in the right place.

Thanks

I had to replace mine after a ding at Thruxton.    I found it was useful to make up a 'jig' from a pallet to support the 'new' part, and hold it at the right height and alignment while I welded it on.

Use the dimensions  quoted in the WSM to ensure it's on straight!

Doh! My chassis is currently upside down while I'm cleaning it.  Of course the two radiator brackets are present on the top side.

You could always have an under-slung radiator... improved cooling...
