CSX 2095 coming up for sale - good photos

[phlip99]

Coming up for auction in the US - CSX 2095.
A nice collection of photos showing lots of details.

Good to see that, after a lot of mucking about, it's been restored to standard - note - even correct PVC hood !!

Fancy owing this for 3 years and putting just 10 miles on the clock - what a waste!!!

Great detail pictures as you say, did just the early car's have the dipswitch in the footwell or was it just LHD cars?

I didn’t realise that the basic 289 Mk2 had twin four barrel carbs. I thought that was for the guys going racing and maybe the early FIA’s before they went to four twin chokes.
Ref the dip switch looks like the good old Lucas item. I used to prefer that on an old Austin but it’s a bit inconvenient if you need to change gear at that moment.

The twin Carter AFB intake setup was a Shelby option (C4OZ-6B068-E, also homologated as an amendment). In fact the aluminium 4V hi-riser manifold was also an option so the standard spec would be the hi-po cast iron manifold and Autolite carb; not many owners have left it like that.
