Intake,air filters and carbs are not correct for a real M 260 setup BUT is is a really nice car. I would like to have it and straighten it out to make it a real M 260 (O.K. a stroker M 260)  Oldmics

That guy is local to me. Autohaus in Los Gatos, Ca. In fact the car is photographed in front of Campbell High School where I went many, many decades ago. He has been trying to get off this for a long time (couple years). I would also suggest going to their website and look at some other stuff, especially the 57 Ford Custom 300 roller. If I remember correctly, it was an original 12k local 6 cylinder car. The place has a hard-nosed, wheeler-dealer reputation but I think the economy is getting to them. Might be some deals there.

Who cares about originality I'd rather put couple of rear mounted turbos to that anyway.... . Great body anyhow. I'm lucky again to live so far from that. Needless to say, I'm poor too

A little pricey? Am I reading it right, that it is not even original? "Needless to say the housing was not cheap to make. It is very close to the original."
Not to mention that appears to be a Mechanical Fuel Pressure Gauge routed to the interior. Doubt if that would pass tech...
