Patience is the biggest virtue I have and try to work on every day.
Does anyone on the site already have a Fusie 4 speed car?
I recall a black one a great years ago and I know @Aidan1976 was working on one.

yes i'm still working them up , just call my metal stamping guy today just waiting
for a good time to stamp these out . i'm only starting with like 50 stampings and that is a very low number for my guy , he likes hundreds at a time . way out of my sales range i feel . unless someone what a lot more then they have cars for . maybe future builds ? lol . i'm trying to get them done . its just , i'm low man on the totem pole , and have to take everyones sh....t . lol . i'm working it , metal prices have sky rocketed since no more china crap . but everyone that buys mine will not have to pay the price levels i've seem on them either .

and guys watch what that clutch peddles came from , hp's are needle bearing'd and others are plastic bush'd . plastic bushings are lite duty only . no beefy clutch hats or pressure plates . i bought some and i'm having a hell of a time getting a better bushing in them , unless i machine a new bore in them .
Like I said, Im game for 3 of them if I can afford it lol. There is a guy over on FABO that is making bronze/brass pedal bushings also. I believe the '69+ pedals are all needle bearing but I have to double check.
I’d be interested in a set of pedals and hump just in case.
Would love a 4 speed Furry but would prefer an original manual trans car

Do you have a list of people that want this kit? I had expressed to buy a kit and still would like to.
How will you fill the 50-ish orders made? Who is above and below the line?

Never thought about it but I too hope he has a list of who was interested in what.
I only need the hump and requested such early on. Guess we shall see how this all plays out in the end.

Add a Zerk fitting to them. The factory never did it but they should have.

Might do one day

I'm in for 2 humps please.
I feel that the plastic pedal bushings would be up to the job fir all but the most extreme clutch setup.
That is as long as they have some grease. 2 cents
