65 Roadster Mark 3
 
Exterior Accessories

In a few sections later you will find the “Standard Parts List” which details exactly what parts come standard with the Mk3 roadster kit.  The exterior accessories that come with your kit are original 1960’s era parts or exact, but modern replicas.

 
 

Fuel System/Gas Cap
The Roadster kit includes the vintage Aston LeMans gas cap, fuel lines, clamps and hoses needed to adapt the high-pressure fuel system from the Mustang donor.  The donor parts used include the fuel tank and neck, integral high-pressure fuel pump, safety impact cut-off fuel pump switch, and the vacuum sealed factory gas cap.  We put the threaded factory gas cap under the beautiful Aston aluminum roller cap for modern safety.
 

Three Point Roll Bars

Standard with the kit you get a three point. 0.120” wall steel, competition roll bar.  The roll bar mounts directly to the frame with included stainless steel fasteners.  We’ve seen many versions of roll bars out there, most are optional, some are purely cosmetic (yikes!), ours is designed right and works when needed (just ask Dave Smith).

We decided that this part is an integral safety feature and like all exterior and body parts, makes or breaks the period correct look of the car, that’s why we make it standard on our kit.  The roll bars are powdercoated gloss black standard.  We also offer chrome coating as an option.
 

Windshield, Lighting, and Mirrors

The kit comes with the expensive chrome-on-brass tinted windshield.  There are only three manufacturers in Britain of these windscreens and one in the U.S.  We have recently paid to develop tooling to make our own windshields due to the fact that the original suppliers can’t keep up with our volumes.  Our new windshields are the highest quality parts on the market. They are extruded brass frames, coated in chrome and including modern DOT safety window glass.

The kit comes with original British style lighting and fasteners.  These include the expensive LucasÔ twin filament red tail-lamps, amber turn signals, license plate light, and headlamps.  The original chrome “Bullet style” racing mirror comes in the kit along with the classic pedestal mount rear view mirror.

 
     

The kit includes high-quality trim parts like the L amd T-shaped chromed brass handles, the twin red Lucas tail-lights, and vintage license plate light.
 

Trim Accessories

You get the original chrome latches and handles (L-shaped for hood and T-handle for trunk, all keyed alike), side louvers, front and rear quick-jack bumpers w/fasteners, and competition hood pins.  A high quality hood hinge is an option.
