Hi Bo, I talked with the owner of 5S498 today and asked about the dash cutout. He said the cutout is no longer there but when he stripped the...
If you haven't already, email Howard Pardee about this. If he has contact info for the owner of 1855 he will put you in touch with them.
I work with the owner of 5S498 which is also listed in the Registry as possibly being the car in Redline 7000. He's not much of a club guy, in...
Thanks Kenn. The Avator is a pic of my actual tach that I just made an animated image of with a sweeping needle
Ok, here are the pics. In all cases of the image pairs my original manual is on the left and the repop is on the right. Hopefully the pictures...
Vern, I believe the repop I have has the "hole" on the right side filled in also. I will dig both manuals out tonight when I get home from work...
Hi Ken, When I first bought the car in 1987 GL was rumored to be the original owner. I didn't pay too much attention to this but as I located...
In addition to what Vern nicely describes there is also a "punch mark issue" on the lower left side of the right page of the center section, near...
Plus if you are going to have the engine balanced without the counterweight, you may as well install a double roller chain.
If you haven't had the shifter rebuilt yet and determine it's the problem I highly recommend Bill Heeley. Bill Heeley 3621 Mt. Olney Lane...
I believe Cloyes still makes the HiPo 289 crank gear with the hole for the roll pin. IIRC the Cloyes part# is S351.
If you want it to look like a real 66 GT350 there should be nothing in the scoop opening.
I was curious if this had any car connection so asked Duesenberg about. Looks like it is just a coincidence but possibly Mike Campbell did have it...
While I hate to say "never" concerning early Shelbys, I will say I have never seen an original 65-66 belt that narrowed down at the latch like...
Black anodized rivets were used on the 66 inner quarter window panels. There is no need to remove the Shelby VIN tag to verify the Ford VIN. I...
Thanks Mike, guess I should have looked at the site first! BTW, this is Dave, not Mark (Hov).
If you like email me your info and I will post it on the 65 GT350 website For Sale/Wanted section. http://www.1965gt350mustang.com/forsale.html
That's what I was thinking at first but most 66's did not come with lockers and still have the Shelby specific tag numbers.
This subject brings up another question, why are the 65-66 Shelby tags stamped with different numbers than HiPo tags? Only the Shelby tags seem to...
Hi Bo, thanks for the info, very interesting. I know you and I have discussed the Koni part number thing before, Howard didn't mention anything...
FWIW, just heard back from Kelsey about the new repop Blue Streaks. Here's what he had to say and a pic:
Yeah, the second owner only had the car for about a year. It was their daily driver and they had to sell because his wife was pregnant and could...
Thanks. I still remember the snowfall that year. I was a sophomore in HS and IIRC when all was said and done we had more than a foot, closer to...
This subject came up in the discussion about reinforced shock towers. I asked Howard Pardee about this and here is his reply: 1. Konis. There...
Thanks to all who participated in this interesting discussion. I just heard back from Howard Pardee on this subject and here's what he had to say:...
