I don't own a Shelby, but our Mach is the next best thing.

69 Mach in family since Jan. '70,  '67 since '79.

Drive 'em all the time, even in the winter when roads are clear

Air chili. Continuation chili. L oh EL oh EL!!!

How about EL EM EFF AY OH

Lol, now you got me wondering. I'll have to go dig it out of the basement and check it out.

I have a bag/kit of CS chili that I bought back when it first came out. I can't remember what year but if I had to guess, the bag is about 15+ yrs old. Think it's still good

Are they smaller in diameter, smaller in length, not as many coils?  I know the tensil strength is not as much as metal hoods.

Back in the late 80's/early 90's, when I originally restored my mach 1 to MCA rules, all the judging rule books were saying tranny dip stick tubes were painted black. I knew something was wrong when my FMX tube was light blue. But, was instructed "then" that blue was wrong.

Some of those reflect many years ago when those organizations only had one set of rules that were used for all years and makes no matter. We were only able to provide better focus and detail once we broke them out by year or groups (67-68 for example or Mustangs and another for Shelby)  many years ago when I was  given that task

Yes, I was quite aware that this was many years ago LOL

And actually it wasn't organizations,  The judging books are all MCA

You can also see where I said "Anyway, that's a different time".

I was only asking about the paint removal process if anyone knew.

LOL,  I'd still like to see if anyone can answer my question at reply #17.

The question is in BLUE

Lol, especially over the past 30 years

My question is how can I get the black paint off my FMX tube without destroying the robin's egg blue underneath?

See photos of old rule books

Lol, yea I've kept these rule books this long!

Yea, What did we miss

Am in process of remodeling commercial office space into a 8500 SF man cave.  Place where good friends can relax, sip Bourbon, shoot pool and detail their cars over our long winters.  Like to decorate with automotive themed art prints.  Curious on opinions for quintessential Ford racing examples?

1963, 64, 65 Vintage Sebring posters?

Just seeing the photos in reply #1 and that paperwork is cool stuff!!

Great to see one of the early's found!!

I was surfing CL the other day and a guy was openly selling a handful of titles

He said, "get that title for that 40's Ford you've been needing"??

He said he has open titles from the 20's-40's.

Lol, isn't that totally illegal?  I'm surprised CL didn't cancel it.

No worries, I made the same mistake about 10 yrs ago at a swap meet.  Thinking it was a CJ.  I was still learning the shapes of the manifolds.

Driver's side, The numbers are off by one digit, the rest of the #'s are identical.
C8OE-9431-B= CJ
C9OE-9431-B=Windsor

Yep, that's a C9 not a C8. Exactly whats on my 69 351W.
