1967 Shelby GT350/500 / Re: Do we know who restored this beauty?
« on: February 13, 2018, 09:03:36 PM »
This car was a treat to work on.  not only was the body laser straight and dry rust free so were all the original suspension parts which were cleaned up and re-installed. In 45 years this was the best car Ive ever seen to be restored. All the parts were original and no body work was needed Its a treat when you dont have to do any body work on a car . Last car I had like that was in 1977

The current repos are aluminum and dont mount like the factory .  We dont recommend them and dont stock them.  I tell my customers that if we order one  they own it. no returns  pretty blunt about the differences before we take an order .  Not sure why they didnt make them proper.

Parts For Sale / Cobra 427 Sandcast Valve Covers
« on: February 10, 2018, 12:31:12 PM »
This is a set of super nice quality sand cast valve covers  made  by Art Francis.  His castings are way better than even factory.   Once a year I order some unfinished versions so I can make them look more authentic as far as finish.  Its usually takes 6-9 months to get them.    His  stock finish is what everyone else sells them for usually $400  set  with a coarse sanded finish.  Originals are highly mirror polished  so we prep them and then send out to get polished.  as you can see they turn out amazing. These are $425  plus the ride.  I have two sets left out of the order.   we can do paypal,  check  or MC/ViSA.  920 434 3645   jim@shelbyparts

Back then Ford dealers could punch in a part number and print out a list of dealers still showing it on their inventory.  Im guessing thats how you got it. your dealer  probably bought it from another dealer since Ford dropped the part in 1970    cool that you still have it

after discussing with Mongo  on the phone I pulled out my  Ford 1970 dated OSI   (Obsolete - Supersede)   book and found the part numbers as being Not replaced in l970  so if they were available it wasn't very long.  He had never seen any nos and neither have I and thats a lot of years between all of us

Phred:   Im not sure that this was ever serviced by Ford.    Theres is no mention of it in any of the Ford parts books that I have .  Ive never seen one since Ive been restoring these cars.  Interesting topic though
