That may have been #2091. The car was there from 1971 to 2007. It is presently in Australia.

I bought rear replacement springs from Virginia Mustang and they were way too soft. I ended up putting the originals back in the car.

What a loss. Bob was one of those characters that you never forget. He was a true friend who would give you the shirt off of his back. The first hot laps I experienced at were in his car. When we got back in the pits, he threw me the keys.
Can't believe he is gone.

Concours Talk / Re: 67 GT350 timimg cover question

My 10/13/66 assembled GT 350 has a ribbed timing cover.

Just wondering. Is it  possible imming 1965 has a panel not original to that car. I ask, because if my car 1551 was built 6 days later than imming 1965, and mine is a flat panel, does it not seem an earlier car would also be flat?
#1551 was completed 4/18/67 and would have a flat tail light panel.

Should have a raised tail light panel if completed 5/19/67.

A car completed at SAI would have a flat tail light panel.

1969-1970 Shelby GT350/500 / Re: 1970 GT500Needs A/C replacement Parts
« on: September 16, 2022, 11:35:38 AM »
We just restored the AC system in my 67 GT 350. I had Original Air out of Florida rebuild the original compressor and purchased lines and other components from them. They were horrible to deal with. They first said they could clean the original lines and then lost them. The next story was they couldn't clean them anyway. We had to return the clutch 3 times and thr compressor twice. In hind site, I believe the clutch they rebuilt, not the compressor was always the issue but their attitude was always it was always our fault. We ended up using a new clutch.The water valve came back from them painted, not plated with the original 1967 O ring still installed. It would have never worked property.
We used R12. It is still around as is an R12 replacement which is similar but very expensive.
The end result however is ice cold air. The temperature coming out of the vents is 36 degrees. Another car I am familiar with was converted to R134 and wasnt able to achieve anything near that temperature. We didn’t do the work on that car so there are other things like a faulty water valve that can effect temperature but this is my experience.

Ask a Registrar / Early 1967 Shelby GT 350 20-inch radiator
« on: August 23, 2022, 03:07:52 PM »
My radiator guy has an early dated 11/66 W MO 20-inch radiator which would be correct for a Nov.66, Dec.66, Jan.67, and maybe Feb.67 assembled 1967 GT 350. It needs to be recored and could be configured for either an automatic or 4 speed, which is his specialty. PM me if you have interest and I will put you in touch with him.
