I did the loosen the nut, slight pressure upward with legs, trick and it was out in 2 minutes. ( I did use a socket extension and hit that with the hammer).

^^^ +1 Me too, did take couple hard raps with the hammer

Does DeadNutsOn take alternator cores in exchange or just sell new units outright?

  Deck lid on the early cars.  Yes, mine had them too.  But, I had to delaminate the glass from the metal underliner to rebond it.  Lost the number on the deck lid then.

Sorry for the image quality/clarity but shows the location...

For others, as Ruben already knows, here is a shot of the coil in the intended position on top of the right side of the intake...

Just saw this thread, here are a couple images.  main focus is the bypass and overspray on intake, other aspects may or may not be good reference...

JD: The riveted nut plate was on the lower side scoop. I apologize if If that was a confusing statement.

Keith, I understand.

Sorry all if my comment wasn't clear, I was referring that comment to the end cap image that "GT500#1594" posted.

Yes, see attached, the one(s) you have and described are a variation as well regarding the lower scoops.

Dang - that looks like something they'd use in a operating room!!

I thought the FM radios were not available until March of '67.

The photos you posted appear to have the numbers on the back side - yes?

Most I've seen had them on the front side and have a tendency as Rod pointed out to be sanded off during re-paints.

Will look for an image...see attached in the general area of the green oval.

That's good to know..

I have two other double digit cars here and they appear to have part numbers..

Perhaps later on down the line the vendor changed and no part numbers were on them?

Vendor change or different vendor.

As a side note, as on the early cars, there was one screw at/near the very bottom, later cars the end cap "tails" got 3 screws.

Not to steal Jay’s thread but what do I have? These are off #1594. They make zero sense in the 67 Shelby world! As far I know, they’ve never been replaced? I know the two previous owners and they never did any replacements? The lower scoop looks legit but with no part number. The upper has j nuts on it no studs and only three? The end caps have miniature rivets holding but plates for bolts instead of studs again! Crazy!!

I think the scoops are a version that was used. See attached for location of part number on upper scoop.

I've not seen the riveted "nut" on an end cap, others will know more.

IT LIVES!! congratulations.

(yes the exhaust trim is what I would expect on your car too)

Hi 68krrrr,

I don't suppose you could post a larger picture of your Marti Report so we could actually read it?  It would be interesting to see some of the information on it, like build dates and such.  Thanks in advance.

It is typically advised to not show the Ford VIN when/if you do that - but it's already the most readable part of the image you already posted, so... ;-)

I tried to contact the GT40 registrar Greg Kolasa but never got a reply. Does he have a new e-mail address?

Try again, sometimes there is a delay in responding, or they have not looked in a SPAM folder as new e-mails sometimes go there.

I think there were variations throughout the day ...... !

Now that's probably very true and very funny
