A side note but on topic, go find a good graphics shop and have them reproduce the college sticker to add to your re-chromed bumper.

Thank you Pete for the rapid response.  I assume the deadener is black because it was applied after the red oxide?

original deadener example (generous application, mind you) from #2139 early March car.  FYI

One part fits the "Runabout" with the fullsize hatch & one fits the sedan with the little trunk lid.
Real important for the Pinto judges.

Nice to have you back Poor Ron.

An alternative gasoline stabilizer is: "Stor-N-Start".
A marine grade & military spec product with a MUCH longer life.

1968 Shelby GT350/500/500KR / Re: Header bow rust fix
« on: November 20, 2020, 10:36:43 PM »
The front header bow is some kind of alloy material which deteriorates; not rust, however.  Similar to what happens to aluminum marine parts through galvanic corrosion.  Tough to repair.  If replacing, understand there are variations from year to year having to do with the latch pivots and the hooking mechanisms, as well as some hardware.

Early on the FBI was investigating the Shawnee operation and cars.  You might try them; probably their OK City office?

Right, Tim; non-CJ.  I learned well after Jon's passing about throttle shafts and base plate variations.

Corey:  It stands to reason that the dashpot and bracket should be the same for a 68 Holley, regardless of 350 or 500.  The relevant dimensions of the carb would be the same.  I looked through my pictures of original cars, but didn't find a shot that will help you.

Late to this topic, but including a photo of the correct '68 500 dashpot and bracket.  Notice the bellows does not have an external coil spring.  Ford complicates this part by continuing the part # (without changing the engineering revision suffix) when servicing the "long arm"/plunger version that was used on CJ and B9, etc.

Now, the question of 350 application and tranny---I have not studied.

1968 Shelby GT350/500/500KR / Re: 68' Vert - rear glass seal
« on: November 04, 2020, 08:35:33 PM »
I'm guessing from your photo that the top has shrunk over time, when combined with old silicone, the hinge split.  The glass silicone hinge can be refurbished, but the shrunken vinyl will have to taken into account, or you have the same old stress as before. 

Your original rear glass is quite desirable; please keep it if you replace the top.

If a C6, then retaining clips are different, in case anyone is wondering.

They are S7MS part numbered.  I think the lines are the same, but the coolers have some differences.
