1967 Shelby GT350/500 / question for the experts
« on: May 06, 2020, 07:55:53 AM »
Hi Gents,
I am doing a clutch job on a 67 350 and want to replace the equalizer arm as the pivot holes are all hogged out. Car has a 289 K code HiPo in it and I see where the equalizer arm is unique to the k code vs a regular 289.

The car has Tri-Y headers on it.

Is the equalizer arm for the K code differently shaped to clear the original K code exhaust manifolds (which I know were differently shaped compared to the non-K code exhaust manifolds)?

Can I just buy a new non-K code equalizer bar since this car is running Tri-Y's?   

TIA

You may want to state which version you need. Long or short jaw type.

Hope this helps

Nobody could ruin a car like George Barris could.   :P

...i would say the Chip Fooseball on the Looseball is running a very close 2nd place. With the Gas Flunky's in hot pursuit placing third....

Thanks to all of you for helping. Much appreciated.

I will be selling my pod soon once I determine what to ask for it.

thanks again

Curt McKim at MeWheels does Magnum 500 restorations using (replating) your original rim shells.  I do not have his most recent contact info but it is out there via google I think.

Were the gauge pods available through / listed in any of the Shelby parts books?

The reason it has no holes is that I do not think it was ever used/mounted. There does not appear to have any witness marks where the gauges mount.

I heard that these were offered in the Shelby parts book? but not sure. Can anyone please confirm either way?

Also, does anyone know if reproductions ever offered in fiberglass?

TIA

Hi Guys,
I will take some photo's of it tomorrow in 'as found' condition and post them. The forecast is supposed to be sunny in my area (very rare for upstate New York area), so you will will be able to decide for yourselves the 'look' of it.

Thanks,
Mark

1965 GT350/R-Model / Shelby Gauge Pod
« on: April 21, 2018, 05:34:42 PM »
Hi,
I have a fiberglass gauge pod that I believe has never been used. Trying to determine if it is an original item.

When viewed from the backside, it has rough fiberglass that can be seen (mostly in the 'middle' where the gauges mount) as there is also fiberglass matting which covers the upper and lower areas.

The outside of it is smooth for the most part. I would call it a flat to semi flat black paint on it.

No holes are drilled anywhere in it (so I do not think it was ever used/mounted).

I think the previous owner put what I believe to be original black wind lace around the entire edge of it. I slightly moved it to the side where the ends of it meet and found that it can be easily removed. Maybe it cam with it from the factory? It looks good on it, but not sure it is original or not. 

Quite dusty as it was sitting for decades, so I am going to photo it as is and then probably wash it and photo it again.

Any info out there on original fiberglass pods?
thanks in advance.
