Please let me know if you can help -

For a 65 trunk battery car with Cragars - it there supposed to be a mustang ratcheting wrench and a Cragar wrench in the trunk?  or just the Cragar wrench?

thanks in advance..

Gentlemen -

Is there a proper or "correct" hardware to attach the grill emblem on a 65 GT 350?  Any pictures would be helpful also !

Thank you,

Dave

I've seen this sticker applied in several locations - it there a "correct" placement?  Can some one share a picture?

Thanks -

Dave

Is this bolt painted?  Seems it would have been installed prior to paint and be painted -

thanks

All -

Since you all have been so helpful with answering quite a few of my questions - thought I'd post some progress pictures of 296 today  - still a bit to do / detail etc..  comments welcome - good bad or ugly !

Dave

we are nearing the point of painting the side stripes on 5s296 -

From the attached picture is looks like the stripe was masked off where the quarter panel line  meets the door striker panel and proceeds along that line on the top of the rocker panel - is this correct?

For the front of the door  - is there a detail that anyone can share? was there overspray in the area between the front of the door and back of the fender?  or was this area masked off as well?
Does the stripe have a return on the door and on the fender?

Thanks in advance for the help !

Dave

Gentlemen- were the rear stump painted black? Or natural with the Cragars?

The picture is my drums after restored with no paint -

Thanks !

Gentlemen -

does a 65 GT 350 have the noise suppression capacitor on it as delivered from the factory?

Thanks,

Dave

I need a good original fan shroud with the rubber piece stapled in - PM me if you have one ..

thanks,

Dave

I replaced the under hood harness on my 65 - obviously the oil light is no longer hooked up as the oil pressure gage line takes it's place. And I don't have a picture from prior to taking everything apart...

What was done at SA with this now "extra" wire when they installed the oil pressure line?

thanks in advance for your help !

Dave

I have two right side valve covers- there is a difference in the PCV opening- these are for 5s296-
Both have the buddy bar name cast on the inside-
Which is correct?
Any idea why different?

Thanks ,

Dave

Experts...

Is the water neck gasket painted black? Or is there a proper color for this gasket? And where to get one? 
The fel pro ones are blue/

Thanks,
Dave

What was the original finish on the front disc brake calipers for a 65?

Dave

Another question-

What size rivets or screws were used to attach the package tray to the interior at the bottom?
My car had nothing in the holes..

Dave

I read on vintage mustang forums that the drive shaft loop attached to the seat belt bolts ( first picture of a 65 I used to own - mid 300 sn) ;  second picture shows same area with holes where mine was attached on the car we are putting back together # 296.,,

Which is correct ?

Thanks in advance ( hope this wasn't a question I should have asked a long time ago !)

Dave

Forum experts -

Were there any markings on the freeze plugs ?  Was the material brass or steel?


thanks again in advance for your help and knowledge !

Dave

All - what is the "correct" color and material of the intake gasket on the heads?   I know the front and back are cork.
and - what is the best source for the intake gaskets?

thank you -
