Wanted to Buy / WTB: '65 GT350 gauge pod
March 23, 2024, 01:14:34 AM
Looking for a nice original gauge pod for a 5S4xx car.  Just the pod, have tach/oil gauge.  Some minor repair/restoration needed is ok.

Thanks

NOS instrument cluster for a '68.  Very nice overall, plastic chrome is one of the best I have seen.  There are some imperfections in the black painted areas as shown which could be touched up.  This one has the back side painted black, originals usually were white.  Otherwise, exactly like an assembly line piece with FoMoCo molded numbers and chrome edge around the bright lights indicator.

$1k, shipping included to US address

Looking for a good used fixed a/c idler pulley assembly for a '68 390/428.  This is the one that mounts below the compressor.

Original Ford p/n C8AZ-8678-B

Wanted to Buy / WTB: Good used front bumper for 67-68

Looking for a presentable original front bumper for a 67/68.  Something like a 7 or 8 out of 10.  Needs to be straight, no cracks/rusty areas.  Light spotting and a few scratches here and there are ok.

I'm looking for a program or an original participant listing for the 1969 NHRA nationals in Indianapolis. 

Anyone have any info on what I should be searching for or might know a source to find the participant list?

Very nice restored Hi-Po distributor 5MB (December 1965, 2nd week).  Completely cleaned and detailed, machined surfaces as original.  New primary wire, motorcraft condenser, replacement points.  Tested/tuned on Sun distributor machine, curve chart included.  $1500 shipped to US address.

Excellent condition original 1967 - 68 Mustang/Shelby dash pad, original black color.  From a '67 car, but can be modified to work on a '68 by cutting the notch for VIN plate.

No sagging, no cracks, studs intact, no broken areas in radio speaker holes.  Just a super nice original pad, becoming very difficult to find.

There is no correct reproduction, so finding a nice original is the only option to get this part right.

****SOLD*****

Can provide higher resolution pics.

Up For Auction / 64.5 Pace Car on BaT
April 09, 2023, 08:43:32 PM
I've listed a 64.5 Mustang Pace Car on BaT.

I helped restore a carburetor for a fellow owner in Canada recently.  It's a hipo carb, so quite valuable.  If I declare the true worth for insurance, I assume I'll have to declare that as the value also.

Is it possible for the owner of this carb to avoid paying taxes to have something they already own sent back to them?

Can't see anywhere on USPS or other forms to call that out.  It's not really a gift.

Thanks

SAAC Forum Discussion Area / Clutch rebuilders
March 27, 2023, 01:16:02 PM
Could have sworn there was a discussion recently about clutches and someone mentioning a place (in Texas?) that can rebuild original clutch discs and pressure plates? 

Any recommendations?  For a '65 GT350.  I have an original pressure plate and disc.

Checking to see if anyone is close to Simcoe, Ontario that might be able to help with the parts purchase.

No longer needed, seller backed out.

Just a heads up that Chuck Cantwell will be in Concord, NC at the Mustang Owner's Museum for National Mustang Day.  The event is April 14-16.  5S003 is also planned to be there for Chuck to have as a backdrop/talking point for his presentation.

1965 GT350/R-Model / Archway Motors pics
February 14, 2022, 01:27:28 AM
Snagged these off facebook.  Looks like a late '65 and a carryover...  Bill Collins might be interested in the pics as his 006 sold new at Archway.
