The Mustang Owner's Museum is having a National Mustang Day event 4/14-4/16


One of the highlights is that Chuck Cantwell, program manager for the GT350 at Shelby American will be there on 4/15.  As part of his presentation, SFM5S003 will be there also, to be as a backdrop and talking points for his discussion.

I'm used to seeing at least 65-66 289 engines with a smooth top oil pickup screen.  Does anyone know what the dimpled one is from or if it is simply an aftermarket piece?  Any advantage/disadvantage to using one with the dimples?

Thanks

Anyone found a replacement trunk weather-strip for a convertible that isn't hard as a brick?  Had the trunk lid fitting perfect, but now had to adjust the latch up to even be able to close after gluing on new weather-strip.

Anyone have a compilation of typical names used on the Utica Plant Quality Built decal that goes on the LH convertible latch handle for a '68?  My car was completed at Metuchen in late April '
68.

Thanks

Concours Talk / Sill plate finish
August 05, 2021, 12:03:21 AM
Lately I have been seeing 65-66 show cars with satin finish door sill plates.  Can anyone provide any documentation or proof that they should be satin?  Original sill plates were left natural aluminum alloy, they were not hot dip anodized like the seat side shields.  Every original I have ever seen and even NOS, a little rub with some chrome polish and the rag turns black.  Do the same thing with a seat side shield and the rag does not turn black.

My opinion is that over time, these sill plates will turn to a dull finish and corrode in some climates.  I have seen several new car images which show quite shiny door sill plates.  Attached is one such period photo o a '65 GT350 conversion.
