Last time I went through my 4300 the kit was easily available but not sure it is now. It was 20 bucks.

Still available, with updated ethanol compatible parts.

Don't know of any good rebuilders, but just did a C8ZF-D myself and it was fairly simple.  What exactly is leaking?

Brian put on a clinic for sure!

Nathan and I will be there!

Lots of Taiwan metal in those pics.

Expensive transmission missing from that one.

We need to get the word out about this show, it's an excellent venue, great time of year and the concours is SAAC-national sanctioned!  Great to have a 2nd option now to take a car to other than a national convention!

When checking the knee pad, original Ford holes in the metal part were usually oval shape.  If they're round, a previous owner likely drilled them.

i'm thinking that shade of blue looks little light for night mist

Color change from Lime Gold

The correct extension would be hard to find, but looks like aftermarket available:

I'll pass this over to Chuck, I have never seen this before. I was under the thought Peter designed these areas himself. Very interesting, thanks for posting this.

+1, I've sent the doc over to Peter.

Definitely referring to competition models.

The first 3 cars had already been ordered in Sept '64, before Chuck started, which was around Halloween '64.

Jeff, thanks for looking. Yes, believe the bolt I posted is from AMK, got the photo off of ebay. I actually had one of the cursive "F" bolts Bob mentioned, will have to cut the end off a little but otherwise will work great.

Check to make sure it's the right size first.  The cursive f bolt is most commonly used at the distributor hold-down and seen them on the ends of oil pans too.  The coil bracket to block is a larger (thicker) size bolt.
