Is this an alternator or regulator diode, or both?

Thanks, then 1935 shud have dashpot and registrar has advised that it was delivered with Holley.  I will have to source as carb purchased on ebay recently has one but will require replacement. Those that held back on this carb because of aircleaner stud broken off will be glad to know it is now out and body was saved even without helicoil.  The rest is cosmetics and o/h kit.  Relief all around. Moved on it because date was ok.

Pictures I've seen, some have dash pot installed and some don't.  Which is correct for S/N #1935 is CJ apr, SA jun delivery?  It also is A/T, A/C optioned.  Also, different Holley info has cfm listed as 715 and 725, is 715 correct?

Quite certain 1935's floors are original but the date stamping under rear seat is a new one on me.  I know some of this kind of info isn't aways broadcast but is it possible to pm me the approx. location and whether stamped from inside or out. Would save some research time investigating.  Inside seems more logical but that wasn't always a factor at manufacturing level.

My car,had repo 10 spokes when purchased, with a option "deluxe wheel" on list. I'm trying to determine what should have been there for a Jun delivery.  That's what will go on until I find what should be there or what I want there.

It is my understanding that early "Deluxe wheel"  option cars received Mag-Star wheels and later production got the 10 spokes.  Is there a date or s/n time range for the transition from one to the other?  I believe this was discussed  and the information was on Forum v1.0 but my memory doesn't go that far back.

Okay, I will accept the norm, but I've bigger to fish to fry.  Lots of assembly and major things to do before screw sourcing is a priority.  Still believe fit, form and function are being served and appearance of conforming type of screws with rest of interior is better.  Owner's decision till later. 'Good talk' as they say.

1967 Shelby GT350/500 / Re: Underdash gauge pod mount

My observations on the pod screws are as follows based on my GT-350 s/n 19xx.
- The majority of interior screws Ford installed are Phillips and SA seemed to install whatever they had.
- The Shelby assembly manual figure depicts slotted screws in pod, but the radio bezel also depicts slotted.  All 67-68 radio bezels I've seen have Phillips.  Major discrepancy IMHO.
- My car came with Phillips chromed steel like the rest of the interior. I'm sticking with what it came with.  Car generally not messed with with exception of the items apparently stolen at some point in time it's rumored.  It is what it is.

Thanks for response. Original clamps long gone before my purchase.  Several rad repairs done while in AZ. Dates of repairs vibro-etched on upper tank.

Marti has 67 SB rad hoses that have staples to locate wire clamps for SJ builds.  I thought this was a 68 only thing. Are these correct for 67s?

Thanks for replies. Will order stripes.  The mirror is a tough one, is there a dyi procedure for glass removal and installing into nos or repo housing without breakage.  The last nos on ebay I saw awhile back was very $ for a nice driver.  Guess will just have to step up or use original.

1. Is there someone redoing mirror pot metal re-chroming and replacement of mirrored glass with correct date coding?

2. Is Branda still the go-to for side stripes? ie. color white and stripe accuracy.

Is it safe to say these are SJ Ford dates not SA as this would have been done by Ford?
