Hi All,

Does any one have a left over or extra cover for the 1967 GT350/500 shoulder harness inertia real they are willing to part with?  I am only looking for one.

Please PM me if you have one.

Thank you

Cory

Hi all,

Does anyone know this 1966 GT350?  Is it legit?  I can see a dash mounted tach, what looks like a deluxe steering wheel, quarter windows and side scoops.  I capture this image years ago and just found again.  It was time to share.  I don't recall seeing on the forum.  Anyone?

Thanks

Hi all,

I have a pair of Western Modine Radiator side straps for 1965, 1966 Mustang Shelby GT 350 radiator. They have not been altered or modified. If you have a radiator with screwed up side straps, here's your chance to pick up a pair.  Please see images.   I'd like $50 plus the ride.  Send me a message if you're interested.


Thanks

Hi all,

I have a 1965 aluminum Borg Warner T 10 side cover T10–148B.  It has a casting date molded just below the part number with a "2", four dots and 65.  I'm assuming the four dots are for April, forth month and 65 is for 1965. There's also a second "2" which I'm guessing is second shift. Any other guesses. Please see attached images.

Thank you

Hi all,

Please see attached images for original HiPo 289 Special chrome air cleaner base with large hose fitting.  It has no date code, or just a remnant of a failed date code stamping.  See image.  Also, back in the day, the base was welded on in a small spot, not sure why, other that a guess someone was experimenting on welding thin metal before another project.  There was no damage to repair where the weld was found.  The weld was smoothed out and sand blasted to blend in. There is some surface imperfections from corrosion, further authentication a 57+ year old part.  The base in painted in dark Ford Blue.  I'd like $175 plus the ride OBO.  Please send me a instant message if interested.

Thanks

Hi, all,

I have 1965 HiPo 289 flywheel with casting number C30E-6380-B with Brinell harness mark and orange dab of paint.  The 3 key features to authenticate HiPo 289 flywheel. I recently had resurfaced and found no issues, no heat cracks. The ring gear should be flipped or a new ring gear installed.   I'd like to trade for a later date code, December 1965, January February or March 1966.  What do you have to trade?

Thank you

Hi all,

I have a parking brake warning lamp kit, part number C4DZ-15A852-A1 NOS in the box.  This kit was used on both 1965 and 66 Mustangs. If your GT350H has one and the bezel is worn out or the switch is missing, this is for you.  I'd like $250 plus the ride.  Please see attached images.
Thank you.

Hi all,

I need some guidance on removing the tail housing on a Borg Warner T 10 M1 transmission. It is leaking between the tail housing in the main case. I know there's a pin needs to be knocked out in the tail housing plus four bolts.  Do I pull the shaft out that the pin is holding in?  Also, any other suggestions?

Thanks

Hi all,

I have been tinkering with several sets of rear seat belts and noticed there are actuality two different styles of plastic covers for the body anchor plate end of the seat belts.  They both perform the same function, but are oriented differently on the anchor plate.  Any ideas why the two styles?  Maybe a form of a date code? Early vs late?

In the attached image, the two covers on the left are longer and place the cover tab under the anchor, from a belt with a date code 2366 (23rd week 1966, May-ish) (correction 1-66 date code.)

The two covers on the right shorter, place the cover tab under the bolt and does a nicer job of covering the anchor plate, from a a 1-66 date coded belt (January 1966)

Any ideas?

My first guess is a small cost savings.  The covers on the right use less material and will cost a few pennies less.

Thanks

Cory

Hi all,

I believe this is an original lid based on the below listed  4 features and the info here and on NVSAAC.  Is this right?  What year does this make the lid with the wrinkle paint finish?  1968?

1) Die cast marks on underside
2) Rectangle casting mark around "COBRA"
3) The "R" curved foot
4) The "O" is wider that tall.

Thanks

Cory

Hi all,

This attached photograph was taken in 1977 at Portland International Raceway (PIR), where SAAC 17 was held in 1992.  Does anyone recognize the car? and is it a genuine GT350?  It looks like it could be. The two people standing in the photo are Norton Gaston and owner (GT350 owner) Dennis Howell (Name on car.).  Dennis is not shown in the 2011 Registry owner index.  Is this an MIA car?  It is also rumored this car is now vintage racing in California and the unknown current owner based in Sacramento.   Several of us are trying to ID the car.  Any ideas?

Thanks

Hi all,

Be advised, I expect these wheels in the attached auction (eBay No. 374524031957) by MustangMasters428 of  fame are actually the Mopar wheel with the near 4 inch backspacing.  The seller was clever to not provide well images to confirm 100%, but the two attached images outlining the differences suggest Mopar.  A fellow SAAC member and I sent a note to the seller about the back spacing with no reply, further suggesting Mopar.  If they were legit, the seller would have included the back spacing dimensions.  He has too much other details to not include, unless deliberately absent.

Get the back spacing from the seller as 3.375 before even considering these wheels.  Then there are the condition issues to consider.

Hope this helps.

Cory

On the Mustang 428 Cobra Jet site, they show two version of the 428 Cobra Jet harmonic balancer.  "...The A2 damper is slightly heavier (6.9 lbs. vs. 6.3 lbs.) and has a thicker (0.75" vs. 0.55") outer ring as compared to the A1 damper. They both have the same 7" outside diameter..."  Can anyone help me understand why Ford engineered two versions under the same part number C8AZ-6316-B?  The CJ site has received input from 428 CJ owners, claiming both A1 and A2 balancers have been found on the 68 Cobra Jet cars.  Are they both equally right?

I checked on the Ford MPC, and it provides no additional information for the two versions, both the June 1968 and May 1975 printing.  The 1975 MPC shows D2TZ-6316-A.

Hi all,

I have come across a different version of the Hertz Sports Car Club glasses. Typical glasses have the club logo on a gold background with the checkers, wheel and lions in black.  This other version, which I have not seen before,  is a negative version with background in black and the other elements in gold.  Is this other version early, late or maybe a different supplier?

Typical version on left,  other version on right in attached image.

Hi all,

I was reading on the Virginia Mustang Blog thread on the heater delete and there is a comment from a fellow hobbyist that described a speaker delete with the radio delete.  He said "... and has the gray cardboard blanks for both defroster openings and for the speaker hole..."  I have read the defroster covers are the same shape as the cardboard end of the ducts.  My question is:  What shape is the speaker delete cover?  Is it the same shape as the speaker and made from similar material to the glove box cardboard?  Does anyone have one and can post an image?

Below is the link:

I posted a similar question years ago.  Here is the link https://www.saacforum.com/index.php?topic=7906.msg66064#msg66064     Any new info?

Thanks

Hi all, I had a horn button that was missing a piece that holds sticker emblem in place.  I had my son model and print me a new version. He printed two. I have an extra if someone needs it. Five dollars and I'll send first class USPS letter.  See attached image.  The printed version is on the right.  Please send me instant message if you're interested.

Thanks

Hi all,

(Sale Pending 11-22-22)

I have here is a 1966 Ford hand/emergency/parking brake light signal warning NOS wiring.  It came out of a parking brake signal lamp kit C60Z-15A852-A for  Fairlane or Falcon.  With the adapter shown, it can also be used for Mustang.  The switch is long gone and the chrome bezel it's going to a friend with a 1966 GT350H. What's left is the NOS wiring. I hope someone can use it. I'd like $39 plus the ride. If you've priced these on popular auction sites, you will find the entire kits are hundreds of dollars.  If you just need the wiring, here's an inexpensive way to acquire it. If you're interested please send me a message.
Thank you

Hi all,

Shelby Parts and Restoration, when restoring the rear drums, puts a fresh machining on the outer edge.  Does anyone know why they are machined to begin with?  I am assuming just to round out the casting, but just this edge.  What's wrong with the rough casting?  The rest of the outside is rough.  Any ideas?  Maybe to get a better balance and less counter weight?  See attached image.

Thanks

Hi all,

Years ago I purchase these handbrake cables not realizing they are only for 1965 GT350/Mustang.  1965 uses two separate cables and 1966 uses one longer version.  It is time for someone to put on a car.  See attached images.

I'd like $250 plus the ride.  Please send me a message if interested.

Thanks

Cory
