I'm here in California and I have not had any trouble with our gas and older carbs. I plan to be moving to Tn. in a few years. Is there anything I should do because I have heard horror stories about Ethanol and Old carbs. and fuel lines don't hold up well.
Any advice?
Thanks
Jess

Little bit off topic,but whats going on with paper magazines, I just read in the paper that Low-riders magazine is going away also. I don't care for those cars but paper magazines are going digital

I have a guy that has Mustang parts a little bit north of LA Calif.
It is Called MUSTANG  MD  the guy that runs it is Paul.
I have other connections out here in Calif.. not to say they are salvage yards
Just my  $.02

The  #2 Bullit car is being put back together with the correct date coded parts with a certain date ... I know personally one of the guys that is helping with car  .Here in S California it is being a tough task to do this correct to find  the parts.
Just my 0.02 cents

would the shoulder harness mounting bolts on  mustang  be smaller in Dia. and  longer than seat belt mounting bolts?

I'm building a 1967  Gt350" Clone" not to pass it off as real one. This will NOT be a half A@@ clone !
I have the Branda Roll bar for it  What bolts are used to mount to roof inner side thru ears on roll bar? I have  2 bolts that look like seat belt mounting bolts but smaller in Dia. and longer with same style of bolt head. also ideas on a "nut plate for inside roof  structure .
Thanks, Jess

I cut and pasted his reply

Ok  here is the deal I sent a reply to the Add and here is
What I asked

Hi,

Is there any drive line parts with car? are frount frame rails in tact? most of all does this car HAVE A TITLE?  is there a Shelby Id tag under the hood? photo's would be welcome.

Thank you,

Jeff


His reply:
Do have some some old documents for collecting only.  The tag was used on another car that was sold overseas.  It was made as a ealenor car so all these original shelby parts was not needed . The guy that did the ealenor was the guy before me in GA. Lots of original stuff here.

anyone know the Number to this car?

Well good to know the transmission had numbers on it (it was a slim chance) but not for that car. Maybe if you look at Eng. Block on passenger side above oil pan there could be numbers stamped in there as well  Just a LONG shot
Jess

did they have any kind of extra support on the cowl area?

I'm getting ready to add my export brace to  my car. Question is I see  a weld in support on top where  export brace sits.Is there a plate on the underside to make mounting like a sandwich  style stiffening ?
Thanks
Jess

I thought that Shelby's had there number stamped on a pad on transmission housing
Same with motors just a thought.. this guy needs all the help he can get and this might  help
