66-70 V8 Motor Mounts
« on: February 25, 2010, 01:25:22 AM »
Thought I would post this here since all of these basically are the same

Found this mount in a yard last week and I don't recall the last time I had one clean up so well with so many of the factory details still there. So felt I should share.

First I have to report that these pictures do not come close to showing how perfect this thing is even after being on a car since 67 (out of a 390 San Jose car).  Took a couple of minutes in a water based - heated cleaner and what you see (a little oil added for protection) is what you see.

Red Arrow - very dark wire feed weld and bluing

Blue Arrow - darkened spot weld and lighter bluing around weld

Green Arrow - machine marks (lighter) from forming the metal










Really hated to put this one on a car :(
