Qty 4. Would it be 2?  Maybe just a typo or mistake  since there was two used per car

Try Ford hardware Part number 357903-S2. It's used on 64 thru 66 Mustangs for the two end brackets, qty 4.
No and yes. Two "brackets" and four "screws" (unless you drop one or the other).

One way to solve the dilemma is to use weatherstrip adhesive and make sure any adhesive that squeezes out is wiped off so it can not be seen.  ;)
You bet. I prefer "3M Black Super Weatherstrip Adhesive" - 08581 (2 oz tubes at Amazon, about $10). You can "attempt" to mask the area with blue painters masking tape.
(I use 3M08581 adhesive last weekend on a neighbors security light fixture that needed its "internals" attended to. The original fiber gasket was destroyed when it came apart.)

1969 Mustang / Re: Steering wheel
« Last post by Bob Gaines on April 17, 2024, 11:49:04 AM »
Something to consider when having a rim blow steering wheel restored is that most restorers are not aware that the assemblyline steering wheel plastic is not black but a very dark gray. It is meant to match the properly painted dark gray metallic steering column and dash paint. It only makes sense that the factory would match things up. The mis match of a fresh restored but done black wheel is very obvious when installed connected to a properly painted dark gray metallic steering column. If more people would request the right look then more wheel restoration companies would do it right. 9 times out of 10 I find this when concours judging a restored car. Yes there is a deduction although small.

On the front bow weatherstrip, should the weatherstrip use weatherstrip adhesive to bond to the bow and then the weatherstrip retainer screwed on or No glue/ weatherstrip adhesive, just the retainer? Weatherstrip adhesive makes sense but may not be correct. Thank you

5/16"

Ball on both ends.

Looks like 289 302 type but different length.

Looks like 581S or 5116 series on the Smith Bros. Site.

Given that you have a later 66 car I would say they were P & O

It documented in this forum's library under topic "Mustang Hardware Spreadsheets 64-66". There are two Excel Spreadsheets there, on by "application" the other by "part number".
