1964 1/2 - 1965 / Re: ? Cowl to Hood seal Brackets

Try Ford hardware Part number 357903-S2. It's used on 64 thru 66 Mustangs for the two end brackets, qty 4.

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

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".

Wanted Ads / Looking for paint stamp for toploader trans

« Last post by DaveF on April 17, 2024, 12:03:32 AM »

I am looking for information about the paint stamp that I need for my transmission. In my case, it is a GAZ stamp. Any idea where I can get one? Thanks

Thanks Charles, mine appeared to have traces of black paint as well. Should have specified late March 66 built SJ car.

Original screws phosphate or natural?

Going to separate this discussion from the others since you asked about a different year 

Just to keep things neat

I've never tested the surface to determine the original plating. Would be a good project for someone even using the basic tests - but if you have access to one of those machines that would be great also 

Only way to tell for sure.  Often people do zinc then dully it down with a wheel acid wash since cad is not legal in allot of places though you can ship them if it were cad

I've had several of the 1969 rimblow wheels. My opinion is the reproductions are outstanding and typically work with no issues. They come from here:

Of course the same company will restore your original wheel too - for the same price. Your choice.

Given the focus here the answer would be to fix or replace your steering wheel with the original 2 spoke. IN this way you will side step the issues with the reproduction (don't know them personally) and the concern about the rim blow liner causing issues that may damage the car.

If, again remembering our focus, your car is original or restored an aftermarket wheel IMHO will just look out of place and at least half of the people who view your car will tell one another "hey look its got a aftermarket steering wheel" That could get old quikcly

At the plant likely for lining up the sub-structure in a jig to produce a subassembly

Nothing attaches there on a completed Mustang
