Hi guys, I recently had some good friends who are certified MCA judges come by and check out my '69 Mach 1. I'm getting it ready for the Savannah MCA show in October. My car was built in June '69 at Metuchen. It's a factory air car, with a 351W and automatic. The car was disassembled when I bought it, so there's not a lot of references to go by. Since my car had factory A/C, would it have had a fan clutch when it was originally built? Right now, it has a fan shroud, but has the standard fan extension instead of a fan clutch.

No clutch fan on that application (thought we covered this in another tread) In later years its not a direct - all AC cars get clutch fans and all non AC cars get non- clutch fans
Buildsheet sheets indicate the original fan which confirms application and the type ;)

Ok, so the car is correct then. Given how rough of a life this Mach probably had, I'd say that original buildsheet ended up in the trash by about 1971. :P

Here is a cropped buildsheet that you should be able to use as documentation - need more just let me know
C8SE-B - hope this helps.

Great, thank you!! I'll double check what's on the car, but it seems like it may very well be the correct setup.

Great hope so - another thing you'll not need to find or look for
For others it appears that the fan is a T-bird piece and was used on 69 Boss 302's also

Is there a guide to what all the codes mean. I have my original build sheet and understand many of the letter codes.
Thanks Mark

No - though a couple of people have considered doing a book.
Most of what is written in the post 67 years are pretty easy to figure out (some might require a MPC) especially compared to the 65-66 ones and there are a couple of efforts that have covered allot of the codes just through cross checking and comparing
In some cases the "code" is simply a mark indicating the option was ordered, sometimes the code tells you what style or color of option was chosen.
If you want start a new thread - post a picture/scan of the buildsheet or the section you have questions about and we'll try and help

Thanks Jeff. I will follow up with a new post Mark
