1967 Mustang / 67 buck tag

« Last post by preaction on Today at 12:30:48 AM »

I came across a 67 Metuchen build  with a buck tag and until the Marti report comes out I wanted to ask if any one recognizes any of these that are stamped on the Buck tag. 7T02S  A4? I'm not sure about the 4,  SK P10 it has power disk brakes listed as DB, MC FD It is a Wimbledon white car with tan deluxe interior and upper and lower consoles.

1968 Mustang / Re: 68 Master Cylinder/Lid Finish

« Last post by J_Speegle on May 08, 2024, 11:03:10 PM »

Back to the master cylinder.  At Birmingham I got dinged for a silver cap and not black.  Before I paint the cap I have or get a second cap to paint black,  I just wanted to confirm that silver cap for my car is correct as I thought we decided in earlier posts on this thread.

The MCA grading sheet gives black or zinc dichromate as the options,  not silver.

Not sure were the group came to that conclusion (caps not being black with the rest of the master cylinder) but IMHO and from experience they should be painted as a unit black with cap to reduce the chance of the master cylinders rusting while in Fords control. On power brake cars the master cylinder and booster were painted as a unit - together

A bunch of spring clamps like these.  https://www.homedepot.com/p/Anvil-2-in-Spring-Clamp-99691/302755764


I wrap it all around.  Fold over the edges.  Put all the clamps in place.  Go around and make the slits as needed in the corners. 
Then undo a couple of clamps at a time and glue that area.  Do small sections as you move around.  As stated, glue only goes on the backside.  Leave the clamps in place until the glue is good and dry.

I had this happen years ago. Hard to get the deluxe door panel off on a 1969 with the door closed due to the dash blocking access to the front of the panel. I unscrewed the lock knob a lot so I had more travel on the knob and then I moved the knob up and down repeatedly until the door actually unlocked. I found the problem was a little spring on the lock mechanism had broken causing it to jam up.
