1966 Mustang / Re: Strange Build Date 10 V

« Last post by J_Speegle on May 15, 2024, 07:53:47 PM »

Thank you for the confirmation. 

In that case a very late build. I believe the last day of Mustang production at Dearborn was 8/12/1966.

Of course the 10V was the date guesstimated back when the order came in and the Aug 12th would have been a date arrived at from different sources and reasons 

As we know and accept the date stamped on the door/warranty tag is often not the build date, the date the car was completed or even started on.

When new they were more on the glossier side of semigloss spectrum however after a few heat cycles the paint typically dulls down .

+1 as we've mentioned many times before 

Just a couple

Bob,

Good to know, thanks for the response.  Mine came back smelling like gas had been in it so I assume that was the test run leftover fumes.  Best to verify before trust I guess.  Wish my motor was done to make sure but that's the choice I made.

Team, 

Drew podjednic from air fuel spark recommended all state carbs in New York.  www.allcarbs.com.  Jarrod was great to deal with and my 70 Mach 1 4v D0OE-AD autolite came back looking amazing.  They test them all before sending back.  However I don't have my motor done to verify anything.  Just my experience so far.

I had recommendations to send my last 4300 there too . It has been about 2 years ago . It looked great when I got it back however It didn't run or idle well like I expected given it was to be tested on a running engine prior to shipping.  I was waiting on the carb to come back because it went on a sold car that the new owner knew that the carb was being rebuilt . I understand that the new owner had problems with it too. I don't know if the problem got solved .
