Actually Dave, I was thinking that a window like in the early Mustangs would look good in that sail panel. Hank
Geez, no what am I gonna do??? Found this parked beside my garage!!!! Ain't mine yet, but it probably will be....
DAVE.... Great find outside your garage . Allways thought the interior in those years where the sharpest designed. Remember riding in one when i was 15 .
So what are your plans ?? Looks like the engine compartment is still full of iron . Interior is still all intact .
Yup, everything is there....It's not mine yet, but I guess if I want it it is... Plans are to leave it beside the garage for awhile!!!!!:LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
Many moons ago, I was about 80% done with a '65 then some fella decided he wanted it more then I did, so I sold it. This one would be done similar...windshield laid back, bit of a chop, lots of engine, and a 5 speed....and yeah, that gorgeous stock interior would stay as is, just some refrubishing!!!! I do have a big pile of CJ parts, a tri-power, lots of other old speed goodies that I've been saving for just the right car.....this could be it....I've always regretted selling the '65 before it was finished.....
Im picking up a new driver next weekend . I'll be cruising up to Flint ,Michigan to pick it up. Been stored in garage for last 20 years .
You have any of those FE parts for a S-Code layin around with dust on them .
Hmmmm. Not a numbers guy Bobby. What are S-code parts for????Quote:

Just a plain old Toploader, isn't it???? I don't have any around currently, might now where there are a few..... Most of my FE stuff is either Fairlane or Mustang, though. All the CJ parts were pirated from various Mustangs over the years, other then the Tri-Power, it started life on a Galaxie.... Think I would actually prefer the dual quads.... They are getting really hard to find.
Thats it Dave i dont know . Mostly everyone designates them and marks price up . I havent found a site that is really specific to any differences if there is any .
I also need a new 4brl carb it still has the orig intake but that they also put on a 2 brl system . Thinking it will save gas i guess .
Are you looking for an original type Autolite, or a new aftermarket carb????Quote:

Think I might have a couple of the old OEM carbs around if originality becomes a concern. No idea what they had, an Autolite 4100 i suppose??????Quote:

[QUOTE=DennyW]If Dave doesn't, I just spotted this on ebay.

Other then the part numbers on the tag, would probably be the same thing as the Mustang carb, correct???? I've got some of these around, thanks Denny... Do you remember what CFM was on which engine per chance?????
Who's making them now, Z???? Had a guy looking for one awhile back, should let him know!!!!! Thanks!!!!!Quote:

I've been told the top might flutter in the breeze at the top end with no inner structure, so my plan is to add some aluminum square tubing (1/4'' or 3/8'') bows to the bottom side with panel adhesive. A little bracing here & there til it's solid & then cover it all up with the headliner. They say that adhesive holds as well as a welded joint so we'll see if they are right. :LOL: I still plan to weld the seams. I'm too old the trust the adhesive that much. :CRY: :LOL:Quote:

Ouch, who would do such a thing to a "classic"? :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
Oh, I'm sorry!!!! Wasn't a classic, just another 'Maro. Life's improving here, got a '66 T-Bird and Bill is gone today to pick up a '67 Mustang!!!!! Now If I can talk my pal Dave T out of that little Dodge Ram pickup I'd have a home for my 440 that's been laying in pieces on the shelf for about 25 years. Should have enough stuff to keep me busy for awhile now....Quote:

The peice looks pretty good Pro, coming together. How many parts are left before the bodys done? Not too many I am thinking!
Dave = Stock restoration. :LOL: :LOL:
I don't see it happenin'. :whacked: :LOL:
Stock---what's that???? Think the Bird is going to need a bit of a trim on the roofline, a bit more layback on the windshield posts, some air bags, and fresh horsepressure... Don't know about the Mustang yet, haven't even seen it. It's a coupe and will be FE power with a 4 speed. Bill's a bit more of a purist then I am...Doubt there will be any major body mods on it....Quote:

Yup, it's a 4v Autolite Bobby!!!!
And, another surprise on the Bird....the VIN goes 6Y83Q----now for us Blue Oval guys, I believe the Q, 5th digit being the engine code, refers to a 345 HP 428 CI engine.....???????
Now, I just gotta hope my info is correct and it's the original engine in the car as I was told it was.....
Dave Q is a biggie i know that part for stangs . Did you get the bill of sale yet . Dont waste time looking buy buy buy . Thats the way uh huh i like it LOL . Wowza you have the find of the year too. i Love this site so many great rodders showing the way .
Title has allready been to the courthouse and switched to my name!!!!!Quote:
