Iowa's 5F09K project

Cool, your car definitely falls into the Arvinode time period.

Not sure if they sell the H-pipe also.

Call Joe Tonieto at Waldron's and he'll help you out. I think he's making the H pipes now.

Next time get a clamshell type spring compresser. They work great and easy to use. You can get cheaper ones at harbour freight and they work fine too. Wayyy safer.

Yep

Should be only one size of the 2+2 emblems.

I thought that NPD had the exclusive on the Arvinode system?

Are the "H" pipes different from the Arvinode to the later type system?

Waldron's is making them and they are being distributed by NPD and several other vendors now.

There is only one size of H pipe.

OK, When I bought my later style system (from MOTIVE INDUSTRIES)it was complete with the "H" pipe and was pretty nice but lacked the correct clamps and had to be massaged a little to fit and my restorer added some welding/blueing to make it look more authentic.

I didn't realize that Waldrons was THE manufacturer of the reproduction Arvinode system....

You asked a question about the earlier cars having different fender emblems and you are correct as earlier built cars did have a shorter emblem and I don't know when the change came but my car is Aug.64 built car and has early emblem on fender but it is a coupe.Maybe some of the others can shed some light on the subject also as I don't know about the fastback having different emblems.

He was asking about 2+2 emblems, not the coupe/convertible emblems.

Dave, One thing you don't have on your list is a correct, restored 9" rear end......why is that?? (LOL)

Anyway this is the FIRST place I'm trying our new computer......

As far as some of the parts you are searching for:

Carb:I'd contact Jon at Pony carbs and get him to build you a "clone"-they are VERY NICE! Distributor you might try looking up Chuck at Distributor Dynamics-he specializes in FORD distributors and may have a suitable unit for you.as for the "H" pipe for your exhaust it just might come along with the GREAT Arvinode system that is on the market-otherwise you can get one separate-I'm not sure if the Arvinode system comes with the correct clamps (and hangers for that matter)(my later dual system I got from Motive Industries did not)so we had to get them separate.Hopefully someone else will chime in on some of the other stuff!!-Rick
