Wow, thats as low as I've seen one go in a long time, I'll bet Jim wasn't very happy with the outcome of that one....

Murf, all 8 cylinder manual transmission cars used the same radiator.

I've got a Ford tooling hood on my kar, it had the holes pre-drilled.

Sent you a PM...

vinegar and water... don't get it on your paint...
If that doesn't work I've had real good luck with with a glass cleaner that comes in an aerosol can, I think it is called liquid glass or something like that.
And if that doesn't work you might try Eastwoods glass polishing kit. I've got a very slightly used polishing portion of their scratch removal kit I'll sell ya for 1/2 of Eastwoods price if you get to that point.

65-66 k's shared the same radiator as their A and C code brothers and sisters, don't think it changed in 67...

Or on fleebay NOS for around $100. $12 also is expensive for a ding dong washer, these aren't airplanes we are restoring here... lol

If thats the engine assembly date and not the car's scheduled build date then I don't see how that could be the correct original intake, but then again this is Ford we are talking about...

-
What is the engine assembly date stamped on the pad right above the fuel pump?
-
I believe 64-1/2's had the road draft tube, 65-67 had a PCV.

Quote from CharlesTurner
If you have a 5A base that was originally painted blue, it was probably a service replacement part. Might have come in a cobra dress-up kit.
Why wouldn't a 5A base be painted blue originally if they made a ton of them? Anyone ever see a base dated earler than 6A (which could be too late for my Jan 12 kar). Anyone with a nov, dec, jan 66 kar have a 5A base? If not what date code?

Not really Charles, if you had a 5M or 6A I would be interested in a trade. Would could talk about an outright sale or trade for something else...
Did they even make a 5M base? The only date code I've ever seen for '65 was 5A, like they made a ton of them or something. Seen several dates for '66 and '67 though.
I think you are right. The 5A base I have was the original on my kar when I bought it in 79. I thought it might have been because the original air cleaner had been shoved into the hood when one of the previous owners broke the motor mounts (dent in the hood with a hood scoop bolted over it) however it had original 66 blue paint on it. I should probably save it and put it under the repro lid...
What dates have you seen for 66?

Are the LATE '65 and '66s BLUE??
I don't think they changed to blue until the 66 model year.
