  • 65 K Vert

    Quote from Zed



    Hi, this has been on eBay Australia for awhile now, seller states cheapest K code on the planet.

    Not my Kar and I am not travelling interstate to look at it but I am putting it here for all to see.

    VIN is still there but no door tag but what can I say, $19800 AUD plus shipping back to the US this might be the car of your dreams(nightmare?)

    Thanks for putting this up for us to see.

  • Looking for a new Carpet

    Quote from Morsel


    TMI is pretty much the only one. One trick when installing is to lay it out in the sun on a very hot day for several hours, or heat it up another way to get it softened, and then you can get it to lay flat. I had the same result that gjz30075 had the first time I tried to install, and then someone else gave me that tip and I got it to lay very flat across the whole bottom of the floor pans and transmission tunnel.

    Good luck,

    Jason

    Excellent tip Jason. I had not heard of that one before.

  • Date code question

    Quote from HipoCV


    You might try to locate someone who has a close build date to you car if they have a '67 Hipo car and if they have the original engine components, you might get some date codes from them. If you have a Dearborn built car, they used a lot of older dated parts on those Mustangs with the other 2 plants getting more updated castings as they were newer production plants and more of their parts came directly from the supplier source.

    The engines, as far as I know, were assembled at Cleveland and not at the vehicle assembly plants. Am I wrong on this?

  • NOS C8ZF-J Hipo Carburetor

    Quote from C6ZZKGT


    Here is an Ebay auction for an NOS C8ZF-J Hipo carburetor by Ebay member "frea-9" with a Buy-It-Now of $2,995.00:

    Offered is a Autolite NOS factory carburetor for the Ford 271hp HiPo K code Mustang. Manual choke and in excellent original condition.

    Bought it at a swap meet years ago and never used for a dream project K code Mustang that never came to be. Rare then, rarer today.

    This carburetor is now considered to be a service replacement part. It was actually meant to be original equipment for the never built 68 Hipo 289 Mustang. This would have gone along with the other 68 Hipo 289 parts that Ford built of which all but one are now considered to be service replacement parts for earler Hipo 289 engines. Ford had made the harmonic balancer, heads, intake manifold, carburetor, Mexican block and fuel pump. The fuel pump is the only item that will not be a proper replacement for earlier Hipo 289 engines as it has a 3/8" rather than a 5/16" inlet nipple.

  • C4OF-AL Carburetor

    This carburetor is NOT the real deal at all. Here is the email that I sent the seller on 4/6/2019 and I have never received a response from the seller nor have they changed their description. Caveat Emptor!!

    I am just trying to help you out here. I am sure that you are NOT intentionally misrepresenting this carburetor. The problem is that someone in the past has made this one up as none of the pieces are what you believe them to be. First, the main body does not have the cast in stop for the choke fast idle cam. While we are on the choke fast idle cam, it is a reproduction made by Pony Carburetors a number of years ago. Therefore this carburetor was most likely converted by them as they did this as a regular service at the time. The main body casting should have a date code of 11-5-63 cast into the underside of it as that was when the majority of the Hipo castings were produced. The protrusion in front of the choke fast idle cam was originally for mounting the automatic choke and is shortened on the Hipo carburetor to clear the manual choke linkage. Being as they were originally drilled and tapped, Pony filled them in as yours is. The air horn would not have the extra brass tube coming out of the right hand side for the heat riser to an automatic choke and the hole would be cast shut. The rear booster is correct as it is a BA and generic. The main booster is incorrect as it would be an M. The C5OF-L tag actually is correct as Ford was changing the tag when they stopped using the road draft tubes on the engines.

    Please contact me if you need more information.

  • C4OF-AL Carburetor

    Here is an Ebay auction for a C4OF-AL Hipo carburetor by Ebay member "super-novass" with a Buy-It-Now of $1,950.00 or make offer:

    This is an original Autolite model 4100 4 barrel carburetor for K Code 289 HIPO engines. The driver's front mounting foot it stamped C4OF AL as shown. The tag reads: "FoMoCo C5OF-L B 4LA". The C4OF AL carb was used on 1964 1/2 Mustangs, Fairlane, and Comets with the 289/271HP HIPO engine and a 4 speed manual transmission. It was also used on early 1965(until 2/15/1965) Mustangs, Fairlanes, annd Comets with the 289/271HP HIPO engine and a 4 speed manual transmission. The early 1965 models has C4OF AL stamped on the base with the C5OF-L tag as you see on this carburetor. This carb was also used on 1965 Shelby Mustangs with the Paxton supercharger option. This is a very rare early 1965 K code carb!

    This carb is in very good condition as shown. The carb body is bare metal with no paints or coatings. There is no corrosion, breaks, or repairs. The gold cadmium plated parts all look very nice with a nice original luster. All manual choke components, which are only found on K code carbs, are intact and in good condition. All parts move freely. Both throttle shafts move smoothly and seem tight in the bores, not wollowed out. This carb came off a good running engine in a hot rod Ford truck. The truck was further upgraded and had fuel injection added so the carb was removed. I have no idea how this carb ended up on the truck unless a whole K code engine was installed in the truck or a shop simply had this carb on the shelf and installed it. I removed the top plate and the carb looks very clean inside. I also removed the boosters to reveal the stamped codes of "B A" and "D K" as shown. This carb deserves a home on a 289 K code engine. Don't miss this awesome carburetor.

    This is your chance to own the real deal Autolite 4100 K code specific carburetor you have been dreaming about at a GREAT PRICE. Don't miss out!
