66gtk · NOS hatchet weight 66gtk March 5, 2008 at 12:13 PM

I don't know yet until I get them... Somebody is making nice reproductions and selling them on this site for $100 each so I imagine it will be in that vicinity for a new NOS one.

I might be able to get 2 or more NOS originals. Does anybody need one?

It is a very nice car, but it will be a while before these cars hit 3 figures. Personally, I don't want to see that happen for a very long while.

Stunning car!

66gtk · Fastback K on ebay 66gtk February 13, 2008 at 7:15 AM

I haven't looked at the link yet, but the title, "Frame-off Restoration"?? Hmmmm. I didn't know Mustangs had a frame. I'm surprised it doesn't have a Posi rearend and Super Sport wheels.

Better get the VIN for this car posted.

66gtk · tri-y headers- anybody know... 66gtk January 31, 2008 at 8:28 AM

Quote from dunc289

Stan Johnson makes tri-y's, I think in both standard and large tube, and they are ceramic coated, and I understand they fit very well. He is in PUyallup, washington, very near me, and I will try to get his address, etc. He sells a ton of headers to others who market them as their own!! I think they are quite reasonable.

Interesting!!

66gtk · Exhaust Manifold finish?? 66gtk January 31, 2008 at 8:22 AM

I had mine blasted, then ceramic coated, THEN powder coated with correct cast iron gray. Turned out great!

Looks very nice! Didn't the early 'verts have an additional tubular firewall to shocktower brace like my '66 has?

66gtk · K- Kode Values 66gtk January 24, 2008 at 6:00 AM

I actually got a notice from Hagerty last year stating that they felt my car was "under-insured" and even provided me with a recommendation for value. They were pretty darn close, I think.

Quote from boss1

NADA is a bunch of garbage. Here is a market value for you.

K code Fastback...Number 2 condition. Unless it is a concours trailered car with pedigree...I would never call it a number 1.

45-50K

Deduct 20% for Non-GT
Deduct 10% for auto

Not sure what color your car is...

Market value $35-40K

I'd have to agree with this from a "reality" perspective. However, it sure seems hard to locate K code fastbacks below $40K.

What "advice" are you looking for? Insurance? Are you selling? Are you gifting?

66gtk · Best link of the week!! 66gtk January 19, 2008 at 11:56 AM

Only 1 K code for the entire week?

Notice the red GT350H sold for only $100K...wow, that's soft compared to last 2 years of early Shelby sales.

almost as good as being at BJ...

High price?? I think the seller could have done better without BJ.

66gtk · Ford Owns Pictures of Your Mustang? 66gtk January 16, 2008 at 11:43 AM

They need to define, "Ford Trademarks". That's the issue here. If I take a picture of my Mustang and the running horse is in the grill, that's a Ford Trademark, so I can't publish/sell the photo.

That's like saying, "You can break any laws you want as long as they aren't illegal." Huh???

66gtk · prep and painting bottom of car 66gtk January 15, 2008 at 10:31 AM

Quote from round2K

Based on my own experience I would recommend that you concentrate on keeping the undercarriage color as it originally was. Body color and undercarriage color are expensive and difficult to do over later. Bolt on parts are easy to change, but if you decide you decide to sell or show the car with the wrong body or undercarriage colors you can lose out either way if it is not authentic looking.

Ditto!
