Are you installing this on a '66?

Did you verify if they were DOT tires? Any markings on the back?

Were they safety 800XP or w/out 'XP'?

As far as I know, 13" red line tires were never an RPO item for Mustangs.

It varies from car to car. Most original cars I have seen don't have very much showing though. Remember this was strip caulk.

I agree with you on that Charles. I was just trying to address it as being part of the GT package as that is more widely recognized.

Not a problem, just adding a clarification.

Quote from C6ZZKGT

Dave, The Hipo steering box is the same number as a GT without power steering as they are both HCC-AX.

-Fred-

It was an RPO for any V8 ordered with the handling package.

Quote from gtk66

When I bought my 6T09K it also had the snubber bolted to the body,but the 9" was long gone,did all 9" rearends have the snubbers?Thanks in advance.

The "intended" configuration would be the square corner bumper plate welded into the unibody with no bumper stop bolted to it and a rubber bumper attached to the rear assembly.

Seeing as K codes were such low production, it stands to reason that an assembly line worker may not have realized that the rubber bumper should not have been bolted to the unibody. I'm guessing that San Jose produced the bulk of '66 K codes since they were doing all the Shelby cars. Would be interesting to know what the production percentages were per assembly plant.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery to Marv. We have a lot of talented members on hpmx that would probably be more than happy to help with the data entry if needed.

Looks like a decent car from the pics. Did anyone notice the rear snubber plate has the rubber stopped bolted to it? There was a previous discussion about this on hpmx.

Quote from cobraboy

I contacted a couple pf DMV'S regarding my car, they would not release any info on previous owners because off US data protection and privacy laws.

Some states allow the release of the data, but only to be used as "research" or for education. Usually this means you sign a form to this effect, which also states that you do not plan to contact any of the individuals.

Other than the special Indy 500 Pace car K-codes...

Those cars were built on the assembly line as F code 260 convertibles.

Quote from Mu5tanggt

This is a '66 Metuchen Kar ordered new with a rally pac. Standard red int. it came with a black Rally Pac.

Thanks for sharing. Another exception to the norm... seems par for the course these days!

Thanks for weighing in on this. Unfortunately, history has proven that new car brochures are not always a good reference to use for answering production detail questions. The brochures would typically be designed and printed months before actual production may have begun. Most of the information would be relatively accurate, but there are always a few things here and there that can be spotted as wrong.

That little blue '65 GT convertible I restored had an original blue rally-pac in it when I bought it. When I took it apart for restoration, the tach was ink-stamped May of 1965 and there was blue paint on the inside. Just one example from Dearborn.

Quote from 66KGT

Just my thoughts but I would think a factory Rally-Pac would be color keyed to the interior, a dealer or owner added would be black.

That is the norm, but when the low profile rally-pac became available, not sure all colors were also available. Have heard a lot of owner claims that their low profile came black. But, like you say, could have been a dealer-install thing.

Are you looking for a 6A19 flywheel or wanting to know what it decodes to? (Jan 19, 1966)

Quote from 65Rangoon

I believe we rabid Mustangers are the ones who coined the 64 1/2 identifier for those early cars that had generators. I expect from Fords point of view, going to an alternator (and other mechanical improvements) was simply a running engineering change.

I've heard that the 64 1/2 term got started by Ford Parts Managers once they realized just about everything was different between a generator and alternator car.

The Ford data for 65-66 was disposed of a long time ago. You can extrapolate the other data figures and come up with what you think might be a guess, but that's all it would be. Suffice to say there weren't that many K codes.

Quote from jeller68

So of the 7273 K Cars produced in 1965. There is no documentation on how many fastbacks ?

Anywhere ?

No reliable figures known at this point, sorry.

The only thing I am aware of that would be dated in an original rally-pac would be a date stamp on the back of the tach. To see this, you'll have to disassemble the rally-pac. Of course, the tach could have been replaced.

If the date is consistent with the car, then it might be a good indicator that the rally-pac is the original and then you can observe what the original color was.
