There has been a few of you interested in this wheel, but I have no confirmed takers. I'll be posting this on E-bay this weekend along with my NOS hi-po brake kit and other NOS parts I have listed in the general section. I'm giving you first shot at this here if anyone still has interest.
Matt
That's cool. I'd like to know if Charles has seen this on any cars. Thanks for sharing!
Matt
Just send 2 photos from my work e-mail. Let me know if you do not get that.

I've got a spare rear hi-po brake hose kit in Fomoco box for 65-66. Part #C5ZZ-2282-F. I will let go for $850 plus ship. The kit comes with the rubber differential hose and two steel lines, and attaching hardware. Rather tough part, but I discovered I have two kits. I have photos I can send upon request.

I would be interested to get Fred's oppinion on these rebuilt units as he is a leader in quality and performace with his runs. I do notice the spring here should be red. Can't believe the bid is up this high on this unit with 8 days to go. Fred sold one of his rebuilt units a few weeks ago and nearly hit $2k. Fred's units are built to run today's fuel wich is a huge plus for many looking for original pumps for their drivers-
Matt
Congrats on the sale of the fuel pump Fred! Although, I was amazed at what it went for, you do a superb job at these. It's obvious that others highly value the work done on them.

When looking for parts on the engine, don't we look at the date of the block and consider when the engine was likely assembled with it's components rather than the date on the door tag? I believe there has been some prior discussions around this. Charles has also commented that the date on the door tag was a projected date and could be off plus or minus 2 weeks. The door tag date on my car is July, but my engine has a Feb date. It is the original VIN stamped block to the car. I would suspect that the engine was assembled a short period after the block date so I've understood looking for dates on engine related parts around the block, rather than the door tag. I would also like to get Charles take as well.
Oh ya, I should do that. 6.95 X 14. Standard size for early Mustangs.
I am selling a set of whitewall Goodyear Power cusions. There are 4 tires: 3 are NOS and 1 about 65% tread left. The nubs and mold seam on top of the treads are barely visible on the 3 NOS but 100% of tread is there. Likely these 3 tires were used to roll a car around a shop. The 1 used tire has slightly more wear on the outside tread than the rest of the tire, but in good enough shape to show. $1,200 firm for the set. I bought these at $500 per tire. I can take pics and send on request.
I've got an NOS '66 4100 carb that I've compared to the one that sold on E-bay yesterday. A few similar details on NOS carbs: There are red marks (like nail polish)accross both jets and also a red mark about an inch long in the crease rising to the air cleaner. There are also some crayon marks on the sides. The one on Ebay showed on black vertical line, mine is drawn in red and mine also has a red "P" drawn on the opposite side...also in thin crayon. I could poossbily take some photos if there is any interest.
I am doing a T-Bred restoration and could use these particular fenders and hood off the car. They are not correctly dated for this car as they are. Would anyone with interest in this car be willing to purchase the car with me at a reduced price minus the hood and fenders? I do know where two MINT feders can be bought for $350 a piece and a pair of Ford NOS fenders for $500 each.
I believe the exhaust manifolds should also be hit with blue overspray like the carb spacer if you want originality. Charles will be able to help clarify any details. I like the color of the Kar.
Thanks Charles-
I'm hunitng for either a MINT near perfect or NOS red primed driver fender and/or hood dated roughly March-late June '66. The car has a hood and driver fender dated a month after the production date, so I'm attempting to put the right dates back on it. Probably in a fender bender shortly after the car drove off the lot. I'd like to hear from you if you may have something that might work.
Matt
Mark,
I just sent you a PM
Matt
I'm hunitng for an original '66 K engine tag from the Cleavelend plant. Does anyone have one to spare? I'd be willing to buy a manifold to get the tag, if you can't part with the two.

Coons will find themselves in the dangdest spots!!! I've got one living in my chimney of a rental I have now. I'm inbetween tenants and don't want the new tennants to feel they are sharing the home with company so I am also contemplating how to fix the situation. I go on the roof and can shine a flashlight down the chimney and can often see it looking up at me 20 feet down. I've been sucessful at shooting 4, trapping 2, but have also been outwit by 2. I guess if your keeping score, I'm 6...Coons 2. They are creative, smart, and eventful things that will not go away easily. If you trap them, use a can of tuna or chicken. It may take you several days to catch one and you may go through a few cans before you lure one in. They will find ways to take the bait without being trapped. Nights are your best opportunities to shoot/trap as they are nocturnal. Trapping it preserves nature, shooting it gets to the point. Best of luck-
Matt
