Well done, Marv & Hank. This site puts a lot of "urban myths" about K's straight. Keep it up, guys. Phil.

OziPhil · My 65K code OziPhil March 27, 2008 at 1:30 AM

Looking good, Steve. My Rangoon 65 f/b is at a similar stage to yours, so I'm itching to get it finished. Good to see Australia is becoming a haven for nice K's. Keep up the good work. Phil.

When replacing a fuel filler pipe, is sealant required in addition to the cork gasket that goes between body and filler flange? Any help much appreciated. Phil.

Thanks again for your help, guys. Your points are in the mail! Phil.

OziPhil · Auxillary hood catch. OziPhil December 13, 2007 at 2:38 AM

Is the handle-shaped catch on the underside of the hood supposed to be exterior body colour or was it fitted after the body was painted? Thanks. Phil.

OziPhil · Export brace and windsreen washer OziPhil December 13, 2007 at 1:57 AM

Two Questions : 1. When an export brace is installed(Factory or dealer), are the lugs for the standard one removed or did they just bolt it over the top? Have seen a car for sale with the second method and looked very dodgy. 2. Was a windshield washer setup a factory item or optional in 1965? Same car didn't have this either. Five points for each correct answer! Phil.

Quote from 66KGT

AMK is the way to go. Not all fasteners are 100% correct but the convenience of having everything packaged and labeled for the application is fantastic. Not cheap, but worth the money.

Thanks, Merlyn. Will go with that. Phil.

OziPhil · Nuts and bolts! OziPhil February 18, 2007 at 9:59 PM

Does anyone have any advice on the best fastener packages to use for a K restoration? Am thinking of going with the AMK brand. Are these any good as far as authenticity and quality? Any advice is much appreciated. Phil.

OziPhil · how do i confirm i have original k code? OziPhil November 28, 2006 at 6:48 PM

Welcome to another Aussie! First favour to do yourself is to buy the K Bible as it has heaps of info relating to your car. "The 289 High Performance Mustang" Ed. 4 will give you lots to go by. Good Luck. Phil.

OziPhil · 4th edition - frame rail plates OziPhil November 9, 2006 at 6:54 PM

My Nov '64 non-GT F/back also has no frame rail plates. Severe disappointment after the 'pinky test' a couple of years ago! It's nice to know others have these freak characteristics!! Phil.
