Ron, my window sticker is inconlusive on this subject. As many of you might remember, my GT was special ordered from Dearborn in what we believe was anniversary gold, and when it rolled down the line in June/July, it may have gotten treatment special in other ways. I sat this because the Window sticker has the following;

base 289

289 4V HPWITH GT 3 MO OR 4000 MI POW TRN WARRANTY

GT EQUIPMENT

CRUISE O MATIC

FW SEAT WITH CNTR ARM REST

BLACK TOP

RADIO AM

DELUXE SEAT BELTS FRT & RR

TINTED GLASS

VISIBILITY GROUP

HEAVT DUTY BATTERY

STYLEDSTEEL WHEELS

RALLY-PAC

PTO 35-0183

SPECIAL PAINT

and so how it got the wheel is unclear. Maybe the dealer? or on the assembly line, as part of its special treatment.

Sorry I'm not more help.

Was that a fastback? I don't recall.

Did anyone see the TV show " Twisted " tuesday or wednesday? The heroine drove a black 65-66 black fastback with Shelby hood and sounds of a rightious small bock. She caught rubber and the Kar was driven agressively. Sweet to see a black fastback on a NEW show!!!

I will take some pics, but am tied up for a week or so.

I have a set of Mexican caps, or are you insistent on originals? What pistons do you need, standard or .020, or .030 over?

Have you installed the roll bar and if so, what did you use, and what does it look like? I might consider it for my Modified T code.

well, do you have the hipo book? If not, you are in luck, as the new edition, the 4th, is just hitting the news stands, so to speak. It is, or should be, your definitive guide, and when puzzled, just look harder at your car. I remember when my 66K F/B came off the transporter, oh my, ENJOY!!!

so how far away are we? give us a goal, so we have something to shoot for!!

that ' Bev Smith ' badge is from West Palm Beach, and a salty area it is, too. Wonder who made that?

" she may not look like much but she's got it where it counts ", Haan Solo, referring to the Millenium Falcon.

We are getting anxious, hope to see this fresh edition in a week or so, yes?

Now that's the kind of transaction that is the high water mark of this site! The part will go to the end user, and NOT to one who is building a pile to be resold. Bravo.

Hank, I got my covers, thanks for the help.

how many have been ' commited ', and how many do we need.? I'd like a estimate of where we must go to get them. Marv?

I'd take 4 if they are priced decently, can we get them below the $20/ea., ?

I thought all FE's were big blocks, where did I go wrong?

Have purchased a set of tri-y's, they're nickel plated, it says here. will have them on the dyno to see how they fit/perform. The nickel will get that blue coloring, I think, after run some. Comments?
