Rohan_old · VHT paint Rohan_old January 14, 2010 at 2:19 PM

Hey Zed,

I wasnt aware that VHT made a paint which is the correct engine paint. The ones I have seen are either too light or too dark. Go to a paint place who mixes the pressure pack and ask for Ford Corporate Blue in enamel.

The New Ford Blue may be right? Havent seen that one.

Cheers

Hi Everyone,

I was speaking to an owner over here In Australia of a 64.5 k code. Car was ground up restored in 2002 to MCA concours specs. Havent seen it in person but the pics are georgous.

The Kar has a close ratio gearbox but not the correct type for a 64.5 K. The owner can get a correct box (HEH-S) but the cost shipped over here + price will be around $3200 aud.

He's wanting opinions - Being such a rare car + box, is it worth the $$$ for future resale?

Rohan_old · its back Rohan_old July 17, 2009 at 3:29 PM

"tarted up" could be kind words I think. Door jams, RH inner fender where the buck tag is looks like it has been poorly patched up. Someone has gone mad with the sliver paint in the engine bay! Including the fuel pump!

Rohan_old · What is wrong in this picture Rohan_old July 6, 2009 at 5:35 AM

Yes !! No wonder the battery wasnt charging. Has been this way since the kar was restored. All good now.

Hi Everyone,

Last week I posted a question around why the battery in my 67 K was not being charged after checking the alternator + regulator.

For the detail people - What can you find wrong in this pic?

Cheers

Rohan_old · 65/66 GT K Rohan_old June 21, 2009 at 3:39 PM

Hi Tony,

I looked for a 67 K fastback for nearly 2 years. I wanted one with deluxe trim and with colour, preferably matching numbers or at least correct K code driveline.

Looked and waited, looked and waited. The one that I ended up with has standard trim, acapulco blue. So I settled on that. Keep looking something may pop up.

Cheers

Thanks. Will track back.

Currently have issues with the Alternator not charging. Have had the alternator checked by a sparky - all good, I changed the regulator (AMK version) just in case it was playing up (looked like it had moisture inside), but still not charging.

I read somewhere to make sure that those 2 white wires were on the right post as that could be the problem?

Any other ideas?

Cheers

Hi Everyone,

I have 2 white wires on the back of my 67's alternator. 1 is attached to the FLD post, the other is attached to the post at the very bottom (on its own)

Question is - how can I tell that the correct white wire is attached to the correct post?

Thanks

Hi Everyone,

What does the shoulder harness option look like? Is that a sash type addition to the standard lap belt?

Rohan_old · 3 X 2 setup Rohan_old February 24, 2009 at 4:32 AM

Hi Everyone,

Does anyone have tuning instructions for a factory 3 X 2 setup?

Thanks

Rohan_old · Safe in Australia Rohan_old February 11, 2009 at 3:12 PM

Hi Bo,

The pictures and footage are mindblowing. Over 1100 homes gone, 190 dead + another 80 still missing. It's hard to imagine a fire storm coming at you at 50-60 mph! Hope they find the culprits. Victoria had a week of 100+ degrees temps, then some D H lights a fire - mass murder.

Plenty of sad stories like this

Jeff, the information you have just amazes me!

Rohan_old · 3 X 2 or Paxton ? Rohan_old January 12, 2009 at 2:36 PM

The paxton prices I got from Craig Conley a few months ago. I was going from memory. The 3 X 2 are straight from pony themselves.

I can get an original Ford 3 X 2 setup that has been completely rebuilt for the price of the setup from pony.

regards

Rohan

Rohan_old · 3 X 2 or Paxton ? Rohan_old January 9, 2009 at 3:26 PM

Hi Everyone,

If you were to do a period modification to your K, what'd be your preference when taking into consideration value for money, performance gains, ease of maintenance.

1. repo 3 X 2 setup from Pony Carbs - $1900

2. Correct style Paxton supercharger - $3200

Just wanting some opinions, thanks

Rohan_old · Rarest of Mustangs Rohan_old January 2, 2009 at 3:50 PM

If you're looking at total numbers produced rather than individual years, the BOSS 429 would be the rarest, followed by BOSS 302, then Shelby GT350. All are very different cars though. BOSS cars, Shelbys are individual models rather than engine code options. R codes and K codes are more comparable. Over 3 years there were approx 18,000 R codes against approx 13,000 K codes.

I think the best way to look at it is comparing K codes to other Mustang engine options of the particular year produced.

67 K codes are one of the rarest of all! - but I'm biased.
