1969-1970 Shelby GT350/500 / Alternator harness
March 15, 2026, 10:27:50 AM
My original harness on left (not any good) has a single ground to back of alternator case. New harness I purchased from Dead Nuts, has a 2nd ground to engine block. I dont if the original harness was changed in the past, I just want to make sure the new harness is correct.

went to Home depot and got flat stock and just started bending and shaping by hand. The angles were the most difficult, I do not have any type of metal bending or shaping machines.

Have what appears to be a replacement tank for 69 GT 500 has a date that appears to be 1-20-83 armco stamp. Number on top of tank C9ZZ-9002-A. Were there 2 different manufacturers of tanks, I thought they had the USS trademark stamp?

Just an FYI, I sent on Monday the 16th and was returned on Monday the 23rd. I had the harness marked where to start and where to end. They will also ask if there is any wiring (sailed panel light) that needs to exit from the harness at any point and to mark the exit spot. Thanks to Ed for getting me in touch with them.

This is what I am up against. When I purchased this in 91 you can see PO painted car red. When I had it repainted the inside of the decklid texture was sanded smooth and so were the inner side of the end caps. Anyone ever find a way to recreate the texture for
1) inner flat surface of the decklid
2) texture/grain on the end caps

Was the texture from the taillight panel replicated on the end caps as well or were the just painted semi gloss black to match? June 69 build

1969-1970 Shelby GT350/500 / Upper shock mount
January 25, 2026, 11:26:57 AM
I have seen 2 69 Gt 500's this weekend and have a question in regards to markings on the upper shock mount (see attached) there is a blue dot on the outer side of the mount, is that correct for big suspension vehicle?
