True there are many areas that would be considered a cesspool... but most of the state is a golden nugget compared to other places. To keep people out the prices are kept exponentially high. A starter home begins around 750k in SO CAL, in much of the country it is around 250k for fresh air, fresh water, 1/2 acre,2 car garage, 2.50 gallon of gas. BUT those states believe everyone is in the 7.50 hr. salary range, with little opportunity for advancement. It has always been a tradeoff..... Great opportunities- OR a slow pace with little room to advance and just enjoy watching your fields grow.

Huntsville, AL is number 3 in the US for Technology jobs...

$2.37 a gallon right now in Huntsville, AL.

Go to all that trouble and the put Firestone tires on it???

I had not heard of "Engineering numbers" appearing on the back side of the trunk/fender MUSTANG letters.  After reading the last two posts, I had to remove the same letter "N" from my original late 66 SJ Hi-po GT Conv to have a look.  It does have 4 small numbers that appear to be 5640 as said in the previous posts. (Photo attached). I have revised my ad and removed "Assembly line" from the description. 

As an additional resource, I've posted a photo of a set of the same letter set Ford offered in dark blue and white boxes in the late 70's or early 80's era (not for sale).  We see there are no engineering numbers but are genuine Ford parts. Just wanted to display the follow up for any potential buyers to prove my parts listed are genuine Ford parts.  Good luck finding an earlier set.

If you look closer on the left vertical portion of the "N" that you pictured you can make out the first part of the Ford part number which is "C5ZB" I believe.

Here is the back of an original "N" - you can make out the part number on the back...

Bump.

Sold.

Kelsey does have a Goodyear bias ply sidewall look radial. For a '66 with 14 inch wheels, could just black out "Polyglass" and tire size, as an option.

FR70 would be pretty tall wouldn't they? Possible front fender rubbing, especially if the Shelby drop has been done.

just curious why one bracket looks different than the other. Is that how they came from the factory?

Bump

FYI, you can reply to your own post and add more pics.

Please check your PM...

Are those hipo heads? Are they listed in the spreadsheet?

Yes, I still have it.
