Looking for a nice original pair of working Tung-sol headlights for a '66.  The type with t/s on the bottom and with or without FoMoCo etching in the middle.

Prefer without rock chips or damage.  The closer to NOS the better.

I have a later replacement pair with narrow flutes if interested in partial trade?

West Baden Springs Hotel is a nice alternative, just down the road from the French Lick Resort.

On the master cylinder rebuild, keep in mind that some of the rebuild kits have an internal piston with a deeper cavity for the push-rod than original.  What this means is the pedal will not align up close to the clutch pedal.  Make the rebuilder aware of this issue.  Otherwise, an adjustable push-rod will have to be used or modify an original rod to make it a bit longer.

Judging sheets have been e-mailed out.  Anyone that did not receive them, please let me know.  The pdf file sizes are a bit large, so check spam folders.

A big thanks to the owners and judges, some great cars this year!

There's still time to enter SAAC-51 concours!  So far we have every year represented except for '66.

While it will likely be hot in Atlanta, SAAC has rented a 100x20 tent with 40' of that for concours.  We will be able to judge cars under the tent and SAAC is selling the other 6 spots.

Great opportunity to have your car judged by some of the most knowledgeable Shelby experts in the world!

Yeah, eBay does some weird stuff like that now... if I was searching for '1965 Ford mustang door latch', I would also have to do something like '-(chevrolet, buick, dodge)' and that would cut it down quite a bit.

In ebay advanced search, can exclude a seller ID.  Not useful for casual searches, but any saved searches, works well.

The shock caps should have fine threads for 65-66.

'66 Mustangs with the BW 4sp would normally have a tag, HEK-AD if I remember right.

Wow, thanks for the recommendations, much appreciated!

I have some original leaf '66 springs that need a slight tweak on the arching.  Anyone know a place on the US east coast that still does this kind of work?


Thanks
