Thanks Bill, Yes this is gonna be very helpful.
I'll see you out in Carlisle Friday.
Thanks again !

Im about to reinstall my console and in making 110 % sure I had the amp gauge wired correctly now I can't remember/find where the black w/green trace wire coming off of the back of the oil pressure gauge connects to in the cars wiring harness.
 Anybody remember off the top of their head ??
Thanks for any possible suggestions.

OK Thanks Rodney !

Was looking to see if anyone could tell me what shade of blue the shocks on an automatic 68 KR  would be?
Rattle can or paint code mix ?

Thanks,  Tom

OK got it. Thanks guys !

  Would anyone have a picture of the firewall showing the the sealer/under coating that was sprayed all around the heater hose area along with the brake booster area. I'm wondering if everything that was attached to the firewall was in place when the spraying was done. Also what is a good product to use replicate this ?
Thanks Tom

OK mystery solved ! Turns out the holes were accidently filled, the reasoning behind it was they were only on the one side so he figured they weren't original.

OK good clue, I'll have to look a lot closer to see if my body guy filled them by mistake which is what i'm starting to think.
Thanks Tim,

    OK Thanks for the pic, here is what's confusing me, my car does not have the guard and there are no holes in    the floor where a guard would have been bolted to. This is an early KR conv.(bucked 4/24/68) with an automatic.
Could it have possibly had the fuel line that would have been installed on a 4spd (staggard shock) car instead ?
Or possibly the guard was just never installed ?

Hey Guys,
 So I'm about to install my new fuel line from the tank forward and I can't seem to remember how my old line was attached to the body from the tank to the front torque box area.
Anyone have some pics to help me remember ? Its an automatic 500KR conv.

Thanks,  Tom

OK Bob thanks for the tip ! Any Idea what the aprox dimensions of those tags were ?
Thanks Tom

Thanks Roy but I just picked one up from one of the local Ford guys around here this morning.
I would however be interested in the tag you have there.
Let me know,
Thanks

OK Thanks, Bob   

Wow that was fast!  Thanks Pete. So I'm looking for the Midland Ross type then correct ?

I was wondering if the booster currently in my KR is the original one before I send it out for rebuilding.
 It's car 2295, built May 1st.
Reason I ask is because it is a Bendix and from what I can gather it seems that the Midland Ross was the most commonly used around this time. The car does have most all of its original parts throughout but I'm not sure about the booster.
  Did Bendix use any type of date code? There appears to be a number 1189 ( or maybe 1139) stamped in a vertical direction near the fitting.
