Jeff you must be thinking of denny aldridge motorsports a boss 429 guy out of portland. I always thought steve strange was always from spokane wa. I stopped at his place back in 92 on the way to a saac portland meet on one of my old ford dealership trips as it was the longest trip i was ever on gone for a month drove 10.000 miles thru 16 states. Steves son also sells parts out of LV.

I thought they were going to call the div 2. premiere award a different name so as to not be the same as div 1 premiere name that is much harder award to get having to use all original and nos parts. Maybe call it primiere 2 award.

Parts For Sale / Re: 3 NOS FE windage trays
October 21, 2026, 04:18:21 PM
The 2 side panrail  notches were for the 70  starter j straps routing away from exhaust manifold heat unlike 68-69 when starter cables routed by motot mounts. The windage tray cutouts started smaller then bigger as a running change probly due to oil flow and more dipstick clearance or oil flow to oil adapter etc not sure as the cutout is in the front lh side area.

There are 3 versions of c9zz windage trays early 69 late 69 and 70 with the 2 side cutouts but its more a running change same as the later fe oil pan baffle. The cutout got bigger by the oil pan pickup tube area.

Looks like a full house 20 cars to judge 4 -65 gt350 6 - boss 429s 2-boss 302 - 1 boss 351 - 1 66 gt350  3 67 gt500s 2 -70 gt500 69 mach1 cj and NO 68 shelbys as in the past 68 shelbys were the biggest class so what happened to the 68 shelby guys?

Your pink headlight bucket is more correct with the slotted hole from what i remember as well as the upper fender slotted hole both needed for adjustments.

rear just a thin plastic washer and the big chrome was used on door panel crank if car has dual speakers stero.

Concours Talk / Re: 69-70 Front Bumper "filler" shields
October 07, 2026, 11:26:16 PM
Back 20 years ago or so i sent originals to scott h  ( muscle car research ) over on the cj forum and he made them correctly  as its the same as the rear tag light shield behind bumper and its got cloth strands mixed in rubber i think masticated type or something like that so call him as they were made off my originals so the pattern is correct and use 6 pan head screws.
