Would the Engine ID tag in a early GT500 be painted or not ? Mine has paint on about half of it. Thank You Rick

Our 67 GT500 #185 has trim code 6A on the Marti report. The DSO is 2501 and is the only car on that DSO. And as far as I know still has original seats. We have owned it for 40 plus years. Rick

Do the engine frame mount bolts on a 1967 GT 500 go in from the front and nut on the backside or vice versa? Thank You

Beautiful car. Congratulations. What size are the tires ? Thank You Rick

Sorry, 4 speed. Thank You Rick

I am getting close to installing the 428 back into #185. My question is about the routing of the speedometer cable around the steering shaft, Clutch equalizer or Zbar any help or picture would be appreciated. Also is the Clutch equalizer or Zbar installed before the engine or after ? Thank You Rick

That is a possibility but the First name is Caryl and the third or last name is Fiod. The names are hand engraved. Thank you for your response.

Yes, Car was delivered to Ball Ford in Miami, and lived in South Florida all its life.

My GT500 frame has three hole in the area that the Clutch Bellcrank bracket attach's. I assume that the front (most forward) two are for the bracket and what if anything attaches to the rear hole? Also the third hole (rear) is a hex with a drop in slug with 3/8th -16 thread. Have other Mustang had a similar hex slug ?The front two holes have something similar to a rivnut 3/8th-16 thread they appear to be factory. The middle hole's thread's were striped, my son came up with the idea that once we removed the original rivnut that we could tack weld a flanged 3/8th nut upside down. Should make a nice repair.

Here is the picture.

I found a brass tag about 1 1/4" X 1 1/2 " and a piece of bailing wire attached through a 1/4" hole drilled in it, that was in a baggie that had my fan shroud screws in it. On the metal tag were three hand written name's or one name Caryl Paul Fiod. Did employes at Shelby or Ford sometimes attach their name or did someone that repaired the radiator attach their name ? Any thoughts. Thank You Rick

I have a Bolt kit from AMK F-866 for the Clutch bellcrank (Zbar) Brackets for a GT500 big block. My question is there are 2 bolts with lock washers and 2 bolts with washer flanged bolts, which one's go on the frame side and which one's on the block side. Thank You Rick

I am looking for a drive shaft for my 67 GT500. I received a response from a Shasta Philipe, I ask for pictures. I got pictures from a drive shaft on listed on ebay Same picture as on ebay but for less money. I asked what state he was in ? never heard back from him. 

I am looking for a good used driveshaft for a 1967 GT 500 or S code for a 4 speed. Thank You Rick

I sent a PM.
