Appeals / Longer seat belts for a 69 Shelby
August 29, 2021, 05:32:19 AM
  I was wondering if someone makes a longer shoulder harness for a 69 Shelby? Or a seat belt extender?  Seems like the V is always rubbing into the back of my neck and it's hard to reach the wiper and headlight switch while using the shoulder straps

Thanks Dan

Hi Everyone,
A friend sent me this photo. I have personally never recall seeing it before.  Is this a photo of a 68 prototype?  The gas cap looks different
Thanks,   Dan

Hello everyone,

1969-1970 Shelby GT350/500 / Cooling problems
September 29, 2020, 06:19:41 AM
On my 69GT350 I'm having cooling problems at idle and low speeds the temperature at a light or in traffic heats up to the point of almost overheating. My car has a/c  and a three row radiator in it.  Does anyone know is a clutch fan set up from a 68 GT350 will work on a 69 Gt350?

   Thank Dan

Im not sure if my Z bar is bent.   Does anyone know if someone makes a stronger Z bar or a way to reinforce one so it doesn't bend?  I have to almost push the pedal through the floor to get the clutch to engage so I can shift into gear. I used the procedure in the shop manual but my pedal always has to be pushed all the way to the floor to shift.  Is there a way to adjust the lower rod to make it disengage closer to the top of the pedal travel and still have enough free play?  Also I installed a Center force clutch and pressure plate and throw out bearing and cannot get the pedal to come all the way up without assistance. I had to put a heavier spring to the Z bar from the firewall in order to get the pedal to come full up.    Thanks in advance for any help you can give

Does anyone have a source that repairs or sells the parts for vacuum assembly that is installed under the dash for tilt away steering column on a 69 GT350.

Thanks.  Dan

Was an electric power antenna an option for 69/70 Shelby's?  If so how many actually came with them?

Thanks Dan

I was wondering what alignment specifications everyone is using for a 69 GT350?   The upper control arms have not been lowered and I have 235 60 15 BF Goodrich tires. My car is mostly street driven but I do take it on the track also.  My reason for asking is I have been told several times that the specs in the manual aren't good for radial tires or track use.  It seems that every place I look all have different spec's and at this point I'm just getting confused about what alignment specifications to use.   Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,   I was wondering if any one has a source that sells the Shelby wiring harness that goes from the engine compartment to the console gauges.  I have a bad wire going to my oil press gauge.  Also looking for the engine compartment wire harness.

Thank you for the help.   Dan

Years ago I bought a set of reproduction wheels for my 69 GT 350 from Branda Performance made by Specialty Wheels the chrome is now starting to rust and two of the rims are bent so I now have a vibration.   I'm looking to buy a new set of reproduction wheels and wanted to know who makes the best ones?   

Thanks

Has anyone converted their A/C to r134a? I was wondering how it cools? I have a factory A/C car. It currently has a York compressor that gone bad. With the price of R12 and it's getting hard to find in my area I m thinking of converting to R134.  Also I would like to know if anyone has installed a Sanden compressor? Do you like? How does it work?  My car is a driver and having A/C again would be great.  Thank you in advance
