1966 Shelby GT350/GT350H / Re: Question on axle studs
Last post by Bob Gaines - Today at 05:36:07 PMQuote from: JWH on Today at 04:14:27 PMWould these axle studs be what was originally installed on a very early (Carryover) 1966 GT350? Notice the thicker shoulder of the stud near the axle face.How far do those studs protrude out from the surface of the hub? Maybe just the angle of the picture but they look significantly longer then typical. The picture makes me think of the longer studs we press into the axles and front disc hub on open track cars in conjunction with the longer lug nuts for more clamping power.

2006-up Shelby GT/GT-H / Re: It's time to replace the ...
Last post by FL SAAC - Today at 05:06:04 PMWe kept searching for our 2007 Shelby Hertz Cult Cars premium convertible cloth top.
As previously stated we looked at several cloth tops priced from $960 to 1,100 with a rear glass and defroster.
So I kept poking around "ye olde interweb" and low and behold I find a company that shows a top with the same specifications and guarantees.
100% performance testing
100% new premium components
Meet or exceed OEM specifications.
BUUUUUUUT it shows what looks to be the same $1,000 top for only $324.99
YUP only $324.99
But wait there is more !
Actually not more but less...10% less
They offer a discount code.
So who is this BRAND-X company that we have never heard of ?
I don't t know and I don't care.
BRAND-X
Looked at the reviews, plenty satisfied and those that are not satisfied they offer a 90 day return and refund.
WINNA WINNA CHIKUN DINA !
Looks like the prophet will be ordering one of the BRAND-X Tops.
The plot thickens and to be continued... the $292.49 TOP

SAAC Forum Discussion Area / 67 - 69 Autolite Look-Alike Sh...
Last post by tgilliam - Today at 12:32:00 PMSome of you may have been aware that Dan Patch (Kansas City) was a source for concours type look-alike Autolite shocks for our cars. Last year Dan suffered a stroke. He contacted me in November because I had an active order saying he would NO longer be producing the shocks due to his health.
Well, last week he called again stating he was going to carry on making the look-alike Autolite shocks. He has not fully recovered from his medical issues but is much better. What has changed is that his Son has agreed to get into the business with him and do the "heavy lifting" part of the work. From my previous experience the lead time is usually six + months but I always received a first class product.
He stated the lead time should be about the same as before and the product will be the same high quality as before. He ask that I post a note on the Forum that he is back in business. The contact information is the same as before.
