Is'nt that just discusting but not suprising of the China made Scott Drake parts of late. Get out the rat tail file.

I have heard good things about those, they remove alot of the friction equiling less effort. The guy that makes them has a GT-CS and posted here a while back. Marty

It gos about mid way on the side of the left support. If you look at the picture of the retainer you can see that it would need to be on the side. As far as the routing is conserned every factory car I have had the vac lines were taped to the harness with friction tape. I am sure it would work...

Dalorzo it looks like your AC vac lines are routed wrong. They follow the main wiring harness in front of the dash support. There is a hole on the side of the left support that is where the screw gos that mounts the metal retainer that keeps the hose away from the wiper arms. Hope this helps. Marty

I have Halogens in our 68 fastback and have driven it thousands of miles all over the country and the lights have never gone out once. I would put in a new heavy duty switch and I bet you will be fine. Unless there is some resistance wiring issue. Marty

My brain was not engaged. I was thinking of standard Mustangs not GT-CS. No GT-CS had the trunk light, but the Shelbys did. As CougarCJ said you will need to run a ground wire as well. The hole is in the deck lid for it. Marty

I agree with Neil, eliminate one thing at a time starting with the cheep and easy ones. Marty

My dads GT-CS was sold out of the 72 DSO San Jose Ca. and it has the heater delete as well. It will be getting a heater for Nebraska! Marty

Dalorzo, Did you know in your last picture, the trunk light should be mounted in the trunk deck lid?

The Ford dark corporate blue is correct. Jeff also is right there were slight variations. One thing that is mis leading in photos is the flash tends to wash out the color and some folk just get the wrong color. It is hard to tell in pictures. Marty

Sounds like a bad turn signal switch. A very common problem with our cars. Marty

One other explanation is on older wire that has been striped gets corrosion on it and even with flux is very hard to flow the solder. Try flowing the solder on each wire seprately then place them together and flow the solder. Best of luck Marty

Rob, I love the crisp detail thats somthing I look for on the concours cars I judge. If it is half as fast as it looks Watch Out. This is Vals grocery getter? Brings new meaning to fast food! Marty

Cut the plastic knob and it ill come apart easily. NPD has new one that are inexpensive and easy to install. Marty

Neil sounds like a plan. We have so much to pack for the tally room and to show a car. Please remind me a week or so before. Marty

Neil, I have a original paint chip chart. If we get together some time I could bring it. Marty

Many of us do not know how good we have it. Complaning about 3.35 a gallon gas. Thanks for the reminder. Marty

I use a 4 inch PVC tube with a cap. It taked 1.75 gallons. It lasts a long time so you can do several projects before it is shot. It cost $22.00 per gallon here. Marty

Yes you are correct the Shelby did use the clutch fan. Marty
