Yes, I've driven the car. I tightened the lower control arm after it was on the floor. I removed the power steering parts but add air conditioning. I'll measure the corners (underside of wheel arches) again and post them later today. I wonder if the upper control arms are too tight and won't...

I rebuilt my front suspension, changing everything but the springs, and it now rides 2" too high I can't figure out what happened. The only thing I can think of that I changed was the taller end link spacers.

Here is a photo of end links that are all suposedly for a '68 Mustang. Will the height of the spacer affect ride height?

Yes, 14 x 6 was the only size. They seem to run around $200 per set for bare wheels. I have a set with GT caps and rings I'll sell for $200 plus shipping if you're interested. Shipping from Texas to Ontario may be outrageous, though.

I'm going to order some one-of-one reports from Marti so if you want one (no charge to you) for your car please send me the VIN, the transmission code, and the paint code. If we don't have data for that particular Engine/Transmission/Color combination I'll order the report and send it to...

This is such a rare car that trying to place a retail value on it is really tough. It's basically worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. I wouldn't pay $40,000 for it but if I really wanted a restored yellow '66 HCS GT $30K would tempt me.

The sticker doesn't list the 4-speed, or was that part of the GT package in '66?

I was looking for tire/wheel ideas for my aqua C-code so I pulled Hook's book off the shelf and flipped through it. I had forgotten how amazing of a book it is and the incredible job Cory did putting it together.

One of the thing that I find amusing is the Ghia emblem from a Mustang II. Did the owner try to 'upgrade' his Mustang to a Mustang II?

Wow, that looks great!

It took a lot of work, too. All the craftsmanship looks great.

Not too sure about this one. http://www.mecum.com/auctions/lot_detail.cfm?LOT_ID=SC0512-124896&entryRow=21&lottype=&startRow=1

What is the proper color for the top grille bolts? Are either of the ones shown in these photos correct? Are these the correct bolts? Thanks

It depends on which 4100 you use but the 1.08" is generally called 480cfm. Here is a site about a guy who calculated the actual CFMs of various 4100s. http://www.fordfe.info/Autolite4100Test.htm Here is a typical site that calculates the required carb size for various engines and driving...

Here is a drawing of how the square spacers are supposed to work. The only catch is that the rubber grommets may push against the spacers so you may need to enlarge the holes in the spacers or trim down the rubber grommets.

I have one that I'll send to you. Do you want just the gauge or the large face plate, too?

J-Code 4-speed, Lime Gold

I just installed a tach in my car so I probably have the amp gauge. I'll take a look tonight.
