Here is the transmission. http://californiaspecial.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7282 The rear end has a metal tag attached to one of the pumpkin bolts but I don't think it has any portion of the VIN on it.

Edelbrock now has high zinc content oil. http://store.edelbrock.com/lubricants.aspx

Brandon, What does your mechanic hope to see by removing the valve covers?

If I remember correctly the Coopers are made in the USA, too.

Go to Google and enter something like, "1968 Mustang Kickdown Cable" then click on <images>. That should give you a bunch of photos of what you're looking for. If the above description doesn't return the photos you need try tweaking it a little...

Brandon, The man knows of which he speaks. Small block Fords are severely choked by their heads so your best bang for the buck would be aftermarket heads. Porting the existing heads will help considerably but all the porting in the world won't match new aluminum heads. Headers would also...

Yeah, sandpaper and water-softened skin makes for a bad combination. I forgot to tape my fingers and sanded off my finger friction ridges again!

Pick a week and I'll be there!

Uh, Rob, What is that???!!!

Rob and I have completely different ideas of fun. This is fun! Hmmmmm, here's an idea; you can do the mechanical stuff, Steve can work on the wiring, Neil can work his magic on the interiors, and I can prime, sand, and paint. Now all we need is a body and fender person, and a shop!

My engine guy is rebuilding another engine for me and when I asked him about what oil to use he told me in no uncertain terms to run Valvoline VR1 Racing Oil and nothing else because he knows from personal experience that new oils can wipe out a cam in the first 20 minutes of running the engine...

So what do you think is creating such a downturn at car shows?

The only ones I can think of right off hand are: Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 BF Goodrich Radial TA Cooper Cobras http://www.tirerack.com/tires/TireSearchResults.jsp?customSizeSearch=&width=225%2F&ratio=70&diameter=14 http://www.amazon.com/Cooper-Cobra-GT-All-Season-Tire/dp/B004QGZO82

Correct, the posts are for Lucas lights only.

I'd transplant a 3.7L Infiniti engine, and while I was at it I'd install some Corvette flush door handles on the tops of the doors. Does Dynacorn produce coupes?

If the engine isn't numbers-matching does it being period correct really do any good? Brandon, for the amount of money you're spending have you considered installing a Ford Racing crate motor? http://www.fordracingparts.com/parts/part_details.asp?PartKeyField=11752

Neil, How far off are the brackets from lining up? When I installed their compresssor bracket I had to elongate the holes a little. If I remember correctly any two holes would line up but the third one was about 1/8" off. I have more Lucas lights that I know what to do with so shoot me a PM...

Neil, I have two distributors, one is a single diaphram and the other is a double, but they both show "Motorcraft" C9AZ-12131-A part numbers. If you want one of them let me know and I'll pack it up and send it to you.
