Thanks all.  gives me a place to start.

Sorry.  It's a late 1965 and already checked bulb with a fresh one and no joy.

The man who continued the development of the Mustang after Henry Ford II said no.  May he rest in peace.  Thanks, Lee!

Trying to install a power top and need a shot of how the circuit breaker mounts to the solenoid with the starter cable.  Thanks in advance.

Hope this helps.  I've heard you have to cut the dash from some and you don't form others.  I've not done this, maybe someone else who has can chime in

We hear you and know that we're doing this kinda in reverse!  Love of certain things can make one do things that make others scratch their heads.   

Dan already has a 66 fastback w/ Pony interior, 289 that's mildly built with a 4 speed.  He bought this coupe because it's a 2 owner, documented 48,000 mile factory Emberglo with 2 tone pony interior (parchment). He's loved that color combo when he first saw it at age 11 back in 66.  It just happens to have a 6 cyl and 3 speed. He's not crazy about the 3-speed and since it's a 6, he'd prefer the the automatic.

This car isn't being built for performance as he gets all the fun he wants with the fastback  He just wants a simple cruiser, hence the automatic.  We're just trying to get a handle on everything involved with the swap so we can start to source parts.  

We appreciate all info regarding parts for the swap and any tips from anyone who may have done it.

Thanks, 
Tony

Thanks BB!

when putting in new convertible interior rear quarter foam and upholstery?  Any tips and tricks appreciated.  Tony 

New acquisition and looking for opinions for replacement rear leafs on a '65 convertible with 289 4bbl with dual exhaust as the car sags on the driver's side.  I've done it before on a '66 coupe using parts vendor kit with good results.  Looking to replace with stock rate springs and regular eyelet.  A couple of buddy's swear Eaton's are better.  Is there any advantage of going through Eaton directly other than cost?   Are Eaton's better?  They are not that much more expensive but when I can get free shipping from the parts vendor total price is a consideration.  I'm willing to pay more for better parts, just need to make sure it's worth it.

Thanks Tony

Looking for some knowledge here.  A fellow enthusiast was contacted by a lady who's husband bought her a 1966 coupe new in the day and they still own it.  He has passed and she is looking to sell, but now wonders if she has a car worth some value as she was offered $20,000 for it off the bat.  It is just a plain C code coupe with standard interior and automatic
. 
The reason for the question is that it was produced at the Pilot Plan as noted in the VIN with letter "S"  6S07Cxxxxxx.

I know that there were 15 cars produced pre-production for evaluation, etc.  and there are 3 accounted for.  The problem is that I can't see Ford holding it for 18 months before putting it on the line.  Does anyone have any additional information that we might be able to determine an accurate value for her?
Thanks, Tony

 

Finally back to work on the car after this long, cold winter and noticed one freeze plug on the ground.  Motor in the car and was without fluid other than oil.  Haven't inspected the rest yet, but wondering if I should replace them all or just the one that popped?
Thoughts?

Nice!  Creative use.
