My 07 with basic bolt ons and a tune

they are not rolled front or back and do not rub at all. But my 235/60s on my Shelby rub with rolled lips. I think the design shape of the 69-70 Cougar fenders allows the clearance, as they would probably most definitely rub on our 68 Cougar.

I like the stance on your Cougar, as it is old school with the rear lifted. When I bought my KR back in 1981, it had 275 60 x 15 Comp TA's but with air shocks.
What front tire size are you running to get the forward rake? I use 215 70 x 15's as they are about the same diameter as the 255 60 x 15 rear tires.

F60-15 Polyglas up front for the Day 2 look. I'm also running 620 coil springs.

Unfortunately my replacement leaf springs have a lot of arch. I bought them probably over 25 years ago to replace my broken leaf. I actually have lowering blocks in it right now to get a good stance. My brother and I have been talking about rebuilding the stock springs to get the correct arch and look back. Good eye though!

What size are you running? Looks like 275 60 x 15's. I was looking at J60 x 15's but I like the look on your car. No wheel lip or leaf spring interference?

Scuffed and painted a set of 15 x 7 black steel wheels today for mounting and found the old Lakewood traction bars with J-bolts up in the attic.

These are the J60s on 15x7. No interference but they are on a Cougar. If you really are concerned on fitting these in a mustang wheel well I could put on my Shelby to see.

I run them on the street on my Eliminator, very sticky. Have them on 15x7s and nothing special about mounting.

No modifications done to hood.

I have 9DB. Original from my SCJ Eliminator, build date 5/17/69 Dearborn.

When I saw #20 in the early 80 when Claude owned it, it had a aluminum tent pole attached to passenger side radiator support to hold up the hood. Car was kinda rough, with a 2 barrel carb on an adapter with stock carb in the trunk. Car had power steering and standard fan, no a 66 hipo fan. Very cool car indeed.

For clarity 67 GT350 did not come with a 66 hipo fan. In 67 the hipo used a 4 blade fan that was also used on non hipo applications.

Yes Bob, just stating how the car was at one time after it was restored and before it was restored. Power steering was reinstalled and hopefully original fan is back in place, (can't see from photos).  Beautiful Shelby indeed.

Congratulations to you on purchase and Markboss on his sale!!! Enjoy

It is a great deal, paid $100 for mine years ago.

I replaced the solenoid after discussing it with my Home Slice and "Gators" husband who is also my Home Slice in addition to triangulating the discussion with "Gators" father in law over a beer and a burger and a hot dog and a cup cake in 90 degree heat.

Glad it worked out Brother

Paxtom label was on quite a few units, even marked with a S.

#2354 has the original orange/chrome foil Paxton label on its original blue supercharger which was installed at LAX factory..... not the common seen "cobra supercharged" white/blue label.
