I have a set of the Scott Drake inserts after purchasing Burton pieces several years ago, theirs appeared very glossy and grey looking, so I returned them right away, the SD pieces have a much better resemblance to originals in my opinion, I'm not near the parts right at this time, but I think they don't have the front edge curve over, which I know isn't correct for my early 67' but I felt something was better than nothing in the resemblance area.

One NOS 67' Shelby scuff plate emblem, always been in original Ford box.
40.00 takes it.

Does someone know or know how to reach Micheal Lupton? I have very old contact but that's it

Thanks

Just a reminder for early 67' owners, I still have Flat Gas Cap Emblem adapters available . I've been selling these for several years now, they're made to precise specs just like the original aluminum ones and I include the mounting hardware with them.
 Price is 95.00

Isn't the early hose to control valve 1/4" ?

I have FoMoCo 6G date in my 67' 350 October 66' build
I've forgotten when did Ford change over from FoMoCo ton Autolite?

0031 has most of its original Rockford style bolts still, but I need to locate the six that hold the lower section of the grill to the cross bar

 How do you attach pictures here?

Does anyone know what car that is on page 05 of the 2022 Registry?
0998 is Brittany Blue/Black interior
We're just trying to give the NightMist Blue car pictured, it's place

I'm back and after going through two files of notes, I found the number.
It was Deltron DAU 4086 DK Sapphire Blue
Poly OEM 29 GM/General
It's actually a two stage paint, but they mixed it as a single stage in an aerosol can
I'm not saying this is the end all colour match, but you can see my pictures for reference.
I see there is also an aerosol from Accumatch L-17520 Power Steering Pump Blue, but I don't know of any results with it, maybe someone here has tried it?

Hope this helps!

Fortunately i found a few pictures of the my pump , not saying it's the perfect shade light or dark, but I feel it lands somewhere in the circle
I'm open to critique

When I'm back home next week I can send you a PPG paint code I used and had it mixed for a spray can, after trying all the part suppliers paint which weren't even close, this was a welcome treat.
Better paint too in the end.

That rear quarter panel appears to me to be riveted on to the upper section of the original panel , showing no sign of a complete replacement quarter panel, which says it would have been some type of lap joint done, which means body filler would have to run the outer length of that joint, if I'm mistaken please point out if a different approach was used.

It would be beneficial to know what designates a first or second and so on car build, does a number assignment seal the deal or does building and completing a car on such and such a date take precedence?
I'm interested to hear!

If you do get it repaired, you still have to be very careful when fastening the panel, if there are any areas that can get stressed theses panels seem to crack easily

Just a reminder, I have 67' Shelby Flat Gas Cap Emblem Adapters still available including attaching hardware, Made to original specs
95.00 each
