Wow, some great stuff. Again, I love the packaging and all of the illustration that was used in those days.

Looks like it sold for almost 27K!

Splat!  That must've been spectacular to see.  Looks like he went under an 18 wheeler.

Rick Titus told me how it happened. It was during practice. He kept bumping the hay bales at the exit of the turn to make it wider. He didn't know there was an immovable post behind the bales. They used a floorjack in the car and pretty much got it back to the right shape

I always liked the Trans Am coupes.

1966 Shelby GT350/GT350H / Re: Question - Axle Gaskets

Last post by JWH - Today at 02:03:30 PM

Charles, the old gaskets that I had in storage were sold by NAPA but were made by Victor Reinz. But searching the Victor Reinz website, I am confident that they do not make this gasket any longer. However, doing a search using the NAPA/Victor Reinz part number of J 26568, I discovered that this gasket is now manufactured by Mahle with the same part number J 26568. The local Autozone is able to order these and I can pick up Monday morning. I will report back if these are the correct size and part.

Dave, I try and order everything I can from Virginia Mustang so thank you for the tip. I do wish they listed the Inner Diameter of these gaskets on their website. If Autozone comes through, Brant doesn't need to mess with a $6 order and I won't have to wait a week for the gaskets to get delivered. But great to know this is a source and thanks for confirming they are for the small bearing axle.

Thanks.I had a pretty good idea where it comes in through the firewall from the Osborne schematic. I'm just not sure how it runs in the passenger compartment. Whether it runs along with the other vacuum lines or not. For now I have it running on top of the center dash vent to the drivers side and down.
