1964 1/2 - 1965 / 65 Fastback Trunk Measurement

« Last post by Armond on March 24, 2025, 06:59:42 PM »

I need a measurement, note picture, from the back of the trunk divider to the center of the hole on a fastback.  I am putting a 65 back together that had been cut up for racing etc. I just want to make sure this is correct before I start to weld it back together, any help appreciated, thank you!

Consider that the scan of the MPC is the Ford number for the rattle can , if someone wanted to purchase the paint in that easy use form, rather than paint color code

I gather both manual and PS got bigger then ?

I had a heck of a time finding the larger drag link ...

Thanks, Bob.

[I did ask Jeff/Charles to pull out the comments and post all this data to a new thread]

Thanks Jeff and John. I went to the library and found the interior codes for a 67. I found Ditzler 13004 light blue poly & Ditzler 13056 for dark blue poly. I tried to research/cross reference the Ford codes John sent. I can?t figure out what Ditzler or PPG number they cross to. I guess the 2 Ditzler codes, 13004 & 13056, will work for our body man?

Thank you for your help and patience.

Right. The pump bracket is different, the can and inside pump is offset, the outlet fitting is much bigger and the hose is different. The 70 PS drag link is also different than the other years. It is larger in diameter than even the 69 drag link.

I chronicled all of that here:

Bill, after approximately April 1/69  1969 production Boss Mustangs and Shelby's with heavy duty suspension which were typically cars equipped with the wider F6015 tires all got the larger tie rod ends which required different draglink and spindles.

There is a thin supplement to the 69 "Shop manuals" specifically for the Shelby GT350 500. In it is a Shelby wiring schematic for the Shelby unique wiring added to the base Mustang model during conversion. It is not in any of the regular Mustang manuals.

Parts / Wheel ID

Can someone please help me to id these Magnums I was recently offered? They are 14x6 and have a FORD stamp. Just late over-the-counter parts or something rare?:

What was logic behind Ford wiring it that way?

Fog lights are supposed to be used in the fog, and "running lights" are also required to be on. To wire fog lamps to do that, Ford "tapped" into the regular headlight circuit in the simplest way.

When I turn on fog lights , ammeter/oil pressure lights and interior lights come on. Is that common as well?

Same as above. Both my 65 GT and 66 GT Mustangs are wired similarly.

What is strange is my Lucas lights don?t work?.. no power to lights.

Sorry, what Lucas lights?

An electrical assembly manual would be a great help to you in solving some of these problems.

That's an understatement. Get a full set of Mustang Assembly Manuals.

There should be a circuit breaker near the fuse block for the fog light. An electrical assembly manual would be a great help to you in solving some of these problems.
