Coil Bracket

Is this the correct coil bracket for a 65 non AC car ?  Thanks,  Brian

Depend on when the engine was built. Focusing mostly on the hole feature.

Would not expect to see and don't find on unrestored cars,  a coil bracket like that (for example) on your late 65 V8

Ok Thank you Jeff.  The one that is on my 65 does not have a hole in the strap and the angle cut faces upward.  Opposite of the one picture.  I will try the 68 site and see what happens.  Brian

Thank you Jeff.  I think this bracket is being eliminated as an original piece for a BB Mustang.  Brian

Leaning towards an early 65 FE myself after looking at some pictures
