65 C code Engine Mount Finishes
« on: November 30, 2019, 09:29:10 PM »
Hi guys,
Thought I'd add to this post as I have a Oct 64 built SJ 289 C code. Just wanting to know the correct finishes on the motor mount assemblies. Lets call the m the "cast" part, the "middle steel" part and the "Insulator". I have the hardware finishes from the library on here but can't find anything on the easy motor mounts.
Thanks,
Dan.

Thought we had covered this before but in most cases the question included a list of "what the original finishes are"  so lets focus just on these few items.


The following details below are from a Fal Deaarborn car but I believe the finishes were the same so hope these help

You will find a number of nice close ups in the Unrestored - Fall 64 Built Dearborn A Code Coupe - Picture Thread located in the Unrestored Picture section Reply #5 mostly

Here are some addition pictures that should help also




Bare cast lower (to frame/body) mounts

So am I correct in stating these finishes below:
Cast brackets - Natural cast finish
Intermediate brackets - Natural steel finish (Or are these phosphate and oil???)
Insulator mounts - Semi gloss black
Heat shield - Natural steel finish

Thanks guys. I'll post finished photo's once I'm done.

confirmation that you got it. The intermediate brackets are bare steel but some will do phosphate and oil because of ease of maintenance.
