The purple one is for the water valve, the schematics show it on the left side but on my car it is on the right looking into the engine compartment. If you need to trouble shoot it, cap one port off on ASSY 19C828 connect the black hose to vacuum, start the car, turn the fan motor on and operate...

Try this.

Yes we all love those "I'm gonna fix her up one day" people. While not an American muscle car, it took me a decade to get this Datsun 2000 roadster from a guy parked in the desert under a tree with no top on. It was just a fun car to road race.

The front and back window trim? I picked up a box at Autozone that worked pretty well. Also you can check at a body shop that's been around for a while, they might have some old school hardware.

I would look up the VIN, you said it was a 2 barrel but a lot can happen in 50 years. My VIN is 2F05H, H for 2 barrel. If it is an M, Q or R could be worth a lot more. If you are set up to repair rusty panels that is not too much of a problem. If not, body shops are pricey.

Thanks for the update, it might help others down the road.

From what I read the wind is raising his hood at speed, and there may not be enough adjustment left to correct it. I think at times we expect too much out of our 50 + year old hardware.

Disconnect the coil wire. Pull the number 1 spark plug. I cover the hole with my thumb and bump the starter...DO NOT PUT YOUR FINGER IN THE HOLE. You can feel the compression. Pull the distributer cap and look at where the rotor is pointing. It should be at number 1 or close. Pretty much what...

I had the exhaust rubbing on the driveshaft on a Torino I owned years ago. Squealed pretty loud. Maybe check your front and rear axle bearings.

Does your car have hood locks? If so you can adjust those to keep the hood down but the sheet metal will flex at the hood locks so not too tight there. Gently push the hood down after it is latched, if you can move it down you may just have to adjust the hood stops up slightly. A 1/4 inch is...

I could never get mine to adjust to the quarter window seal. I ended up separating the trim from the window and rolled it out using a 4 inch abs pipe. There is also adjustment in the quarter window. Sounds like you have a small gap though and should be able to adjust it no problem. Check the...

I bit the bullet and ordered a 4 core from U.S. Radiator. It was pricey but I live in the desert so I needed the extra cooling for sure. Have not had a over heat problem since and I plan on running electric fans in the future.

After much thought on your window problem, I decided to dig out an old switch D3AB-14529 used in ford and mercury. If you wired this switch by the schematics it wouldn't work, that 5th wire needs to provide the signal to the motor opposite the two connected together which means you may have to...

Try moving the front RH window switch to one of the back windows. It may be possible they used the wrong switch.

Do yourself a favor and lube that filler neck and rubber.

During my first real engine tuning number 1 cylinder was dead, I thought my timing light was broken but it turned out some crud was on the node in the cap.

Damn, now I need to go check mine.

I have 3 of those front bezels you can have. I am getting rid of my spare parts.

I special ordered mine from Mustang Market with no holes because I added power windows and converted the racing mirrors to electric and located the switches in the ash tray. My panels are still off so let me know if you need the measurements for that door handle drop bracket.

Nice find, both of my heads were cracked at the 2 and 7 cylinder valve stems but they were able to repair them.
