Re: Ford Service/Award Parts Pin?
It's probably an award for meeting a sales goal or something like that. I was a Ford Parts Manager for a few years in the 70s & 80s and would attend the regional meetings. We'd get awards, pins,...

Re: 56 fender apron retainer
16050 is there, it's black starred (not serviced) in the illustration at the time that pub was printed so won't be in the text section. It looks more like a retainer PANEL, not just a clip.

Re: 1961 Fords - Where have they all gone?
Remember in the early & mid 60s when Ford used to have its annual White Sale. I recollect seeing many huge billboards advertising the event in late summer during those years.

Re: General Info
Don, don't you mean FL300? The FL400 is a smaller filter, if memory serves I think the 400s are used on Escorts etc. Not sure if the sealing surface is same as the the FL300.

Re: Ryan Newman Ford
Some of the guys on the NASCAR facebook page said it was oil, not gas that was running onto the ground in that wreck. Had it been gas the car would likely have been a firebomb.

Re: 1916 T Publication
Thanks for the info. As said, he has no interest in selling it but wanted a sort-of value for it probably in order to either share it to his grandkids, or to protect it from further deterioration.

I still have the heads that came off the engine, ECZ's were used on the rebuild. I'll have to look at those old ones & see what the #s are on them.

Re: original paint y blocks
Sal that engine above has the carb & intake you got from me a few years ago, not sure if the manifold was painted too. I got the block near Akron Ohio but don't know its origin.

Re: original paint y blocks
Closest color we could find to what was on the block when I got it. Can't remember what it is called.
