Re: Surge/Expansion Tank
If you still need one, I have a good surge tank that should be correct for your '66 Bird. It's in very good condition, cleaned/painted, has one minor dent on top right and some, scratches from storage (see attached pics). $50 plus shipping, that sound reasonable? I'm in the Detroit area.

Re: Cruise O Matic No reverse..All in....
I have the same issue with the cracked case at the reverse servo attachment. Has anyone found a repair for this? I saw a YouTube video where a guy fabricated a steel collar and welded it up, see link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3obnUtwMZs. Other than this, I haven't been able to find any other...

Looking for Grandfathers 1965 T-Bird Special Laundau
I have a friend (Steve Hickman) who is trying to locate his grandfather's 1965 Special Landau, VIN 5Y87Z152602. It was originally sold to his grandfather by the Ford dealership in Marshalltown, IA in 1965. It was originally orange (probably salmon color) with a white vinyl landau top. The car was so...

New Interior Parts
My 60 Bird needs an all new interior, seat covers, foams, door panels, etc. I have been looking at a number of venders that sell reproductions and have received some samples (Lt Blue/Dk Blue vinyl - code 52).

Front Frame/Cross Member Colors
I have a 1958-1966 Restoration Guide, but it doesn't tell me what color(s) the front frame sections and cross members should be. I know the engine compartment itself is body color. However, does this also include the front structural components; both frame rails, engine cross member and front cross ...

Window Sticker Info
Alan, thank you for the detail.
Unfortunately, I have no documentation on my Bird other than the VIN and Data Plate info. Is it possible to ID where the vehicle was originally sold (dealer) or search state vehicle registration information to help put a history of my car together?
