Re: Front Disc brakes for the 64

It should all just bolt on as far as I'm aware. You might get new wheel bearings.

Re: sniper efi

Maybe when you turned a corner or bend the fuel sloshed to one side and sucked air, it happens with race cars when cornering. The way they overcome it is to have what they call a swirl pot, basically a small tank that stays full of fuel. A bit like this below.

Re: Rose-beige

Where did you get G as White? M has been Wimbledon White from 64. Unless your talking Mustang or is G some code that you named your bird. G Prairie Tan in 64, Ivy Gold 65 and Medium Blue Metallic in 66. have a look at Nissan they have a similar color but darker, I think they call it beige.

Re: In tank fuel pump solution

I have a BMW motorcycle with similar set up. It has a bracket at the bottom of the pump that it sits in. The bracket is attached to the plate at the top.

Nice work. Fit some hose clamps on to stop pump coming off.

Re: In tank fuel pump solution

You could try a threaded rod a grommet and a bolt/washer top and bottom. Use o ring connector both ends, tighten bolts inner and outer if you follow my drift.

Re: NSS spring 1965 convertible

The repops are crap. Bought one about 10 years ago to replace mine, mechanic was installing and it fell apart in his hands. He used to old nos one and some parts from the repop and got it running. I think Lincoln ones are the same, someone might be able to confirm that.

Re: "Lower Finish Panel" fasteners.

Don't forget there are also other pieces that fit along there that hold the wiring loom in place.
Scrub that I see you have them.

Re: Transmission swap

Haven't done the swap myself but you'll need to modify the transmission cross member and the trans/engine bracket. If you do a search there are posts showing how to do that. Maybe some exhaust mods and I think the gear markers won't line up on your steering column.
