jensenracing77 started the topic Turbo tags, color, and turbo date codes in the forum Discussion Topics – Ask the Experts 7 years, 2 months ago
I would like to make a list of known original turbos with the original tags and the known original color. I am only looking for information on turbos that you are sure have the original tags on them. I only have one red turbo but has been apart before. I am assuming it is the correct tag. Here is a list of all the turbos I have or have had that I…[Read more]

They picked up the car today and I could not be happier with the new owners. They are also very pleased with the car. They are not doing anything with it for a couple years but their early thought is to do more detail work on the car and leave it as is. They are building a museum in Florida over the next couple years and this car will eventually…[Read more]

jensenracing77 started the topic Lower back glass trim wanted in show quality condition in the forum Discussion Topics – Ask the Experts 7 years, 3 months ago
I would like to find a set of lower back glass chrome trim in near perfect original condition or NOS. Something that the original chrome looks great on with no pitting. The black painted area can be faded but the chrome needs to be great. Willing to pay above retail if they fit my needs.
Not interested in any other quality for these two parts. I…[Read more]

jensenracing77 replied to the topic Paint Color, I have been wrong for almost 8 years in the forum Discussion Topics – Ask the Experts 7 years, 3 months ago
Thanks Jim. I am hoping to find the correct shade that is not faded. I am going to restore a set of 15 inch wheels for the 4 speed car and put a set of radials on them. I had 13’s on that car that I happen to have that were road worthy but now took them off to put on the 63 I sold. These 15’s will be the tires and wheels I use after the car is…[Read more]

All these years for some reason I have been saying our cars were Garnet Mist. I went to get a really small batch of paint made to paint a set of wheels and was all confused between what I thought and what their documents showed. Well, for some strange reason I thought code N was Garnet mist but it is Royal Mist. So now that I know our cars are…[Read more]

I did want to add a couple more pictures. One is the very first registration to the car and the other is the registration from 71 that matches the license plates on the car. I got every registration the car ever had.

Well that did not take long. This car is sold pending payment. They will be here next week to pick it up. From what I understand it will be a couple years before they do anything with it but have been looking for a documented 4 speed car for a long time.
Thanks for following along

I cleaned under the hood some. I don’t know why they painted the front section in primer but I did find where the original sticker was under the primer. It is starting to flake off but you can sure see where the factory put it on .

Would a 205 70 15 fit on the original 15 inch wheels? Would they fit between the axle and body to mount them?

jensenracing77 replied to the topic wheel/tire size in the forum Discussion Topics – Ask the Experts 7 years, 3 months ago
May sound crazy but how is tire diameter measured? When I convert my original 600 15 tires to radial it give me 185/70 15 but when I check the diameter on google it gives me 25.2 inches. My original 600 15 measures 26.25 at the max diameter when just using a tape measure. From what I see it looks like 205 70 15 is the same diameter at 26.3 but it…[Read more]

It would clean up better if someone was doing it that knows what they are doing but for the most part this is as good as it will get by me. Looks ok if you want that survivor look but as I said before, it really needs restored.
