My 1st 1965 Formula S I looked at in 1974 and eventually bought about 1976 had a 4sp and 8 3/4 - I still have the fender tag along with a lot of the parts from it - it had the side swiped as it sat out on the street. My current 1965 S 4 sp is a Feb build with a 7 1/4 posi. Parted a 1966 auto S...

Great qu great question - been in the same spot as well....

FlimFlamMan.....good movie...sad about the Val convert....

Sadly one reason I got rid of my matching # 1968 Formula S as a roller - could not fine quarter panels in the 80's and my right side was caved in from bumper to door.

M Me too !

Thanks for the input !

Yep seemed to have that set up in a early Cuda....a 1964 with factory A/C that a clutch fan that was put on there at some point trying to keep it cool. Re-did the heads for the guy to unleaded style and that worked pretty good....stop and go traffic getting into the upper 90's was still tuff.

A Commando 273 vrs a stock 273 2bl.....is the chrome spark plug attachment on the Commando.

if it ain't broke.......

Yep....a picture from the owner might help.....as far as a LA273 and a LA318 a quick look at the intake which will be almost flat on a 273 and a 318 will have more of a rise....if you can't see any #'s.....

Being inside tells you something.....and a carport? Might be a good deal.....and my story - I saw a 1966 mopar on CL from down Houston way and already knew what those area's cars looked like but this one seams or looked to be okay.....get down there to look and dang if it isn't from Kansas....

yep....looking at the underside pictures...........

The quarter panels looked like they have been replaced - correct ?

see if I can dig mine out.....

yep....the Commando air cleaner is on top of the hood along with the air cleaner for that Holley....it's upside down....

7669584945 is the post #......sorry I'm not good with the linc......it's in Hubbard, Oregon ....he posted his name ....Brandon to call 917/207-2656

thanks

It's on CL on the upper West Coast - not mine but thought I'd mention it. For that part of the world it really doesn't look that bad. It has the 273 Comando with a Holley on top.....with a 4 speed it might just have a 8 3/4 under it. Go look and it the engine turns - that's not to bad a price at...

Could we get an under hood picture ?

Yep....just a upgrade package from the manufactor.....kinda like all the braces the Stang needed as you added HP.....not a trip to Shelby land .

Oh.....now we are talking packages.......

I Like.....what I'm seeing are the optional power brakes you don't see to often - power steering - which it doesn't need - dash pad that you don't see that often and the wood wheel which are options. The fender looks like it has the right holes for the Form S badge. Not sure what your not seeing...

My first Cuda was just a 273 with a 2bl in 1975 but I snuck up on my buddy with the same 289/2bl in his Mustang and before he knew it was me - we were dragging down Westmoreland here in Big D by the old Gibson's......I pulled him by half a fender ! Owned and drove a 1965 2+2 and would pick a A -...

Does the bellhousing fit up to the transmission ? Looks like you have the overdrive 4 speed which reqires the right bellhousing first.

Guess you had to be a kid in 1970/71 when it was on tour to like it.....like I was.....

Funny.....I've owned them all Early A, B's and C's and although I'd get some thumbs up for my C bodies.....not going to count the B's....it's my early A bodies I like and get the most thumbs ups....they are that rare compared to the others. Oh...and I've owned a nice orginal 1965 2+2 basic...

The top photo is a factory drilled standard steel crank and the bottom is a 360 auto cast crank using a factory input shaft off a four speed for measurements I used - which is a little pitted for use.....maybe this might help or not.....

Just when I deleted all my SB Mopar pictures on this topic !!! I was measureing my 360 motors which both had auto's behind them against my factory 4 speed crank and came to that 1/4 need. Before cutting one for the 833 overdrive I want to put behind - I'll put the bellhousing on the block and...

Great pictures !

Yep - really sorry to learn about your dad passing. My dad was hard bent into early Mustangs starting around 1976 after fixing one up for my older sister who was about 25yrs old at the time. Funny it seamed we all got off trying to figure out that car from the optional parts. A performance Mopar...
