Rescued from a Colorado Farm...

Post by 66CustomCab »

Greetings. I've spent my life in love with Classic Mustangs, but now I have a new toy! My wife found me a 66 F100 Custom Cab 352 3spd 4WD. Cool, huh? Problem is I know nothing about these systems, so you will hear from me a lot.

All kinds of crazy things have been done to this truck, but clearly the first thing I need to address is to replace the missing Clutch inspection cover. Not even the bolts are there. Having a tough time finding one, can anyone help with a source?

Really looking forward to this adventure, and hope I can be as helpful as I will be needy! lol

Welcome to the page!!! The cover should be for all Fe bell housings not just 3 speed so finding one should not be too bad. Currently i do no have one but you should be able to get something going. Congrats and :wel: from Georgia!!!

Updates...

As I said, I've only had it a few days, and only looked at it in the dark after work.

Turns out it's a 4 speed, and believe it or not, I found the clutch Inspection cover at MustangsUnlimited! Love that my mustang sources will still be useful.

Thanks for the welcomes, I will certainly be around... :)
