67 gt500 correct a/c finish and pulley

Looks like - a York compressor painted semi-gloss black along with the clutch

Hope this helps

 

Isn't the compressor a special Shelby unit (C7ZX?) and silver?

 

Thank you sir for posting and jogging my memory - and more important ....providing the correct info.

Don't know what I was thinking

 

Chris,most of the original C7ZX and C8ZX compressors I have seen have been painted silver over a bare aluminum case and not silver painted over a painted black aluminum case. I have seen only one that was bare aluminum with no silver paint but I was unable to confirm if it had been fooled with. If it was my car I would strip the case to bare aluminum and paint it with some eastwood alumablast. The pully's used in 67 were the painted black ones that had the C7 marked brushes mounted on the top. In 68 the early cars used the same external brush type and then changed to the silver 2 piece clutch and donut clutch magnet with a C8ZX ink stamped on the pulley part of the clutch to go with the C8ZX stamped compressor tag. The C7ZX and C8ZX FOMOCO tags are trademark item's and if someone did happen to make them they would have to be licensed by Ford. If they were not licensed a seller would be foolish to list them on a open forum that is monitered by Ford and Shelby for infrigment items.

 

Pinch welds (with overspray) put on the car before the front fenders were installed is a must IMHO. The overspray (on areas that were close to the pinch welds often developed allot of runs

The rear wheel well black out is something that was done on maybe 50% of the San Jose cars that year.

Hope this helps
