I have one of these, and will look to see if the instructions are with it

OK. I have a cam for an Edsel w/ the 410, did not know if it would interchange. Good luck in your search.

Do you have an idea what would interchange w/ this camshaft?

Would like to buy a rt. front fender for a FULL SIZE 1960 Ford car. Fairlane, Galaxie, or wagon would work, any body style. I am located in north Alabama. Could pick up within a couple hundred miles or so. Thanks. David.

40 Million Fire Extinguishers Recalled

Received one today ( 3-1/2 wks), Should get the other one next week. -
Tinindian....Thank you. I was close. Most similar jars I have seen have been of a slightly larger size, but may not have been strictly for an extra amount of fluid. This one is a bit too new for application on my 1960 model car. David.

Found this in my stash : triangular glass jar, no lid present, has a nice bracket and the mounting screws. Approx. 3" across corners on bottom, approx. 8" high. Embossed on bottom: Patented, Ford Canada, 1961, 2. Adell Chemical Co. Detroit Mich. Bracket has Adell Chemical Co., Detroit Mich, inscribed on inside center. Thinking it may be an underhood container for washer antifreeze. Opinions? Pictures enclosed. Thanks, David 1960 Edsel Ranger 1959 Edsel Ranger 1958 Edsel Bermuda 9 pass. 1958 Edsel Citation

I have for sale, a very nice shop manual for : 1937 Oldsmobile, 6 & 8. Very clean. Copyrighted by Olds Motor Works, 1936. 247 pages. Includes 1937 Oldsmobile Mechanics Guide card. I do not know if this would be a reproduction, as that is not indicated in this book Just has the copyrighted information (date) on the first page. No handwritten notes, or greasy prints. Asking $20.plus postage. Thanks for your interest. David.

Thanks all for your replies. Seeing as no further interest, parts went to the dumpster today.

NTX5467, lump..... Thanks for the information. Parts are in original FoMoCo boxes from the early 60s. From a history of the shop, before I acquired it, I believe the parts were to be used on 60s Ford trucks, 3/4 -1 ton and larger. I just don't have an idea of the engine size/s that these pistons and rings might have been used in. Hate to throw them out if someone could use them. I'll list the part #s if anyone has an interest. Parts are free, just cost of shipping to an interested party.
-
I have a number of FoMoCo piston/pin assemblies, and ring sets that were left on the shelves in my shop when I closed. Is there anyone here who could give an application (when furnished w/ part #s) as to possible year/years, and engine/engines displacement/s that the parts would have been used for? Most appear to be early to mid 60s part #s, with a '50s part or two thrown in the mix. Knowing what the year/application is, the parts might be useful to someone on this forum. Thanks, David.

This thread is just another reason for us to list our location in our profile. Might help another member to verify a part/ location/individual when looking for parts/cars. Our forum members are always glad to help others in these situations.

WTB: 1960 Galaxie/Fairlane turn signal switch
edselsouth1 replied to edselsouth1's topic in Automobiles and Parts - Buy/Sell
Installed the turn signal switch from the previously mentioned '61, and it does like it should. Just have to sort the rest of the butchered wiring. Thanks to all for your help and suggestions. David. -
WTB: 1960 Galaxie/Fairlane turn signal switch
edselsouth1 replied to edselsouth1's topic in Automobiles and Parts - Buy/Sell
rick60.... I went to the salvage yard today, and pulled a switch from a '61 Fairlane. The switches are physically different, but mount the same as the '60. this '61 switch has a plastic cancelling cam, whereas the '60 switch was of metal. Should still work. Now to sort out all of the butchered wiring. Missing connectors, etc. Thanks for all comments and suggestions. David. -
WTB: 1960 Galaxie/Fairlane turn signal switch
edselsouth1 replied to edselsouth1's topic in Automobiles and Parts - Buy/Sell
cahartley.... Agreed that the switch looks really close. I'm going to check out the '61 Fairlane at the salvage yard, and see if it will work. I can compare the two side by side. I do have a new switch that we purchased for the '67-'68 Mustangs we had, but it cannot be made to work. Thanks, David. -
WTB: 1960 Galaxie/Fairlane turn signal switch
edselsouth1 replied to edselsouth1's topic in Automobiles and Parts - Buy/Sell
cahartley... Thanks for the link. That switch doesn't show to fit the 1960 full size Ford cars. Falcon, Comet T-Bird, truck are the applications, and C&G couldn't verify that it would be the proper application, even though the general part number would correspond with that in the master Parts Catalogue. I have located today a 1961 Fairlane 4 dr. that still has the complete column in it, and will go to see about it tomorrow. Thanks, David -
Want to buy a good turn signal switch for a full size 1960 Fairlane/Galaxie. The metal contacts in mine are broken, and a repair isn't possible. I can find the switch for Falcon/Comet, and full size Mercury, but do not know if they are interchangable with that in the Fairlane/Galaxie. Thanks, David.

I currently have a '58 Bermuda 9 pass. (in restoration), a '59 Ranger 2 dr sed., and a '60 Ranger 2 dr. sed.(also in restoration/refurbishment). I've had other Edsels, but they have gone on down the road. David.
