Looks great DB! A very fitting tribute for a wonderful wife! D

And just like that, gone like a fart in the wind. Ad is gone. D

Well, here we go again. Third time this year. Be careful out there guys. The link below works and then doesn't work. Interesting...

FOR SALE - A12/69 HEMI 15x6 H Wheels We are still producing the H wheels as mentioned above. The 2025 show season is growing short, but we still have a few shows we may be able to deliver to. D

Fender tag?

I have no record of either VIN in my 1970 Lynch Road library. The VIN on the engine/transmission should match your dash tag and fender tag. There are several documented errors of the body stamps being off by 1 digit. This would be another. D

The complete VIN may yield results. The databases several members have compiled over the years are based upon a minimum of the last 6 of the VIN. Good luck with your search. D

2737 = January 24, 1969. 4 - 6 weeks prior to actual build date is common. To answer your question, yes, this a period correct master cylinder for your A12 but a little early. Based upon this assembly date, I believe the casting date is 11/6/68. D

This is what you are looking for. D

I am a little late to this thread Dan. Yes, the 1168 is a date code. I need to follow up as to the representation, 116th day of 1968 or 11/6/68. The other way to determine if this is a period correct cylinder for the A12 is the assembly date code on the nose of master cylinder. We have that...

I pulled a few VR from my stash and found yellow as early as 188, the 18th week of 1968. Each plant had different supplier/supply chains so to put a tight range as mentioned above is not accurate. I do agree though, by April of 1969 all plants were yellow for this model year. The GG quote...

Yellow. John Deere yellow is a good match. The "red" on the earlier units is actually hemi orange that looks red applied to the black on the VR. I respectfully disagree with the range given for red versus yellow transition. Just my 2 cents. D

It is always nice to have original documents for any car. D

The A12 cars do not have torque boxes. As mentioned above, the A12 is an option applied to a standard Super Bee or Road Runner in 1969. D

Do you by chance have the VIN? D
