Authentic parts?

[Clayton]

I’m a little confused but are these lights the front side marker lights? What color goes on which side? Hard to see in all the pictures I have.

Also I see a bubble on each door and one on the pas side rear tail. What are these?

The 5C/557 “Lamp identification downwards” light was fitted on the R/H rear wheel arch, see photo in post #17 above.
Pretty sure 1075 was amber.
The “bubbles” are marker lights to illuminate the roundel / race number.

I think you will find that car number 6/ 1075 had Red pit marker lights Frount and side ,number7/ 1076 had green pit Mark light I believe this to be correct

Thanks! I never noticed the front marker light in any of the photos. It’s the same 5C/615?

OK in November 2021 Ford GT Forum Rally 13 in Scottsdale . Ford surprised us with the arrival of P1075 on our track day. These are photo's I took of the car not knowing I would later order a toolroom car. Notice no lamp in the grill and RR quarter lamp is red in color. Sliding door handles not push style. Left side battery disconnect. These pictures show the car in race condition and all kinds or Patina. Hope this helps. Not sure how many I can post.

Looking for information on these two parts also. Is this just a normal hood pin? Anyone remake this filler neck? Was it only on one side? Did they run an oil catch or positive venting the engine?

Pat the Weber system are individual per cylinder so no PCV system as it would cause a misfire to pull that much vacuum off one carb base. Catch cans up high by the hatch pin mounts. See picture.

The hood pins look like they are mounted on the standard chassis mounts, with the same bolt spacing as is found on the Cortina MK I slam panel latches.
I suspect they are attached to a sheet of material that is bolted in as per the original slam panel catches.

See this thread.

Some photos and details of the rear slam catches.
Huge thanks to James for helping me locate the details.
I certainly appreciate all the help he has given the community.

I can see the side of the latch here with the nut coming through to secure the rod.
