Ford Talladega and Mercury Spoiler Details and pictures


If you get 25 rare cars in one place, you can not help but look at how different or similar, all can be. During a recent family gathering, Ford Talladega, we took our cameras around to some details of these cars to see. See what we found.
This spoiler is a sticker with a space between "Cyclone" and "spoiler". No one in the bottom of what exactly?


"T" on the door seems to Talladega since the early cars to depart at the end of the car. Prototypes are made of aluminum alloy and look smooth, early production examples seem to differ, but a smooth surface, and the newer versions have more "brushed" finish the last few cars had stickers, no signs.
You know the change? Why change?


This is a "T" on the prototype Banjo Matthews. It is very similar, but different from the production car.
Here the "T" of the subsequent production of Talladega. It is difficult to see in the picture, but there is a brushed finish on the surface.
This is indicated by "T" at Talladega last. This is not an original sticker, but play is that it looks like one that came with the car when it was rebuilt.


The question of what is good consistency in the league at Talladega is always black when you sometimes Talladega two owners each other. The car has a smooth surface and underground texture, others are somewhere in between. What do you think, and why?



Spoiler / Spoiler II rear wing is also a topic of conversation. Given that the seller was delivered in a suitcase is not always installed. Almost all coaches were Dan Gurney and Cale Yarborough cars have black wings competition. But we are original DG blue car with a wing here, and CY is a car with a red sash. It comes from the factory, dealer painted, or ...?
Each Talladega, spoiler and rear spoiler II also came with a wrap steering wheel. Did you know that is installed at the factory or store. This is one of the original.
Another question I have heard much in the show is: "Do all 1969 428 Talladega cars are equipped with a CA smog or car?" Comments?














Looking at these pictures, there is another question will be answered. When Ford changed from chrome valve covers aluminum enclosure? Early cars have Chrome and let cars are made of aluminum, but when I switch?
What about Talladega and spoiler literature and annoying waste and cut marks on the original car?
