Seems like a while ago someone asked of the rubber surounding in the engine 
compartment being stapled to the metal holders. I pulled the engine out of 
my 66 500 4dr which was assembled in LA and noticed it's rubber shroud was 
stapled from the back side. Seems like other assembly plants kept on doing 
things that Willow Run plant had stopped doing.. Breakdown in 
communications? My 66 500 4dr was assembled with factory air, 140 engine, 
4speed trans. The data plate indicates this. Must have been a special order 
as it was shipped to Phoenix Az. after assembly.
