73 Mustang Parts

My body is reminding me that I am not as young as I once was and I am hesitantly listening. The following parts were kept from a donor boat as spares for a non complete project ski tique (probably up for sale in the near future).
Strut, shaft & coupler, complete 27A rudder, ski pylon w/finger, 3" copper exhaust, fuel tank, forgive the description, pitot/fin for speedo & lift rings.

Hi z3tyger, I'm very interested in the ski pylon!! Would happen to know if it would work on a 1975 southwind b/r. also might be interested in the transmission as a spare
Thank you
pete

Pete,
I'll comment. The 73 Mustang pylon will not work. The Southwind is a deep V meaning the dimension between your sole and keel is greater. Then, the Southwind has a higher freeboard so the pylon will also be too short.

Al,
I'd have to say someone was installing some wrong height pylons!



Then he also needs to deal with the distance between the sole and keel.

DrCC, measurements were taken and conclusion reached that the one he’s looking for would likely be longer. As for the tank or any of the parts, the donor was purchased for the motor. My son & I pulled what parts we thought would be useful in the future. The hull had damage & it was scrapped and trailer sold to a local gentleman so that he could drive his boat to a gas station to avoid marina fuel prices. I wish I had spent time reading on this site because we literally threw away some things that may have helped someone in need. As for the “special” coating on the tank...your guess is as good as anyone’s.

The SW/MQ (late 80’s vee hull) pylons are indeed taller than other boats. They are taller than the Bfn, which is taller than the SN. The SN and Tique may be interchangeable (same distance hull to floor) but I cannot confirm. My 78 Tique had a straight pylon in it, whereas all SN pylons I’ve seen (dating back to ‘70, at least) had the above floor bend... so perhaps they too, were different.

The above pictured pylon is a ‘76 or newer as it is 2.5” diam. No telling what model it came out of or what it will fit (without modification) without a few dimensions.

I believe a SW pylon should have been ~15”/39” above/below the floor flange.

It is. If measurements would help ensure that it work for you please ask

Do you still have the rudder assembly?
