FORD script condenser

[Gary Gregory]

I started a rebuild on a distributor i just picked up and found a FORD script condenser. Ive rebuilt several but this is the first one ive found like this...pretty cool !

 

[Steve Plucker]

Does it have the part number of "A-12300" on it?

What color is it??? Black?????

I looked through my box of old condensers and found one with script, and a original fiber washer and copper plated screw. It has the script and part number on the body and the tab.

that is great...are you using it or would you consider selling it??

In my opinion the script condeser is a later part by ford.

I have 3-4 nos condensers in fomoco boxes, and a few loose. There are at least 3 different size scripts and part numbers on these. If I get a chance to take some pics I'll post them.

Did one of the condensers have the part number on the condenser body itself rather the tab?

Hope you can see this...it's my first try at adding a photo. It has Ford on front and back of the tab with the number 95

If I remember correctly, there are a few like the one pictured in post 7, i can't remember off the top of my head the differences, will try to dig them out tomorrow.

Hi Jim Mason,

Here are pics of the box that my condenser came in.
Pretty sure the condenser is in my original unrestored car that was in
judging at Dallas 2008. Car is in storage in another city.

Thinking that FoMoCo parts were post Model A Ford era replacements.

I do have a couple of these also and despite the age they are working great!

I have way too many parts in way too many buildings! I can only locate 3 nos condensers at the moment.

 

[Steve Wastler]

This one has a smaller part number on the body

 

[Steve Wastler]

This one has the oval, but fomoco inside, small part number and no markings on the tab, this one is obviously later production year.

 

[Steve Wastler]

The 2011 revised standards call for a black enameled body, with bronze lug. Beginning in Aug. 29 cadmium plating is optional. the grounding tab had no markings until july 31 when a lengthwise ford script was added.

pretty sure FoMoCo logo dates to about 1952.
