    Rear suspension problems....

    Is this setup welded to the axle housing or does it bolt on? Would those springs be too heavy? Blue Thunder: Any idea when you plan to start working on this? I sure would like to follow the project when you do. Also: Any idea what a junk yard might charge for something like that?

    Nice King Cobra...

    It seems that I heard that you could not get a sunroof on these from the Ford factory, but dealerships would install them as an option. I am wondering the same thing.

    Rear suspension problems....

    This sounds something like I had in mind and the junk yard option would make it cheaper. The thing I liked about the setup I am checking into is that the front of the ladder bar (sorry I don't know the technical term) hooks into the same mount that the front of the leaf spring attaches to...

    mustang II: Hardest car to wash?

    Great tip! I don't know why I never thought of that.

    I hate tires (burn out vids)

    Awesome video and great looking car. :nice: Would love to see more videos of II's in action like this. Wish I had the equipment to make a video.

    Rear suspension problems....

    I am in the process of trying to figure out what I want to do about getting traction. My right leaf spring looks like it is bowed or twisted outward on the passanger side of the car and all of the rubber is rotted and looks original to the car. I am considering two options which would both...

    1973 Mustang.....

    I don't think I would want to spend much time writing a convincing letter, but I do think it would be funny to send him a link to this thread. :rlaugh:

    1973 Mustang.....

    Ok, I found this funny. There is a Mustang II Cobra on e-bay that is listed as a 1973! The seller actually added notes indicating this is a 1973 and not a 1976! hahaha. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2468240997&category=6236

    What do YOU guys think my car is worth?

    It still blows my mind how cheaply II's are priced. I have had several people ask me what my II is worth. Keep in mind that my car is not original, not a Cobra, not even a fastback, but a Ghia. I usually respond to the question with the question 'what do they think?" I have been surprised...

    Off center...

    I was noticing that the rearend/axle is mounted under my car about 1/2" off center. The passanger side wheel sticks out just a little further. The rearend was removed from the car at one time. I would like to slide the axle over and center it. I also want to make sure it stays lined up...

    White Face Gauge Overlays are Here

    Just out of curiosity, not saying I would do it, but what would stop someone from just scanning these stickers in and printing all the want? Since this is an update for a Ford product, I don't think this could be copy protected? Maybe they could be printed on some stickers that might work...

    New project for the II

    Are you planning to build more off the prototype? I'd love to have a ready fit unit for the II.

    Let the Spankings Begin!

    Last I heard it is for sale. The owner is building a new big block ride, unfortunetly not a II.

    Aarrggghh!!

    Funny reading all of this. It was less than a year ago that I could not hardly give away a NO RUST 74' fastback that was straight and only 39k to boot. All I wanted was $500 and eventually took way less since I lost my storage space. Sadly enough that car got scrapped cause nobody wanted it...

    275/50R15's

    I tried the wheels out last night (Weld 15x8 w/ 4.5" backspacing and 275/50/15 BFG drag radials). I will start by saying that the wheels looked great under the car, but the back spacing was too far back at 4.5" that I could not bolt them on. :bang: The tires were hitting leave springs as...

    275/50R15's

    I am trying to hook up with a guy locally who is selling a pair of Weld Draglites 15x8 with 4.5" backspacing. They have 275 15 50's, BFG Drag radials mounted on them. If I can get a test fit I will report back. I mounted an old 15x7 turbine (which I measured at 5" of backspacing) and it...

    Kaase SB-Ford Cylinder Heads

    Those heads do sound awesome, impressive results. What surpised me is the stock 100k engine not blowing up when turned nearly 8k rpms. So if I read this article correctly then if I bought these heads I could run a small solid roller cam and not have to worry about notching the pistons because...

    Coolant in oil

    I would think that if that were a noise caused by loss of compression that you would continue to hear noise, not as loud, after. I would guess it might sound a little like an exhaust leak at the header. If you put a big cam in it with a big lift or are using high ratio rockers like 1.7s and...
