    The Reenmachine '65 Fastback Vintage Racer Unveiled!

    I build and race radio-control cars as a hobby -- actually, I'm getting a little obsessive about it. We started a Vintage class at our local track, so of course I built a Mustang! I took inspiration from the Shelby/Terlingua Racing Team '67 Mustang notchback T/A cars, and changed the yellow to...

    G-Bar rear exhaust photo

    Looks good to me, and that's brilliant to add flanges after the mufflers for easy tailpipe removal. I'm just now putting a g-Link in a customer car and will do the same thing if my exhaust guy can't get the pipes up and over. I just had the exhaust run under the housing for a Heidt's 4-link...

    They really are that much of a class act, but that's the finish they're shipping pretty much everything in now.:nice:

    The Wilwood Superlite Brake Kit Thread

    Tim- I wasn't able to get a straight answer out of anyone at Wilwood about the 13" kit. The 11-3/4" kit pushes the wheels out 3/4" per side and that totally screwed me up on the '68 in the shop here. I thought that one possible fix would be to upgrade to their 13" kit but they could not give...

    The Reenmachine DOHC '67 Shelby Clone Convertible Progress

    Hey Darreld- I can't find a pic for some reason out of my 1000+ pics of the build. :nonono: The inertia reel was mounted to a reinforced area behind the door in the area above where the rear window crank would have been. Everything was concealed by the large Shelby-style interior quarter...

    2005 mustang nose on classic mustang - has it been done?

    The Ring Brothers don't try to make their cars unrecognizable. That's the beauty of their art -- the bodies are heavily modified and often re-proportioned but the end result is still very recognizable as a classic Mustang.

    2005 mustang nose on classic mustang - has it been done?

    Believe me brother, I'm with you on all counts noted above. I have devoted this part of my life to it. Making a classic Mustang work like a new one is an amazing, worthy, and rewarding feat. My point was that if you make it look like a late-model on top of all that, internally and externally...

    2005 mustang nose on classic mustang - has it been done?

    This I understand -- taking a great modern car and giving it the looks of a classic. But why do so many people want to turn that around? They want an old Mustang that doesn't look like an old Mustang, has an entirely modernized interior that doesn't look like the classic's, modern...

    SSBC Power disc brake conv. problem on 66

    Sounds to me like you're sucking air back into the front circuit somewhere, probably pretty close to the master cylinder. Go through all of the connections again. Are you sure there's not a leak somewhere? Usually air in = fluid out as well... Not sure what you mean about the first hole...

    fiberglass hoods

    K.A.R. has the cowl hoods now as well. They usually have them on eBay (seller karmustang) but I think someone hit the BIN on the cowl one. I'm sure there will be another up there w/in a couple of days. The reason I bring it up is that there will be detailed pics there of the hood and its fitment.

    And thank you for listening. When these things go more smoothly we all win.

    Updated TCP G-Bar triangulated 4-link...

    That is mostly correct, except for the non-Mustang part. I'm fairly certain the 9" housing I used is a Mustang unit and the jig wasn't quite right. I think Blue Oval Man's other housing was an original Mustang unit as well. I'd rephrase that as "...adding a slot between the two pinion-offset...

    Updated TCP G-Bar triangulated 4-link...

    I did both an 8" and a 9". I knew the fixture wouldn't work with the 8" (well, it wouldn't bolt on -- it still worked fine for locating the brackets when clamped on) but I had the exact same experience as Blue Oval Man with the 9".

    Updated TCP G-Bar triangulated 4-link...

    If the accuracy's not there in the first place then the slotting won't hurt anything. I had the exact same locating experience with the original Mustang 9" housing I used (it wasn't just the 8" I used which I expected to be off). With slotted holes the fixture would still fulfill the crucial...

    Ad-bots in our threads! Confusing.

    Well, look at that. It turned the word M a g n a f l o w into a link as well.

    Ad-bots in our threads! Confusing.

    I'm not talking about pop-up ads. I'm talking about turning words into links. Is the word "exhaust" in this sentence a link to Magnaflow's website? That's what I'm talking about.

    Ad-bots in our threads! Confusing.

    It looks like there's some new forum "feature" that picks out keywords and makes them links to advertisers' websites. Given how everyone here posts inline links to actual things they're talking about it can be confusing! In the g-Bar thread it already looked like people were posting links to...
