    Paint and Body Fox Body Painting 101

    Sounds good. There are a couple of paint shops around. I'll hit you up when I see what brand paints they have. I really want to go with a blue but white is the cheapest. I really like the deep blue the new mustang comes in. Bit probably pretty pricey

    Paint and Body Fox Body Painting 101

    I used a standard house key for comparison. These are the worst of the bumper damage. They need to be cleaned out so might be a little deeper when repair starts. It's been like this since I bought the car is to 10 yrs ago.

    Alright Dave, here is my notch http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/threads/dusting-the-notch-off.892828/ Has a few nics in the bumpers but overall solid car. Going to paint it white. What would be a good filler for the front bumper. One spot in particular has a pretty good groove. Thinking...

    Air Compressor Recommendations

    I think they are all the same. Kinda like two major companies probably make them and just put different stickers on them. I have a 60 gal harbor freight I bought well over 6 years ago. I love as it rarely kicks on when I'm doing little projects. I wired it to 220 and I also have a smaller...

    Dusting The Notch Off...

    The rubber around the rear quarter windows has shrunk to the point I can almost see into the area behind it. Those things are pretty pricey for a notch though and as long as the dirt and crap is kept out I'll be good for now. When I sat back in this thing it felt so good. Like hanging out with...

    Welding: How Did You Learn?

    Trial and error, self taught, YouTube, TV, lots of research. I have a 220 might welder and learned to weld with gas and without. I found while there are certain technics to use with different thicknesses, and seams, there are many ways to weld that can be personal preference. I can lay down...

    Dusting The Notch Off...

    I noticed a few more spiders in the yard as of late. Decided to clean up my rv gate area as the neighbors tree drops leaves and the wind blows them under my gate and under my car. Poor dirty notch. I got it all sprayed off. Dirt from recent and past haboobs were in all the nooks and...

    Toasted Clutch

    Unfortunately not. I ordered the rear main seal from American muscle and it won't be here until this week. I'm going to degrease the trans and under the car the best I can while I'm waiting for it to get in. I also needed a new trans mount which will be here this week too.

    (mach 1) Inexpensive Parts To Keep Engine In Good Shape, And When To Flush Fluids?

    It has mach 1 interior. Gauges look right. It says 5 spd but it's an auto. O haven't seen too many of those. Lots of work went in to the body kit. Front mesh looks jacked. Saleen rear spoiler. The VIN is a P42 so if that is true it is a legit mach 1. Pretty cheap for a dealership though...

Well, after driving it for a week or so I feel a slight slippage in the clutch. Mostly at high rpm. Then came the smell of a burnt clutch. So I order a new clutch a...

    Not Sure If You Guys Watch

    I watch and like street outlaws. Same as most, first season was sillyness trying to say everything they did was illegal when the roads were closed and had the huge lighting systems in place. Truth be told, big Chief (Justin) carries that show. The other guys add some hilarity to it but with out...
