    Yikes - Stangnet Told Me Wax Hurts Mustangs!!!!

    Pick any stang on this site that you want, and I'll sell it to you for $5k. But you have to go pick it up yourself.

    White turbines

    My biggest concern is just how long they'll stay white and how often I'll have to clean them. I guess if I'm bored one weekend, I'll give it a shot. Worst case scenario - I don't like it and have to get them sand blasted back to normal. I'm getting new wheels by next spring anyway.

    How much paint?!

    It would be better to pay a little more and do it right the first time. If you go the cheap Maaco route, you'll probably be doing it all over again in 3-4 years.

    Thumbs up for MPS

    They want to charge me $100 for one headlight wiring harness...so I guess I'll never know how fast their shipping is.

    White turbines

    Anyone have pics of white turbine wheels? I'm going to wait until I need to replace my tires to get new wheels. But I think, in the meantime, I might paint my turbines white. The car is dark red/burgundy - don't have any pics on my work puter. edit: Got a pic - and the 2nd one is my...

    yay, more interior changes

    You need to get that fan shroud, serpentine belt and plug wires chromed, you slacker.

    Another coupe/capri mix PICS!!

    I don't care too much for the nose job. It makes the car look too front-heavy. Maybe if it had a Cobra rear bumper. :shrug: The engine, on the other hand, is teh ballz. A for effort. Still better than converting a 4-eye to an Aero. :nonono:

    engine bay ready for paint- pics

    Are you going to replace the brake booster? I noticed you painted it-including the shaft that goes into the master cylinder.

    How much is my car $worth$

    Just because you can get a used 5.0 for $500 doesn't mean he couldn't sell his recently rebuilt one for $1000. And I said "1 or 2 hundred" for the tranny. I'd be surprised if he could get $300 for an auto tranny unless it had been built. He could easily make $2-3k off the car...why else would...

    How much is my car $worth$

    What was done to the engine? You could probably get at least $1,000 just for the engine if it runs well - more if it has aftermarket heads or intake. Another 1 or 2 hundred for the tranny if it's in good shape. If the interior is in good shape, that'll be worth a couple hundred (especially...

    Can anyone help me find a part number need midpipe to header nut that threads on stud

    The nuts in the link I posted yesterday should fit if you can't find anything locally.:shrug: The parts store (or a garage) might also be able to rethread the nut you have. If nothing else works, you can drill out the old stud and just replace it with a bolt. But, if you already replaced...

    Embroidery Too Big?? -new seats

    Not something I'd do, but they look good. Glad you like them, but for a couple hundred dollars more you could've gotten some nice, light-weight racing seats. Car looks great though. Good job.

    New with pics..

    Yeah, I thought the same thing when I was your age. I'm sure everyone else did too. Driving is the easy part - knowing what to do in certain situations and anticipating the actions of other drivers only comes with experience. Give it 10 years and you'll be saying the same thing I am now, sonny.

    40mpg I did it!!! 40mpg

    I'm pretty darn patriotic - ex-soldier, still work for the Army, my dad was a factory worker....and I still say that American cars are crap compared to Euro and Japanese cars when it comes to economy and reliability. I'm all for American pride - but I'd have a much fuzzier feeling if the cars...

    Ricers really do think their farting exhaust sounds good

    :OT: Do you have any sound clips of the Violators? I'm thinking about picking some up. :shock:

    New with pics..

    Yeah, tell me about it. My first car was an 82 dodge charger 2.2....which would've been a decent little car if it ever started. I'm the only person I know who never got to drive their first car. :nonono: I can't stand seeing so many nice cars get totalled by new drivers. I don't care how...

    Fords in Euorpe *PICS*

    Your right about the cost to ship the vehicles - but that's only a small fraction of the total cost. You'd also have to convert them to meet American safety specs - which can cost around $10k - plus pay customs, taxes and registration on top of that. So it's really not worth it. It's the...

    Don't sell your Fox

    I'm just arguing because it gives me something to do at work...:shrug: :stupid:

    Can anyone help me find a part number need midpipe to header nut that threads on stud

    Try these: http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/iwwida.pvx?;item?item_no=MAC-S716%20%20%20%20%20%20%201&comp=LRS Or take the header to the parts store with you if you have to. Then just find a nut that fits. Or buy some new headers.
