    What are some good things to clean out my engine?

    Simple Green. It is the only thing I use for my engine, wheels, or otherwise. It will not strip the clearcoat from your engine parts and works VERY well. Not terribly expensive, either. Just go to the local auto parts store, Wal-Mart, ect. :nice: *Edit* hmmm, proabably should have read...

    Hatch Adjustment?

    The hatch should be adjusted with the black rubber mounts you see above the tailights. They screw in and out, adjusting up and down as you go. If you need a new one, 5.0Resto has them cheap, or go to a junkyard and you can usually find a good one. As far as the door sagging, don't use used...

    What should I do next?

    J&J Autobody in Upper Marlboro. They do great work, and can do custom. Don't have the # with me, call Pete's shop though, Nate (the machanic) has his '93 LX convertable in there right now getting re-done. :nice:

    What should I do next?

    I did not realize that Keith Craft could get you a short block that cheap! Of, and he's already been OWNED by the HP disease! Seen the stats on his Cobra? :D :nice:

    What should I do next?

    For some reason alot of Convertables won't fit a 4 point brace on the K member, has to do with the extra stuff the factory does to them. Just get a Ford Racing Cobra shortblock to fit in with the budget. Then add AFR heads, F-cam, Twisted Wedge or Edelbrock intake, and an S-trim. 11 second...

    springfield motorsports

    Been to alot of the shops around in Md, never Exxcesive or Springfield. Heard good and bad about both, so I have not opinion. Shops I have been to in Md, and my 1-10 rating of them: :D Espeut Performance-10, would not take my car anywhere else if I could not do the work myself! :nice...

    Mustang Junkyard in waldorf??

    TONS of fox bodies there. Prices depend on what time of the month it is for him. He's a nice guy, but sometimes you'll get a great price on a part, and sometimes he'll try to rape your wallet! Definately worth trying out though. Give them a call. :nice:

    Replacement carpet in a foxbody

    Yeah, I just ordered the carpet also. Did not need the rest of the kit. Let the Carpet lay out for a day in The Garage, then stripped out the old interior, installed the new, then let it sit for another 2 days while I was waiting for the new seats to show up. Took me 20 minutes to bolt in the...

    Replacement carpet in a foxbody

    Yeah Bernie, I saw them. Just was not sure until a little while ago if I'd have the weekend off. Looks like I'll be there, though. by the way, the carpet set from 50Resto cost $89, they don't charge shipping, and it showed up in a few days. :nice: Also, if you've got a gray & black...

    1993 Cobra Convertable

    You think he built it or he was some former Honda owner that got lied to when he bought it? I've seen a black GT vert running around here done up like a '93 Cobra and it looks REALLY good, but I am with you, if you are gonna do it, don't try talking BS that it is real, or you'll get called on...

    Replacement carpet in a foxbody

    Bernie, I replaced my gray carpet with new black carpet about 2 months ago. Used the set from 5.0 Resto, fit absolutely perfect! No problems what-so-ever! Also put in '03 GT seats and some other stuff. If you go to the Bennegan's with us this weekend you'll see it, I plan on driving the car...

    Cowl cover

    I just bought and received one of those. I think (not sure) it was the same place you have in that link. If so, I'd say go with it, it only took a few days to come in, and the finish is really nice. Not much prep work needed at all. I have a feul pressure guage mounted to my cowl grill...

    About to post a Question? SEARCH the threads first!!!

    ^-----I kinda tend to agree with that. One of the reasons I post here is to try and help out others who may not know about some of the old stuff. It is nice to pass on knowledge. Let's look at this: This new kid is 18 years old. By some miracle, he does not buy a Honda, but an '89 GT, and...
