    I got a question

    That sounds pretty good. I'll have to look into that. Thanks I know some of the guys here have done the 8.8 swap, maybe they'll chime in with some info.

    I got a question

    You aint kiddin'!! The custom lowering shackles. I think the drop is about 1" with using them. Those won't cause any pinion or driveline alignment problems would they? I need to buy new leaf springs anyway, so I think I will stick with lowering it with springs and shackels. I would like...

    door weatherstrips

    I have also been looking for those. I have'nt seen anybody that carries them. There is a used set on ebay right now from Rob Milton. They look to be in pretty good shape. If yours are really bad this might be an option for now...

    dolfan, any news....

    dolfan: I noticed your from Havasu. I just left Kingman about 8 years ago. Stuck here in N.C. now. There was once a 72 Gran Torino Sport that lived in Havasu. Beautiful, red with orange laser stripes. Do you happen to know if it's still around?

    64 1/2-66, V8, 8", rear axles

    I guess I should have explained why I asked. I want to do the 5 lug swap on my MII. And these axles are supposed to be an exact fit. Thanks

    64 1/2-66, V8, 8", rear axles

    Where do you guys get your axles? I have done several searches and have come up with nothing. I guess I just assumed that anything for the classic Mustangs could be bought new. I'm just looking for the factory 28 spline axles 5 lug, for an 8 inch. Trying to get an idea on price. Thank you

    Rear end problem (uneven)

    I have the same problem with my MII. Both shackels are there, it's just the left side is rotated all the way foward. I have'nt gotten to that point yet to get up in there and see what's going on, it's not being driven though, I'm in the process of restoring it. Maybe this is similair to his problem.

    trim resto

    I tried never-dull also before I started sanding and it worked well on some of the pieces that wer'nt that bad. But like my roof rail trim, it was almost black, a very, very dark grey when I started, and never-dull did'nt do anything for that. And then once I got the roof rail pieces done it...

    trim resto

    That is probably the worst news I have ever heard. After working this hard on it, I hate to think that I have to keep doing this over and over. Does anyone know how you go about re-anodizing aluminum? Or any downsides to clearcoating aluminum? I need to check on that stuff. If it will...
