    wheel dilemma

    I made this little wooden thingy that tests the different rim widths and tire sizes. There didn't seem to be a problem at 17x10. Can anyone shed some light as to what this guy was talking about?

    Gingerbreadman is planning a stag and needs some ideas.

    If they are getting married out-of-town, make sure that the location even has strippers or a topless bar. I got married in Maui and only a couple day before the wedding did I realize that this location was "family friendly." Just as good as getting married at Disneyland.:nonono:

    wheel dilemma

    extreme offset? The guy at PerformancePlusTire said that the 17x10s I plan for the rear has a real extreme offset and he would not recommend them for my car. I measured my car and this seems like it would be perfect. Which one of us is correct? Diameter: 17" Width: 10" Backspacing: 4.5"...

    Help Buying 69 Notchback

    Buy the car that you want. I bought a 68 coupe from a friend of my brothers, did some work on it until I found a 69 Mach 1. Both cars needed MAJOR restoration and I (stupidly) jumped the gun on both. I guess the lesson is: Take your time, find the car you want in the condition you want. It's...

    Sometimes life deals you lemons...

    I wish you the best of luck in whatever your decision may be. I know many people who have had bitter divorces and it is something that I hope I never have to go through.

    wheel dilemma

    THANKS!! I know the AR Cobra 427s will be a little different, but now that I see that rim on a classic stang, it just doesn't do it for me. :( Man, the rim websites out there are total Crap. The search mechanisms in there need to take into account bolt patterns and offset. Some engines...

    wheel dilemma

    The ones pictured are the american racing Cobra 427s. I like them, but have never seen a pic of a classic mustang with them. Can Anyone tell me if spacers are a smart (safe) thing to do? There are some other rims that I like out there, however I would need ~1.5" spacer to make them fit...

    wheel dilemma

    I know the Torq, thrusts are everywhere, but I still like 'em. They are the last on that short list because they are so abundant, that't one reason I don't have the Junk Yard Dog on the list. As far as the Magneto's go.....eh, they're okaaaaay.

    wheel dilemma

    I have a '69 Mach 1 that I'm working on. It is in the very early stages of restoration. No cosmetic items have been done but the frame, brakes, and suspension are all good. The dilemma comes with the fact that I just accepted a new job in another state and now have to move the money pit...

    KICK PANEL SPEAKER SOLUTIONS?????

    So an Audiovox amp will outperform a McIntoch head unit with respects to sound quality? :nonono: This is not really true. Someone can buy a high-quality headunit, good drivers, and they might sound good for the person buying the equipment. They might not out-volume separates, but can be...

    Best way to clean and strip underside?

    I have a nasty scar from where something like that happened a year ago. Piece of metal I was cutting got wedged under the strap of my sandal. When I finally managed to stop hopping around and peel it off, a nice chunk of skin came with it. Of course, do you think I would learn? noooooo.

    How To Install A Door Skin

    I just did the same thing to my doors except I coated the bottom third of the interior of the interior door with a rubberized undercoat and applied Damplifier sound deadener to the skin before I put it on.

    Tail Light Panel Repair

    I've got a dent in the rear tail light panel from the PO and am looking for a way to fix it without replacing the whole panel. At first, the dent looks like there is a small dink on the upper lip of the tail light panel, but when you either put a straightedge along it or put the fender...
