    69 Steering Upgrade Recomendations Please!

    First let me say that I am not a purist. I also had some handling and leakage issues on my 69 factory power steering unit. I figured that if it worked good in 69 that I would restore it to its former glory. I sent every piece to Rhodes Restorations in Ohio. He did a complete restoration. It...

    Trunk Finishing

    The Rustolem looks great but I am really not set up for a large spray application. I am thinking of the Hurculon roll on application as mentioned by Cool Beans.

    Getting Ready To Install Two Full Length Floor Pans...any Tips?

    My pans were not a great fit at first either. But with the help of a large hammer I got a great fit. Also remember that the new pans will fit better once the old pan is removed, and they can be pushed into place.

    Dissapointing Results - Have I Missed Something?

    If your engine runs smoothly and you are happy with the performance I would disregard the dyno numbers. You can spend hundreds of dollars to gain an extra horse or two but at the end of the day it won't make a significant difference in the way a car performs on the street.

    Getting Ready To Install Two Full Length Floor Pans...any Tips?

    There is another option as well. If your seat risers are in good shape you can just use the partial pans, front and rear, a lot less welding and those seat risers are a real struggle to remove. That's also my dogs favorite position.

    Getting Ready To Install Two Full Length Floor Pans...any Tips?

    I did mine in my 69 as you described. If I did it over again I would do as horse recommend. Much less welding. But in my case I am a one man show and a full pan is a beast for one person to handle. Are you doing toe boards as well.

    Let me speak to the welding skills mentioned above. I had never welded a day in my life untill a year ago. Since then I purchased a welder, viewed hours of You Tube mig wilding videos, and completed major sheet metal repair on my Mustang, saving a ton of money.

    Bolts are above. There is a hole at the rear of the front fender where the plastic splash guard attaches. Does the fender, torque box brace attach in the same hole. I don't recall my car having one of those braces but it's been a long time apart.
