    Who makes electric cut outs

    As you described the encounter originally, I'm still not sure why you'd want to essentially lure a guy into a street race who is minding his own business. What would it prove if you smoked him? Secondly, and even worse, what if he smoked you? I hate to admit it myself, but it is possible if...

    Mrs. HistoricMustang

    Historic, this thread had been dormant for so long I clicked on the first page without realizing I had seen it before. I didn't notice it before, but aren't there two GM products sitting in your carport? I would have thought you were a dyed in the wool Ford man. With that being said, however...

    Who makes electric cut outs

    I don't know the supplier you "need", but if you don't mind me asking, why would this be "sweet"? :shrug:

    Full Paint job

    And a very bad opinion, might I add. :rolleyes: You can't get a really good paint job on a little red wagon for that price. :D :rlaugh: :lol:

    Good Disc brake conversion kit for 66?

    IMO, if you want to run 17" or larger wheels, this is the best setup in terms of bang for the buck. There are other much more expensive kits out there, but you won't notice a marked difference over this setup with those kits given your intended use.

    Car CD Player - need suggestions

    Hell, Zookeeper's right. Forget the permanently mounted ****nit or whatever and just get you a portable CD player or an ipod with headphones. Enjoy either devices during rest breaks, but the sweet sound of highly efficient valvetrain and open exhaust should be plenty entertaining in the interim.

    Car CD Player - need suggestions

    Rather than take the gutless way out with an edit, I would like to apologize to you Platonic. I guess I got a little overzealous without checking your link first. After further review, the Rockford MP3 unit is very cool and offers some unique features. It would likely serve Cheapsk8 well as I...

    Car CD Player - need suggestions

    Uh, an ipod is an MP3 player, the only difference being that its the most widely supported, most advanced MP3 player in the World today. It will do everything your MP3 player will do, only better.

    Open "Ricing" of MustangGurl's Civic

    I'm 33, and I had a crazy ass friend who bought a 70's Toyota pickup in the 80's than ran for $50. Of course, you can do the math, he was only a teenager when he bought it, and I'm not even sure he was 16 at the time. The funny thing is that he commandeered another good friend to go for the...

    Finally, a clean pass....or three !!

    You do realize that you're turning into the peer pressuring/bad influencing type of person that Brianj600 was for you, don't you? The turbo has so much taken over your persona at this point that you can no longer resist it, right, much like what happened to Dod Oc in Spiderman 2? It must be a...

    Yes, all engines that are relevant to your question on this forum have a harmonic balancer.

    Granada questions, not just brakes.

    I couldn't agree more, and it especially makes more sense if you plan on rear disks in the future.:nice:

    TKO 500 in a classic

    I'm certainly no expert on this subject, but from what I've been able to ascertain about this issue, its not that the TKO 500 or 600 won't fit in the transmission tunnel of a '65 or '66 just fine. The issue is how the transmission fits with respect to the driveline angle necessitated by the way...

    Car CD Player - need suggestions

    The problem I see with a portable CD player hooked up to your RCA's is that portable CD players don't normally have as much anti-skip technology as automotive CD players. You should be able to use an automotive CD changer unmounted with the remote if it is a wire type remote. I don't think a...

    Car CD Player - need suggestions

    The only RF CD players I'm aware of are CD changers. I can't believe, however, that your car rides so rough that a mounted CD player wouldn't work. I'd have believed that 10-15 years ago when CD players hadn't been around that long because the first ones did skip badly, but in my experience, a...

    NSFW:Now THIS is how to sell a classic Mustang

    I don't know if it would help sell a Mustang or not. First, I hardly even noticed the car. Second, from the little I did notice, the car looked like crap in comparison. Third, that has a tendency to create interest in something other than buying a car. Nevertheless, she is :flame: hot.

    Opinion Please -- Contemplating a rear end swap

    I agree that for that price you should buy it if its in decent shape. The only way you'll get a better deal is if you get real lucky like I did. I spotted a '77 Lincoln Versailles about 7 years ago and kept my eye on it. I noticed it hadn't moved from the carport after a few fly bys, and I...

    Metal Fender Flares for 65 Mustang

    No biggie. I see you post on here all the time, and I knew you just misunderstood the question because I know you are very familiar with this subject. I wouldn't have even pointed it out but for the fact that it would have created a huge tangent on this thread that would have confused the...

    Merry Christmas!

    Among other things, my fiance got me a nice custom car cover from Mustang's Unlimited for my '65 so I can move my car to live with me instead of 2.5 hours away at my parents. :nice:

    Need Help

    Agreed. The recommendations are overkill, IMO, but some excess is always a good thing so you have room to grow, right? With that being said, look for a set of used World heads or GT40's of one type or the other on Ebay, etc., if you have price limitations that prevent the use of the heads...
