    Why I hate coil spring compressors...

    I am not sure how that would work for our cars? How would you get it under the spring....or does one end just slip in between the spring coils?

    What is a non-locking rear end?

    Heya, welcome aboard. Keep up the questions. No question is stupid. There are 2 kinds of stupid people on webboards. One the stupid person that is afraid to ask a stupid question and then the stupid person who knows nothing and masks that by ragging on people who ask stupid questions! I...

    alright who messed up my motor mounts

    The cheap repop ones would sometimes work. At one point I had the local store ship in 6 of em and just used the best one. The ford ones lined up right the first time I dropped the engine down on them..

    alright who messed up my motor mounts

    I had good luck with getting them from ford. Just go to any ford dealer and to the parts department. This was about 5 years ago, and they were $100 then, but the fit was perfect and they have held up to a lot of abuse.

    Crazy 67 fastback prices

    HAHAAHA, chelle I would think you were an expert on the differences between 67s and 68s, since your car had fenders from both!:D

    The #$##@ fan hit my new radiator

    That sucks....but I have been there. We were about done with the reassembly and ready for the road in the next week.....one night I was up late putting little stuff on. Next day I came out to find that I had closed the hood on a ratchet....and buckled the paint. As far as a fan, I tried the...

    FIRE EXTINGUISHER

    Yeah, thats why I have one. At the tender age of 15 I watched a guy try to put out a car fire with a hubcap and dirt from along side the road......lets just say it was a good idea, but a waste of time....

    Exhaust Fit

    I bought some of my stuff like the over the axle pipes, etc and then had the exhaust shop custom fit it. I had an ARTIST do my exhaust work, but you can get a much smoother setup starting with mandrel bent stuff and then having it fit to the car.

    Do ignition systems really do anything?

    hehe....of course I did recently complain that I needed to replace my ball joints....until I realized that I last did my frontend 9 years ago.......adjustment every 10-12 months, replacement 2 years. About right......I just like to be done with stuff once I am done!

    How to identify a 289 vs 302?

    yeah, all 67s were 289s, 68 could be 289(2bbl) or 302(4bbl) IIRC.

    67 disk brake swap

    You would plumb it in from the rear bowl of the MC (goes to the front brakes), but before the distribution block. Easy easy!

    67 disk brake swap

    ok, I did this with 70 parts. Dont know if you are using power brakes as part of this. I didnt. I used a (I think) 74 maverick MC. Ask for one that is from a car with front disk, rear drum, non power. It will have the right push and travel. You will need some adapters or custom lines to...
