    Favorite mustang color?

    Fave color..mine!:D Dark Candy Apple Red. I hate the other red (redfire, kinda pink) on the newer cars.

    Interesting info on Boomtubes

    No, the place I was working didn't withhold the amount I told them to for taxes and I wound up paying this year.:notnice: Been out of work since last Dec. but recently found a temp. job; hope it lasts awhile. We've got a 15% unemployment rate here.

    Check out this car cover

    I checked their site and they charge by the square foot. You download a measurement file and fill it in, take pics and they give you a quote. Probably scary expensive. But definitely a cool idea.

    Goodbye Shaker 500, hello Pioneer, Sony, Fosgate system!!

    Am I right in assuming there is no sound deadening from the factory in the doors or did you remove it in favor of dynamat? I'd like to cut down on road/tire noise. Do you think it would help with that?

    Interesting info on Boomtubes

    :nice::nice::nice::nice: Still the best sounding axleback I've heard on these cars and as an added benefit; the only one near a reasonable price!

    How much did you get for trading in your 05-07 mustang gt?

    2008's are selling for $18,000-18,500 at auctions, then a dealer will jack them from there for their profit. It seems when dealers go to auctions, mileage, options, etc... don't matter.:shrug: I went to six dealers including Carmax and they all offered me the same amount exactly. This is way...

    NHRA Rules and Battery Relocation

    Not sure but I think the battery has to be separated from the drivers compartment; in other words, in the trunk. Also, a sealed battery box bolted down and vented to the outside. kill switch, fused??? Hopefully someone has the latest rules. It also depends on the class you run in as some...

    Annoying Squeek

    Any suspension mods other than wheels that might be a factor?

    corsa extreme?????

    I can't believe anyone would pay that for an axleback when you can have these: Mustang GT Boom Tube Stainless Axleback (05-08) that sound just as good in my opinion, (everybody's is different though). Very little drone and awesome sound.

    I really like my Stang!!

    I agree with you, best overall Mustang Gt ever. Luckily parts are out there to fix all of the shortcomings when we can afford them. If the car was perfect, it would be out of my price range.

    attendance sheet

    I'll be there Fri; looks like the only day they're not calling for rain. 6 1/2 hr. drive from NC and I have to come back the same day.:eek:

    Distributor Cap and Rotor issues

    The 302 and 351W distributors are not interchangeable(the 351W is about a half inch taller). You either have a 351W distributor or you have problems. Try getting a cap and rotor for a 351W. If you want the female cap, try a 69-72 model cap; personally, I would return the wires as I hate the...

    Saw a 2010 GT in person *pics*

    The worst part is that cheap ugly black plastic they used for the lower body trim: I loved the 05-09 body color there. Front fender is very Camaro/Firebird like. The butt is butt ugly. The wheels are terrible. Looks the 05-09's will become desirable like the Foxes did.

    STEEDA UPPER CONTROL ARM

    I haven't seen it, but it's not real sturdy and is just bolted on. I've seen aftermarket pieces that were 1/4" thick and had dual mounting points for the arm. Either way, it should probably be welded if you run slicks and outrageous h.p.

    67-69 Spindles

    Must have been because I bought new bearings for 67 and they fit. The info here is correct though. One quick way to tell is to look at the bearing section of the NPD catalogue which lists the different thread sizes used. Good info:nice:

    67-69 Spindles

    I'll add to the confusion: I swapped my 67 spindles (drum brakes, 6 cyl, car) for some V8 disc spindles. The V8 spindles were a larger diameter. Being a 67, my car could have had some carry-over parts from the previous year.:shrug:

    Leaf Spring Suggestions

    If you are worried about the back being too low, use standard eye 4 1/2 leafs. If you have original leafs, any new spring will probably raise it considerably.
