    67 Convertible suspension complete replacement, Advice?

    Well, not all manufacturers use same spec materials for their product. Again, why i.e., Maier leafs w/ cut pro motorsport springs? Why wouldn't a person use the springs from the same place as the leafs????? I believe this what leads to problems. mix-n-match. knda defeats the purpose of the...

    67 Convertible suspension complete replacement, Advice?

    for a do it your selfer, who needs to cut to match springs. that will shoot down a saturday install in your garage, when you thought it would sit this way. I believe MP even has pictures of each combo on a car so you can see how it sits. why put guess work into a one day install? Mine's was...

    67 Convertible suspension complete replacement, Advice?

    I don't know why a person would recommend a co. and have all the problems he does, in regards to not sitting right and so forth. a KIT is just that, a kit, where it all works together. not lower in the rear and not in the front! who needs headaches like that. Both Mustangs Plus and NPD sell...

    OMG WTF HAPPEND HERE!!!!

    maybe a different color would change your outlook. Maybe a flat blue with black flares and lower rockers.I would get rid of the lower rocker molding. they look out of place and throw off the custom theme. but hey, to each his own!

    What should my engine temp and oil pressure be?

    hope this works. finding the real problem instead of shotgunning parts is the way to go. was it no/poor airflow that pointed you to the clutch? the shroud does help. a 10 -20 drop from the shroud wouldn't be unreasonable.

    8'' POSI...

    go to a big auto swap meet. you'll have vendors there selling everything. and most likely, they'll have their shop w/in 50 miles of the meet. for an 8" posi, aftermarket, you're limited to 3.00 or 3.55 maybe a 4.10. w/o some overdrive, 3.55 is turning some rpms at 65

    Ivy Gold pics?

    no problem. I did want to keep it as close to stock as I could:lol: really, that is the combo the car came with. nothing like a vinyl top and lime gold paint to take you right back to 67! and it's nice being a rare color left in the restomod world, that and the top. But, I guess there's room...

    What should my engine temp and oil pressure be?

    are you sure you put the thermostat in the right way? easy check as said earlier, did you also check rad? Looks stock. Make sure you're pulling air thru the radiator. the shroud will help with that. but even w/o one it should still pull air thru it.

    Fact or Fiction

    i was going to do a custom headliner when I was redoing my 67. the problem was that alot of the custom headliners weren't that good. the radius turns in the corners weren't smooth. this was on of my main concerns. I would have had to pay too much for a quality custom headliner. to get it done...
