    Which system provides a crisper, more accurate timing signal - Unilite or Pertronix?

    Oh right, the cougar. You know, a great name for that car would be Nessie.:nice:

    Oh yeah...........well............... at least I don't have a fish in my pants. It might still smell a little like I did from last night though. :rolleyes: BTW, if you think the Cheap one is going to lay out 35k for something he thinks he can build himslef with a little paper mache and...

    Yo Chepsk8.................

    A what? A baking powder? You talking about the Civic or have I missed something important? Did he finally get her the Stang she deserves and then pull the rug out from under her? Dan, coming along but still not finished, this is the Spring though, I feel it, Pak is back.

    What would be the best disc brake swap option for my situation?

    For some reason he doesn't have them up on his site yet but he has been selling them on ebay. Looks like he has two sets left: http://motors.search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZmustangsteve66 The pic of my car shows my old original 14" styled steel wheels still. The new ones are (or rather will be) 17"...

    Here's what I've been up to (66 fb, work in progress)

    I've wondered a few times what had happened to you but you have pbviously been busy, nice job BTW. I thought for sure my car would have been done by spring 05' but October made 3 years since the accident and if I get on the road by this spring I'd still be happy. Funny how it took less than a...

    convertible top replacement. Should I do it myself?

    I plan to tackle mine this spring, I got this car as a hobby not to build it with my checkbook and the only way I know how to learn is to do. Here is a quick review of what it involves if you change your mind: http://www.convertibletopguys.com/topmanual.shtml I picked up a copy of the Mustang...

    What would be the best disc brake swap option for my situation?

    I was in a simillar situation with my 69' and opted for the Mustang Steve 13" Cobra conversion since I wanted 17" rims anyway. Of cource now Steve also offers a new conversion to the 2008 12.5" Mustang GT brakes which only costs about $400 and I believe tucks into 16" rims as well.

    Which system provides a crisper, more accurate timing signal - Unilite or Pertronix?

    My only experience has been with pertronix but it has yet to fail me, with the flame thrower coil I have been very happy. They even claimed I could only use it with a stock dizzy but I was able to modify it and ditch like a 3rd of the parts and make it work just fine with my Accel Mechanical...

    If I know Dan he'll just whine that it's not a CJ though. He can find the downside to anything no matter what an unusual combo it is.:rolleyes:

    Interior Color scheme

    My opinion is two tone should be contrasting colors like red/white for example not red/red.

    Sanity check before I buy a 1969 Coupe

    A salvage title does kill a cars value for sure, I know, my car was totalled 4 years ago. The only reason I am rebuilding it is because I got a very nice settlement and my car is titled in Massachusetts but I live in NH where they do not title cars this old and as such no salvage title could be...

    DIY Painting Opinions Wanted

    I have to agree on the new Duplicolor Lacquer paint for the first timer. I have seen some folks use it a while back and it really was a nice easy method to use. For the type of car you are building and your budget I think you should at least check it out for consideration. Good luck, I hope...

    Wheel debate

    I think a Shelby 10 spoke would look real nice on there or the later Boss style 10 spoke racing rim would be a nice and fresher approach to a boring TT2 racing look. I also think a 68/69 styled steel wheel would be a good look for a somewhat custom but correct looking mustang option, with or...

    Has anyone installed Fiero seats in their car?

    That is all correct and the headrests are not seperate on any of them. They are built more like a Mach one high back seat than any of the stock seats with a raising headrest. Aside from only the first two years having the speakers in them the only other difference is that each year had different...

    Has anyone installed Fiero seats in their car?

    Well if they are the type with speakers then that may be all you need to replace unless for some reason your foam is really really bad. The Mr. Mikes kit is complete with all new foam and batting to freshen them up like new otherwise. Good luck and keep us posted.
